I don’t know why, but it seems like my last post is lost somewhere in Mod-land.
Anyway, DY, unless I misunderstood your last post, this whole thread has been based on the misconception that the two sides were arguing over the money, when in fact it’s the Chosson’s side offering to pay half (more than its share of the wedding) and the Kallah’s side asserting that it should pay two thirds (like the rest of the wedding).
This is no argument, and I’m sure it can be resolved in a friendly manner. The whole thread (including some of your posts) seems rather misleading, and not up to your usual standard.
