Reply To: Crazy Shidduch Story

The aunt redt the shidduch!!! There was some friction with the shadchanis, but I do not know what it was; Dovid’s father is fine with everything – his only concern (generally) is that the boys are able to support their families after they get married (the father’s me’halach is that the boys are on their own after sheva brochos, but he’ll pay his daughters’ tuition through graduate school because he never wants c’v a situation where his daughter cannot provide for herself) – since Dovid gets his degree in June, the timing is fine (but we should not get ahead ourselves here, should we).

“Stranded’s” parents are fine, since they trust the aunt – I’m not sure what is going on with the shadchanis, but I think part of it is that she tried very hard to “place” the girl (family is fine but I think her parents were clear that they simply cannot offer post-marriage support since they still have other kids at home).

OK, I’ll stop being a yenta now (they’ve gone out twice).
