Are we really going to go through this again?!! Not EVERY boy who isn’t married or EVERY girl who is 25 (I guess that’s way over the hill. ridiculous to think that’s soooo old even for a girl. Yes, it would be great if she were married and she probably cries a lot that she isn’t and I feel bad for her, but let’s be real. 25 is not old.) and single is being picky. And all of you who keep up this type of attitude are guilty of the same thing you are accusing these people of: labeling and pigeonholing people into a very small number of possibilities. I recently heard a first-hand account of a mother who was asking information about a 26 year old boy and she asked “So why isn’t he married yet?” as though the fact that he was 26 and single was an indicator that there must be something wrong. Have we completely forgotten that Hashem runs the world? He is the one that has ultimate say on what happens in the world. What each person does and decides how to go about their life is THEIR choice. But rest assured, if the person was the most picky person in the world and Hashem wanted them married at 18, it would happen! And if they were the most flexible person in the world, Hashem may just have them waiting for many years to get married. This topic really is getting played out and I can’t understand why other people aren’t yet as sickened as I am.
