Reply To: People Who Should Never Get Married

I can’t think of anyone who shouldn’t get married for strictly halachic reasons. There are certain practical reasons, some of which were outlined by Oomis that might prevent people from getting married.

Well, halachicly a man is obligated to get married. So, if you are telling me that there are no strictly halachic reasons to not get married, the natural conclusion seems to be the obligation to get married is never abrogated.

BTW, what “practical reasons” (i.e. non-halachic) did Oomis outline?

On second thought, there are some who maintain that a woman who lost multiple husbands should not marry again. However, how often that is truly enforced* is not really clear.

I think that is more of a recommendation to man not marry such a woman, then a strict proscription.
