Hi guys! long time no read!
The real answers is advertising and networking.
Not harassing or Dreing people A Kup!
Instead of being ashamed and walking out your house with your head down hoping not to get that look you feel you’re getting, like “Oy Nebach that Yentle has two older girls nebach”
Just kindly mention to people you meet, after exchanging small talk of course, that you have a wonderful child that’s single and available, if they would by any chance know of a nice suitable match?
For Instance.. you’re shopping at Pomegranate (they better pay me for this plug) and you pick up a certain cut of meat and this nice woman comes over to you
Stranger; “Excuse me” sorry to bother you but I was wondering, what is that cut of meat called? is it good?
You; Oh it’s called ***** It’s absolutely delicious!!
Stranger; really?
You; Yup, I make it all the time, I have this wonderful recipe I got from my SIL, its very easy, really,….
potential friend (previous stranger)can I have it?
You; sure!!
where you from etc.. yada-yada babble-babble etc..
you; btw have a wonderful child that’s single and available,
by any chance do you know of a nice suitable match?
Potential shadchan/previously stranger; “it’s so funny you asked cuz I have this wonderful neighbor who has this wonderful, kind,
boy who’s looking for a girl like your daughter.
Weddings, grocery, airplane, train, bus, wherever, at shul, (before or after davening.
You never really know, but it’s the best way.
Just please don’t harass, or force it, just be cool.
You can thank me later, or don’t. Just try it.
Hatzlacha!
P.S. If I actually though Pomegranate would send me some,
I’d list the cut of meat along with the recipe. 🙂
