Sac, I actually have done that, and been told the same, with a big smile on her face, and then find out the nxt day that it is a no go.
dunno,yes, but the girl sometimes decides to get back “later”.
If you know that it is a yes, say it!
And that goes with another peeve that I have.
Why do 2 mature(hopefully) people who are ready for marriage, have to play the game of “hard to get”? There are so many shadchannim who tell me when I say this, that this is how it is.
