    Mi Keamcha Yisroel!! I get such chizuk from seeing the out pouring of tefilla that everyone is undertaking for a complete stranger!Yehuda Tzvi ben Elisheva , May you be inscribed for a healthy and prosperous year with Kol Tuv!

    People who date do not necessarily know their mates better than you do. The Chassidisher way has been working for many years, though it is not to say it can work for everybody.The fact remains, talking to your choson in engagement will not let you know him better. You don’t really know anyone best until you live with them!Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise. I had one child that spoke to her choson( because of their request) , it was absolutely ridiculous and she will be the first one to admit it! Mazel Tov!! Wishing you a great engagement!

    When I got married my husband taught me how to wash the laundry. Now I would never let him do the laundry,I do all of it myself. I feel he can help with other things when necessary. We are both working and certain chores should not be done by men.I guess it depends on how picky you are with your laundry…

    I would never do that!! I do treat them with respect but they have to earn it! You could just imagine all the stories I have to tell. My source is not a good one apparently. So please anyone know of any good sources in Boro Park??

    This is a real sad thread… we definitely are doing something wrong! As hard as we try.. For example, chutzpa is never tolerated in my house but I can’t say my children are as respectful with elders as much as i would like. My husband blames the exposures the kids get today.

    Queen Bee: The girls who are dressing to attract attention KNOW IT!! You can look very good and not attract attention, its all part of what Tznius is all about!! No one says that you have to walk around looking horrible. I deal with many different types of girls in my line of work. I have to tell you it doesn’t suprise me when I hear their are issues, because of the impression these girls make. It’s not just their way of dress, which needs a tikun, it’s how they walk and talk etc.

    What about when someone asks someone how many children they have, when they don’t have any? It can be a totally innocent question and yet so insensitive! The point is before we open our mouth we need to think, is this appropiate under all circumstances?

    Floewy: You are 100% correct. We need all the Yiden out there to hire ONLY yidden! Who else should help our own brothers and sisters? There all all sorts of qualified candidates, you just need to specify what you are looking for! Hire someone you can trust!

    PCS also has an office in Boro Park that help hundreds of candidates. It is a wonderful organization, whoever they are able to help, Hakal Revach. There is no fee either.

    Anyone know of good positions available can also call in to PCS. The greatest tzedaka is helping someone find a job!!

    Every situation is different but maybe try to keep yourself busy with something? We dont know much details like how old you are, are you mArried etc? If you are married I would say take some cleaning project in your house.

    Thank all of you for your input! Besides waiting for test results, I do know someone who was diagnosed with Wilson Disease after being treated by a Pyschiatrist for Bipolar. Thats where the question came from.

    Well to wrap up this thread, I would like to reiterate the purpose of venting here. All of you out there who are married, dont assume it doesnt bother your spouse to share your attention with a blackberry!!!

    Tell me when was the last time you gave information on a bucher that he is addicted to his cellphone, playing ball with his friends etc.?

    Anyway he didn’t have a blackberry before the wedding, only a plain old fashioned phone. My daughtwer never complains about anything, she always makes sholem with the matzav. Though,she has told others( Siblings) its just a sign of immaturity. She hopes he will grow out of it…

    You need to read my posts before answering, I said I never mix in and don’t make any insinuations…. My children have enough to deal with without my interference. I said I was only venting here in the cr, hoping maybe someone else might learn how frustrating it might be to a spouse!

    Aries: Even though your answers are quite smart, they don’t apply to me. This couple is around all the time, saying let’s close our phones wouldn’t work. What bothers me the most, is what my daughter may or may not have to put up with?? He does it when they are sitting alone eating also.Don’t worry I won’t say a word I am just venting…. Any of you guys reading this out there? Can you imagine a wife coming home after a long day at work and wanting to discuss her day and having to compete with your black berry????

    DY: very cute!!!

    Adorable:; I am the dreaded shvigger! What should I say? It’s quite annoying sitting across the table from someone playing with his phone throughout the entire meal!! I wonder if my daughter doesn’t mind it all the time. Don’t ask me to ask her because I would never want to bring it up, to cause any more anguish!What I want to know is what happened to today’s generation? Aren’t there any manners anymore?

    I find it very unclassy the way some people chew their gum, to put it mildly! As far as Tznius is concerned , anything that makes people look can be questionable.

    Always runs: I think we need to STOP looking in our neighbors homes to see what they do and do not have. You never really know what’s going on by your neighbors home inside( unless you live there).Live and let live!
