The problem with shiduchim has nothing at all to with age. The issue is that many of these older girls are way more educated then the yeshivah bachur who is learning in the BM the last few years. The girls seems to be more worldly and way independent than they were some twenty – thirty years ago. When it comes to a date the guy is going to be dicussing a chidush from a Ritvah or a Ran and the girl is going to be discussing the Bio-medical cure for heart attacks (chalilah) or the difference between the white and red blood cells. Let’s face it, today we live in a world where many things are about kesef and if the guy does not move himself out into world (business, law, or medical), he’s going to have major tzaros when it comes to shiduchim.
