Whoooooa.. DO Not jump into any shidduch ever!! Marriage is 4 life!! NEVER go into a shidduch with ur eyes closed!! After ur married, u will have ur whole life to close ur eyes to the things u dont like about Hubby- take a carefull look now.. (and I dont mean be petty- duh) Ppl dont realize when dating how huge marriage is..

Cookie- It probly wasnt very nice.. but it was SO fun.. I wouldnt really talk about him at all in real life, and it felt really good to vent a lil..

I wrote a really long, respectfull, not sarcastic at all letter to the Mods. It got mysteriously deleted and I couldnt understand why cuz it was absolutely FULL of love, gratitude, and compliments..

I got my subtitle though.

health- lol

and Oy.. The perils of being young and trusting in todays shidduch market..

cshap- aaaaaw he can be friends with my ex!! They can polish ther shotguns together.. and Health can fwd the invite to his ex if things get dull!!

Death wasnt ignored when I was in school.. Or atleast I picked up on the cues.. Death is very important in Judaism- its not something depressing or something to be afraid of- because its not the end. I think if it helps in ur avodas Hashm its good to hav a thought niggling in the back of ur mind that life isnt forever.. It gets u moving.. I think American Culture is very anti like thinking about death( cant think of how to word that) and I personally think as Jews its very healthy to remind ourselves this life is not supposed to b comfy cozy, and we should get to work cuz once we get up there its game over..too late..

mosherose- did I say Diet Dr. Pepper? I meant Gemarah. And it was over the mechitzah..

mosherose- Is it OK if my cousin sometimes calls me by my first name? He usually just says like “uh excuse me..” but yesterday he wanted me to pass him the Diet Dr. Pepper and I couldnt hear him coughing so he called me by my first name. I was takah very embarrased and I couldnt stop blushing the entire seudah..

Dont go to expensive stores?

This is what works 4 me: Shop, come home, feel the guilt, let the excitement wear off, hang it in ur clost for a few days, then return.

No one used capguns where I was, but someone sounded a foghorn. It was really annoying and soo funny at the same time.

Did u watch “a trip to miami” and the “a trip to miami-RESPONSE” !? ( see the other posts)

It was the best laugh I got in a long time!!

ahem

Teens are lazy

“Nice people that would never hurt a fly, sit on their horns as if it would’ve been some sub-machine gun!”

lol- leon- my favorite line.. I totally agree..Thats really what some ppl look like when honking.. I think honking comes from complete lack of patience. It happens very rarely that u need to honk for a good reason.. and I believe ppl who do it often is cuz theyr frustrated, have little patience, and r self centered. 4 some reason, The 10 second rule when someone annoys u doesnt apply when ur driving. A guy goes slow for 3 SECONDS n sum ppl r already honking..patience!!!! Another thing that bothers me is ppl who dont “share the road” – as if putting ur car over an area in the pavement makes it belong to YOU and someone who wants to get there too is called cutting YOU off..

I find flashing ur lights at someone to be less rude.. Its like waving as opposed to yelling “Hey, Moron..!”

“Especially when one grows up in a society/ is born in an era where putting on a hat may make them feel less yirah than not wearing one? “

Hows that?

Thanx bpt. I thought so too.

“If one has good midos and is married with a normal healthy mindset based on simple, common love (yes, I said the dirty L word) there will naturally be respect, caring and unconditional acceptance of one another.”

I think the way it works is the other way around- when there is respect, caring, (ecceptance too I guess) then real love can grow, or in a young couples case- come..

“Marriage is not supposed to be a way to propel your own self image to greater heights of satisfaction based on the others accomplishments.”

Agree, but I dont think thats the issue. The dude is not waking up!! Thats a problem, and it effects the entire home. U cant just turn a blind eye and say- Wer all our own ppl, it shouldnt bother me.. It definately should bother u if someone u care about is going through a rough time with something!!

“A wife / husband has no business whatsoever being the other spouses referee in life. He / she is not the other one’s mashgiach.”

Agreed. But asking for advice on something that is clearly an issue for BOTH, or occasionally waking him up at 10:30 isnt exactly that much.

Marriage is a partnership. Yes, one leaning on the other too much is wrong, and each person needs to be responsible for himself as a whole. But dont make it like this shouldnt be an issue, and it shouldnt bother her in the slightest. That would be very self centerd.

Goq- “look up”- LOL

right now, a bar of shmerlings :)))

They r newly married! (I think. My info cums from CR)

She just met the guy four months ago!

Where is respect coming from??
