mordechai literally sounds like country yossi… is he?
bigsaaan seresssh bring me a glass of water at once!
funny – bigsan and seresh’s language: “a binga binga boonga”
lol about the salami bologna thing – my whole childhood i tried to figure out what in the world they were saying!
oomis1105- you said everything i was thinking.
i mean the number one rule of dating is: Don’t think that the person will change for you. Religiously, personality-wise, and in terms of addictions, too. i’m not saying that it doesn’t happen, but it’s not as common as the people in this forum seem to think.

aussieboy: i totally don’t. that’s what makes it so funny…
lol this whole misunderstanding what the habit is cracks me up!
hey.
i’m gonna borrow your example. if you know that whenever you see cookies you’ll grab them and eat them even though you resolved in your heart to never eat another cookie, then the best thing to do is to distance yourself from anywhere that cookies might pop up. as much as you prep yourself logically, when that plate of cookies shows up on the kitchen table, it’s hard to resist.
therefore, as much as possible you should try to remove yourself from the circumstances in which your habit-triggers may show up.
i wish i could take this advice too… i think that everyone has “bad habits” that must be conquered…
good luck!
“What conceivable Torah benefit is there to send a girl to seminary in Israel?”
Granted, the year in Israel isn’t for everyone, but for many girls it is a life-changing year and reaps beautiful Torah benefits and rewards.
Eretz Yisroel is a makom of kedusha that catalyzes spiritual growth!
I’m glad that I found this thread because I was thinking of starting one myself. When I started YWN CR a week ago I was thrilled that there was a frum forum for discussing real things. I asked a Q about shidduchim and I received beautiful thought out answers. I was like, “Woah. This place is so cool.” But then, as I started browsing other threads/topics, I realized that there is a bit of sketchiness situations. I saw people constantly identifying their genders and marital statuses. I even saw borderline (or not so borderline) fliratiousness.
I’m not trying to put down YWN CR cuz I think they do a lot of good. I think that maybe the moderators should be a bit more selective in what they allow through the filters. I mean sometimes the comments are just “personal jokes” between posters and totally mess up the train of thought of the entire thread… and often those jokes are between self-identified opposite gender people.
They say “Everything in moderation” and I think that’s what this place needs. A bit more moderation (in terms of moderators) so that we can keep the good emmesdig content and weed out the leitzanus/not-frum-Jew-appropriate stuff!
I actually have the same question. Like all of the Yehi Ratzons in the Aneini… Should you said “Hashem” or the actual name?
Someone, please answer us! 😉
Happiness is knowing where you came from and knowing where you’re going. Even if you’re not smiling and laughing all the time, if you feel that life has purpose and everything you do is in sync with that purpose, then you are really happy.
I was at a vort the other day and I went to get some food. A girl said, “Hello- it’s not good for shidduchim – you shouldn’t eat at vorts.” A looked her straight in the eye and I said, “People who won’t set me up or let me marry their son because I eat at vorts are people who I don’t want to get involved with and I don’t care what they think!” And I proceeded to guiltlessly (not a word) cut a slice of the delicious looking chocolate cake and sat down and ate it.
Just because some people have crazy random standards doesn’t mean that our lives have to be ruled by them. Just a thought…
