Big. I went to the most convenient seminary for me, and had a job that enabled me to get to a better paid position later on. But guys look at my resume and think I am representative of that place. For me, not going to seminary would have made sense. I was scared to risk appearing so out of the box. 🙂
I remember all the warnings with Irene, which turned out to be nothing. I remember when an unpredicted storm caused tremendous damage to my block.
I don’t blame them. It’s really hard to pack up and move with kids, if you’re not feeling well, or for the elderly, to spend time in a shelter with strangers and leaving your home unoccupied. This time, they were wrong to stay.
Yes. Usually.
Hashem could have struck the lawmakers with lightning, but He didn’t. So let’s not try to figure out schar v’onesh.
Our lights are flickering.
HaLeivi – It’s cute sometimes, and sometimes boring.
It would depend on the person.
It should be fine as long as you don’t drive.
HaLeivi – that was predictable. Doesn’t mean I predicted it personally.
I have determined that it would cost me less money to take car services wherever I go, than to learn to drive and buy or lease a car.
/the joys of living in NY during a hurricane.
In the spirit of PBA:
Maybe some of you (boys) can explain what type of girl you are looking for, so that we can start working on ourselves a few years before getting “on the market”.
I’m looking for a girl who comes from a rich family, but is willing to be mistapek b’muat.
One who cares about her family and being a wife and mother more than she cares about making money, but is making money.
One who always looks beautiful, but never makes me wait for her to be ready to go to a social even.
One who likes to have fun, but in a tzanua fashion.
One who is worldly, but not more worldly than I am, and deeply respects my opinions on all political and religious issues, and never disagrees on anything.
One who has gone to college and is educated, but never talked to boys.
One whose parents will support us so that I don’t need to ever work, but will never make demands on me at home.
One who is beautiful outside, and also has a lovely personality and is not too vain and full of herself.
One who cooks well and is always thin.
Can anyone help me find this girl?
OK, mine wasn’t quite on the level. But you get the idea.
I wouldn’t, but I understand why people would. I have only male cousins in my age range, several of which are in marriageable range. I would probably be interested if they weren’t my cousins. I’d be scared of certain family quirks, which are normal in us as individuals, being intensified in our kids.
Almost as hard as shidduchim!
I never wear heels. I’d wear heels only if my husband liked it, and not when he wasn’t around. Who wants everyone evaluating how attractive they are? Plus, if I save the heels for when they’re really needed, my feet will be better able to handle them. / end monologue
Now, for insecure questions of the opposite gender: Am I too tzanua, sincere, pretty, happy, healthy, confident, educated, articulate, creative to get married?
Just kidding!!!
Mezuzahs, so they can keep an easy mitzva.
Yes, if your head is far away from your neck.
But I can’t understand it in Yiddish! Why can’t it be in English so normal people can read it?!
All you need is a summary, provided by yours truly: Darf nisht gein tzu de grocery biz de vint iz kalt un vasser is kimmen arup shnell!
Why not?
Anyway, it’s not our job – remember, Hashem split the Yam Suf. That would have been very difficult and draining!
I only post when procrastinating. Otherwise I only read the interesting titles.
Most topics and posters here are very predictable.
Mommamia – I think we have a different sense of humor. Is it really not clear from my posts that I do not take this seriously?
May you and your family and posters on this website who are looking find their zivugim bkarov and build batim neemanim bYisrael. And everyone else who may read this.
Syag Lchochma – He can join YWN, then you can ask the mods to email me his screenname, if I like his posts the mods can tell you my email. Sounds good?
Nope. We probably won’t be able to fill that request. They should both join a dating site.
WIY I think the mekubal tells you what you want to hear. Apparently I didn’t pay enough to get more than one compliment. But you seem like a really nice person and that was a nice thing to say.
WIY Thanks for asking. I love telling people what I’m looking for – it is fun to compare their idea of each adjective with my idea of it.
I’m looking for someone healthy, slim, good middos, highly intelligent. Yiras Shamayim and has a Rav. Organized and relaxed. Not scared of insects. Not in this particular order.
That pretty much describes me too.
No one mourns the wicked – Well, I was satisfied with the experience.
Another mekubal I went to told me to work on Kibud Av Va’Eim as a zechus for shidduchim. He told my sister the same thing. I think it’s the one thing parents won’t call him complaining about.
I went to a Mekubal. He said I have Yiras Shamayim and shouldn’t worry about shidduchim.
Seahorse – Really, I was just kidding. I’m 22 and don’t believe that boys should feel they can ask for everything and girls are so self-conscious and guilty for wanting anything at all. What I said was intended to sound ridiculous.
In terms of what I’m looking for – anything self-contradictory is not important to me, except the second sentence where the first part is and the second less so.
They should be asking why doesn’t grandpa go to shul and totty does?
Mammele – I was joking. Not scared of insects and willing to be my knight in shining armor in regard to creeping creatures is kinda important to me though.
I’m writing myself in, since I would make a great President.
I’m looking for someone handsome, brilliant, successful, and charming. Yiras Shamayim and sincere in his learning but sophisticated. Intellectual and muscular. Organized and relaxed. Not scared of insects. Good family. Generous, respected in the community but enjoys being at home
i’m glad about it.
This is a four letter word.
(get it? this)
Assur, if you are dating archaeological fragments for your job.
Sorry, we don’t know anything about facebook.
Daven, then relax – it only takes one! And make sure you network.
