“WIY: If she ASKS for your opinion, then fine. But if you’re dating, and she thinks it’s going great, and she decides to take time out of her day to make you a batch of her favorite chocolate chip cookies, and you taste one and your first reaction is “too sweet,” then sorry, but that goes beyond honest critique. There’s a time and place for everything.”
Yes I agree I wouldn’t say it on the spot. But maybe at a later time I would say the something like, “I think your delicious cookies would taste even better with less sugar…”

“Thats it. Im leaving, i might come back once a week or month to post something, but thats it, i never thought you guyz could be so inconsiderate! I never thought jews could be so mean, no wonder so many teens go OTD these dayz. No wonder it seems that there’s no teens here. U guyz just send them away! The nicest users that posted here have already left, now i know why.”
I think the best thing for you is to “unplug” from the internet. You really need to live a little. I say that as someone who cares for you and see that you are in a hole. The internet is “good” in moderation. What you are doing is abusing it and possibly allowing yourself to develop an addiction. You are young. You can do so much. Please don’t waste your youth on the internet.

You went through daf yomi 5x already?

You ever try good brewed coffee?
Maybe you should get a few pairs of the same color of pajamas. Avoid the whole problem, eh?

“Perhaps one purpose the play can be to teach the girls about the theater.”

If she is leaving the coffeeroom to go find real live friends and do productive things I think we should congratulate and encourage her.

I don’t think its a double standard at all. I just want someone who would want me to be honest when I have to answer the question of “honey did you like the _____? Was it too spicy/sweet/salty…?”
I’m not a critical person but I happen to care what my food tastes like and if its a little off I will say I like it with more salt. I you can’t take that dont marry me. Ill make it clear during dating so you wont get any surprises.
I want a girl who will want to please me and if she doesn’t want to go to the trouble of making food to my liking shes not for me. I don’t think its much to ask for and I am sure there are many eishes chayils who really want to please their husbands and understand that most men care about their food and want his true opinion. I know whenever I cook if someone says something critical, (I prefer if it is said nicely of course) I appreciate it as it helps me make the dish better the next time.

You are giving out of towners a bad name.
I think the whole cooking or baking thing can backfire if its not that good. I think I would only marry a woman who would be open to my constructive criticism of her cooking/baking. I don’t want to eat bad food my whole life lol.
Im going to bump this again. Maybe the mods should sticky it for now?

There are Kabbalah and Chassidish as well as non Chassidish seforim that say not like you. Google “Chelek Elokah Mimaal” you will find some info on this.

So where are you being this summer? De gayst tzim Kuntreeeee?
Technically speaking if you exist you are part of Hashem. He is everything, and something is part of everything therefore every something is a part of Hashem.
Bad idea for a thread.
How about Basar Shenisalem Min Haayin? I wouldnt eat there…
I hope nobody was hurt. Curious which one it was.

1. The preferred way to do the mitzvah is outdoors, since they cant do the mitzvah properly due to kol kvodah they were not obligated in it.
2. Im assuming that once upon a time in our history this didn’t go on. The world has changed and any girl who is Tzenuah is not always out and about. Read the story of Dina in the Torah. I would think that it is even less Tzanua for girls to be out at night.
3. What is your point, those are all indoors?

Can you mash liver by squeezing it in a bag or that would only work for the eggs which are softer? Its such a pain mashing eggs with a fork and I have bent more than one fork that way 🙁
Go to a wine tasting, speak to pros? Why do you ask? Btw drinking good wine is an expensive habit.

unless the person has some kind of wound on their side there is no reason why someone cant sleep on their side. Its all a matter of training yourself and getting used to it.

Stop waking other people up. :-p

The Halacha is that one should sleep only on their side preferably the left.

You mean the mishnayos was taught with music?

If someone takes a smart idea they like from someone else do we call it “influenced?

If you want good in ear headphones be prepared to pay for them. I personally would recommend the Westone UM1 model. They are top of the line and compare to models that are a lot more expensive than it. They aren’t cheap but you will see from the online reviews that they are excellent and they have my haskamah as well.

Actually the salmas chaim says to wake someone up who is sleeping on their back but I dont know if this is Halacha according to everyone and certainly you need to use an extra dose of common sense and sensitivity when dealing with Baalei Teshuvah.
Why didn’t you tell him the real reason for the issur?
Get the adblock ad blocking app.

The issur is only to go to sleep on your back or front. If it happened while he was sleeping there is no issur. I dont know where it says you have to wake anyone up who you find sleeping that way. Personally I think if you don’t know halacha, don’t know how to present halacha and explain why we do the things we do, and can’t figure when its necessary to say something and when not you have no business being in Kiruv. In fact you probably will send them back off the derech.

I know of an amazing inspiring person who has been through so so much and is really an amazing person. He discovered God on his own even though he was brought up in a pagan society that worshipped idols. His own father tried to have him killed for believing in God, the king of his city threw him into a raging fire for 3 days because he believed in God. He had a son after many many years and he almost lost that son because God asked him to bring him up on an altar as a sacrifice. His other son went off the derech and became a thief and murderer. He fought against 4 mighty kings to save his nephew. His wife was kidnapped twice by evil kings who wanted to live with her and almost succeeded. Regardless of any challenge that faced him in his life he didnt waver in his belief in God for one moment. This amazing person was none other than Avraham Avinu. We don’t need any non Jewish heros, if you delve into the lives of the avos or any of the shivah Royim (7 shepherds) you will see that our heros are much greater than “their” heros lehavdil can and will ever be.

They dont want to become Rebbitzen. Thats not enough for them, they need to be Rabbis.

I don’t want to give any private info but I have a sibling that nearly became an OTD (Off the derech) because of being in a school with bad boys and he had one Rebbe who was a disaster. Take my advice, if you are in a bad environment RUN. That is one of the messages we learn in parshas Korach. Oy Lerasha Oy Leshcheino, woe to the evil one and woe to his neighbor.
If you are in a bad environment YOU WILL certainly be negatively influenced. You must do everything you can to switch schools. Do whatever it takes, speak to your Rav/Rebbetzin if think theres a chance they can help you, and anyone else who you think can be an ally. Take my word for it, I’m older and have been through all of this already. Environment is the most important thing. Its so easy to get pulled down by negative influences. You owe it to yourself and your future to switch out of there.
