Interesting links. It seems strange that years ago people didn't have issues making shidduchim, and now with all the internet help, we are having problems.
ReplyDeleteI thank you for compiling this list, but if you have any contacts with the owners of these websites, I would recommend listing the position of the person on the references page.

Also, spelling general as generel will not go to far with sophisticated girls. :-)
On the reference list if you click on a specific yeshiva it will give you the hanahala members of Rosh yeshiva to contact for information about a Bochur.
DeleteThanks for the correction :)
My point is that it names members of the Hanhala, but it doesn't tell you if they are the RY, the Mashgiach, or the custodian.
Deleteto=too in my comment above. :-)
It's not surprising there's a shidduch crisis. If people are doing all those "segulos" (sic) when will they have time to go out on dates?
ReplyDeleteIt's a big segula to wear thick gloves when your pick up shards of broken tenoim plate.
ReplyDeleteOne of the off shoots of the shidduch crisis is the divorce crisis. Girls are sometimes so anxious to get married, they marry and overlook some flaws which they would have never done if they were not so desperate . The first question should be, is the boy or girl normal or does he or she exhibit some mental problems. Many rebbeim will not tell you so you have to be careful.
ReplyDeleteIs there a link to find out if the teacher aand rabbeim of a particular yeshiva or school are capable of giving over info about a perspective student?
ReplyDeleteWas always curious about that havdalah candle. Any sources?
