" I will take a much deeper look at who I am being offered before I consent to a first date"
Considering the fact that most Haredi couples "go out" on 5-6 dates at most before they commit, this is a remarkablr statement. After all, she is talking about 20% of all her dates with this man. Religious pressure to marry and the absurdly young age at which the couple is coerced contributes to Haredi divorces as well.
"Let them grow up together" I`ve heard said (with doting smiles) of two 18 year olds embarking on the most serious decision of their lives. In 9 months they have their first and the die is cast. |
