Matchmaker, matchmaker, make me a match, find me a find, catch me a catch...

I one heard this one "true love isn’t when two people alike get together, rather its when two opposite people learn to live with each other" now I don’t know about that, personally I’d rather marry someone who is very much like me.

Shadchan= someone who gets paid to be a yente!

A shaddchan corners a yeshiva bochur and says, "Do I have a girl for you!".

"Not interested", replies the bochur.

"But she's beautiful!” says the shaddchan

"Yeah?" says the bochur.

"Yes. And she's very rich too."

"Really?"

"And she has great yichus (ancestry)! From a very fine family."

"Sounds great." says the bochur. "But why would a girl like that want to marry me? She'd have to be crazy."

Replies the shaddchan "Well, you can't have everything!"

Mother’s love
Benny is almost 32 years old. All his friends are now married but Benny just dates and dates. Finally his friend asks him, "What's the matter, Benny? Are you looking for the perfect woman? Are you really that fussy? Surely you can find someone who suits you?"
"No I just can’t," Benny replies. "I meet many nice girls, but as soon as I bring them home to meet my parents, my mother doesn't like them. So I keep on looking!"
"Listen," his friend suggests, "why don't you find a girl who's just like your mother?"
Many weeks go by and again Benny and his friend get together.
"So, have you found the perfect girl yet? One that's just like your mother?"
Benny shrugs his shoulders, "Yes, I found one just like mum. Mum loved her right from the start and they have become good friends."
"So, do I owe you a Mazel Tov? Are you and this girl engaged yet?"
"I'm afraid not. My father can't stand her!"

In conclusion, my idea for all single folks is that all people who are interested in getting married should be able to walk down the street with copies of their shiddach resumes in their pockets and whenever they pass someone who they are attracted too, they should be able to walk up and introduce themselves, pass over a résumé and see what happens, and no it has nothing to do with JUST physical attraction!

Sorry, the though of "blind dating" just freaks me out, also think about it, when people ask you about others for shidduchim how truthfull are you, I just think when you see a person on the street... You know?

anon: us ladies truly have the upper hand. married men are in kappotos..

and during the week they all have labeled teffilin bags!!

ANON: Thanks, I try.

SARAH: "because you are right... you just never, never know."

You realy think so? Oh well maybe by the year 2010...

ESHET: Aw thanks, glad you enjoyed.

ANON #2: LOL! As anon 3 pointed out, we do have teffilin bags,while the most us guys can hope for is a necklace with a name on it and then hope we dont get busted for staring...

ANON #3: Hehe, good point about the kappotos but thats only on shabbos, and I suppose then tha you can also look if its a teffilin bag or a tallis bag during the week, truth is though married women have sheitels of course but these days its getting kinda hard to tell the diff...

So how about if all guys would have their names on their yarmulkas and all girls should have their names sewn onto their purses ;)

anon #3- ur right...i didnt think about the tefillin bags...YAY!

funny though-yet again.

That is so unfair, girls get to check out teffilin bags and all us guys get is a bunch of girl named "CHAY"

LOL!!

You crack me up.

But great point...tho do you have a better alternative than the shidduch system?

i don;t see how they'll really help but...hey i'm not worrying about it yet

ANON: So no chance in getting girls to sew their names onto purses huh? Bummer :(

As CHAY wrote it is kinda unfair...

Thinking of enlarging the letters on my teffilin bag, and maybe even adding my phone number ;)

CHAY: LOL, It seems chay really is a popular name.

EXSEM: :) Well I really do like my resume idea...

ESHET: Nah (getting your t' bag with your name on it is a big deal, besides otherwise they all look the same...)

SUPERS: Welcome back. G'luck in school. Well maybe when you start worrying about it, you will come to see how they help out ;)

Do you make these all up? Or you just copy and paste?

 
At 8:04 PM, Blogger Dovid said...

Chay, yes, funny

 
At 8:37 PM, Blogger Chasidishe Shaigitz said...

WANDERING: Not all jokes, most however (at least from this last post) were copy and paste, I just added my own two cents worth here and there (and sort the good jokes from the bad ones, which are left out.)

DOVID: Chay, yes, thanks ;P
Hasta manyana.
