I guess having converted makes it more difficult.....? <br><br>I didn't convert.....and I pose it as a question b/c I see so many well-meaning morons trying to solve "THE SHIDDUCH CRISIS" that I'm not sure your 'converted' status makes things worse than it would otherwise be. Although..... it probably does help attract more ignorant do-gooders (or are they just do-gooder ignoramuses?) than a non-blogging non-convert would get.<br><br>You wrote: "Somehow, a vast number of individuals in the Jewish community seem to figure that in some way or another they must pressure me to cave and begin dating the nebach men I would not want. I feel this is why I'm not welcomed."<br><br>Well, I say: DON'T CAVE!!!! Bold, underline and enlarge that one. DON'T CAVE. You didn't join Am Yisrael to be miserable, nor do I believe that God wants you to be miserable. More strength to you for not caving.Wingatehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12030762580783366778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012577834296987267.post-19984504546984181742010-07-12T11:50:23.325-07:002010-07-12T11:50:23.325-07:00Yeah, but, Shabbosos with people who want to tell ...Yeah, but, Shabbosos with people who want to tell you how to live your life are worse. I didn't appreciate being someone's "agenda" this past Shabbos. I would rather be alone. It would be better if Mr. Wonderful would pop out of nowhere but, somehow I'm not holding my breath.Michaltastikhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06358698308334285154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012577834296987267.post-10834917617087791082010-07-12T13:24:58.022-07:002010-07-12T13:24:58.022-07:00Thanks Wingate!Thanks Wingate!Michaltastikhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06358698308334285154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012577834296987267.post-81822091641358917852010-07-13T14:01:54.400-07:002010-07-13T14:01:54.400-07:00Hey, I'm not a convert (an FFB actually), and ...Hey, I'm not a convert (an FFB actually), and I get a lot of the same. Unfortunately, there are a lot of "do gooders" out there, who think that a single girl above a certain age is certainly desperate enough to accept just about anybody and have tons of advice about "networking" and stuff. And they have no problem at all coming right out and asking "Why haven't you done such and such" or "You know, you should really do such and such". And they get seriously insulted when you turn down some of their "interesting" possible dates I've decided to just ignore them the best I can.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012577834296987267.post-35870885128617176362010-07-13T19:02:10.841-07:002010-07-13T19:02:10.841-07:00Thanks.

I think it's a little easier for you because you don't have to spend holidays alone but, yeah, they definitely think they are going to sweep through and solve our problems. Somehow, I'm not really even looking for a shidduch anymore. I've really accepted my lot in life as a single woman. It's not the end of the world. They think it is, but it isn't.Michaltastikhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06358698308334285154noreply@blogger.com
