Yes it’s true that majority of singles meet in New York. However, it’s getting increasingly tougher to do so as time goes on. For people from LA or any other American state to move to Crown heights although annoying its legal for them. They can work legally and travel in and out as they please. But all non americans are in a real mess because of the constant tightening of immigration laws. They are not able to stay in the US for more than a couple months and cannot work legally. They need to give up good jobs, live in… Read more »

Just a thought....

How about encouraging more shidduchim with both being English? Things have changed over the years . Plane tickets were affordable so boys could travel easier . How can a single boy afford 1000k to travel to london for what could be just one or two dates ? The problem also is that most English boys wind up in NY as there is no yeshiva or semicha program for them once they reach shidduch age. Perhaps if there were then there would be guys around to date these girls!

for the older singles

Are these Shidduch groups for the young singles or are there any Shuddchanim helping the widows/divorcees ?
Found that most dating sites of older people are really false, many concerned with money, location & looks. Very superficial sally

“Singles shouldn’t feel the need to uproot themselves and move to Crown Heights indefinitely inorder to be considered dateable”. Let’s put it this way if ur from LA, Melbourne, London, Joberg, Sydney, Montreal etc u have no choice but 2 move 2 Bklyn being that those communities dont have the #z like Bklyn does, 4 example take LA the community is just 2 small 2 find local shiduchim not enough ppl & besides the bachurim come 2 Bklyn 2 learn & the girls come here 2 get jobs etc, so it winds up that Bklyn is the place 90% of… Read more »

Los Angeles has a large handful of great chassidish girls… they are not across the world!

Nice!

Very true, english girls are really top notch! Boys should be willing to travel for a shidduch as it is the ideal way. Hope to see a big shift in the way people approach shidduchim and non Americans. Singles shouldn’t feel the need to uproot themselves and move to Crown Heights indefinitely inorder to be considered dateable. Good news and Simchos for everyone IY”H.

wat LA & Melbourne
September 21, 2014 6:12 pm

We gotta go & reach out 2 Melbourne & Los Angeles as well, very big Lubavitch communities out there. But anyway every1 winds up movin 2 Bklyn anyway. This is the hub if u wanna find the right 1. Yes there r exceptions u here of a couple that didn’t have 2 move 2 Bklyn 2 meet each other but that is very very rare.

I have met a few recently, they have Middos and they are so real with their heads on straight – The American boys are missing out- Would you not pay $800 to possibly meet your other half?
