Why are we still promoting pictures for shidduch resumes? Shidduchim isn’t Tinder. We shouldn’t be “swiping right or left” on a potential shidduch because of how they look. Obviously it’s fine to request a shidduch with certain physical characteristics (tall, short, thin, heavy, etc.) that would be most compatible to you.

Having a photo helps save time and avoid unnecessary heartbreak.
Would you rather know beforehand or just give everyone a chance and get burned out.

A beautiful initiative! What efforts are going into making shidduchim, setting people on dates. I’ve contacted a few of the shadchanim from the shidduch house and it when no where.

Great initiative!

But please don’t call them girls and boys. Some single people are a bit too old for that title, but are still categorized as such even in their 30’s.
Maybe next time use men/ women.
Much hatzlocha!
