Thank you to all the shadchaniot for your tireless efforts on behalf of our singles. Is this event only for the singles or also for parents?

How about 9 ways I’m not to ignore singles who put there self out there. Instead of “ I’m thinking “

Shadchanim are not magicians, they work tirelessly on behalf of singles, I’m sorry that you are going through a very difficult time, but the to blame the people that dedicate themselves to helping is similar to biting the hand that feeds you.

No one is asking for magicians they are just asking to be decent human beings. For 6 months to years and not hear back from them at all is showing how much they totally dismissed us and not working tirelessly at all.
Till you haven’t been in a singles shoes and especially an older single you have no idea what you’re talking about.
“dont judge a person till you haven’t been in their place”.

the only hand that feeds is Hashem

this is part of the shidduch crisis when shadchans they think they are Hashem

psalm 145 He opens His hand to feed every creature.

shadchans are not a feeding hand, they are more like a lost and found box operator. someone lost their mitten they call in “i’m looking for my other mitten. the one i have now looks like this, it matches it’s the other mitten to my pair.” operator of the box looks in the box, find the matching mitten, and gives it back to the owner. end of story.

Who cares about how many matches someone made?
What is their divorce rate? Broken engagements?

Positive attitude.

You must resort to shoot the messenger?
Please articulate why the community is not entitled to this data?
How does one know “who is a good shadchan”? Where is the quantifiable data?!
