Fate or Faith ?

What is the true reason people meet and date? What is the true reason people seem to fall in love and then fall out of it?

Are people responsible of their fate because of lack of faith?

Is the reason many almost perfect dates go bust because of lack of faith? Whether it's the lack of faith in themselves, their date or even the One Above?

IMHO opinion the answer is yes.

Are men just "pigs" or is there more to them?

Are men just "pigs" or is there more to them?

Is it about lust only or a combination of lust and love?

I have asked many women this question and am astonished how diverse the answers are. Most women answer what they were "told" vs what they truly know.

Whatever?????????

What is going on with this next generation? Is there nothing valuable left in this world except materialism?

Have we gotten so commercial'ized?

Why are parents so helpless?

His wants, Her wants

So whose wants are more important?

Looking around at different cultures, religion, professionals and the simple nature of man and women, the answer to this question will be as diverse as the 6 plus billion people on this earth are.

It reminds me of what I overheard recently one mother explaining to her friends what she is looking for her son. "I'm looking for a girl that when my son asks her to jump, she will not just answer "Yes!", she will ask "How high?".

Then again if marriage is about "We" and "Us" vs "me" and "I", this would not be a question at all.

So what are weddings?

How many people truly feel that their wedding is their funeral?

Then again, in spite of such feelings, people continue to get married.

Why?

the problems of today…

A teenage boy and his grandfather go fishing one day. While fishing, the old man starts talking about how times have changed. The young man picks up on this and starts talking about the various problems and diseases going around.

Teen says, "Grandpa, they didn't have a whole lot of problems with all these diseases when you were young did they?"

Grandpa replies, "Nope."

Teen says, "Well, what did you guys use for safe sex?"

Grandpa replies, "A wedding ring."

How much should parents be involved?

IMHO, parents need to be very involved. However, what does that really mean?

If parents were looking out truly for the children, then yes, of course they (both) should be involved.

What is happening today is the opposite. Parents are looking what are best for them not for the children! Which is why this shiduchim business is getting worse?

Therefore, between untrained shadchunim, uneducated daters, and confused parents, I truly wonder what the present and the future hold.

Top 10 Reasons G-d Created Eve

10. G-d worried that Adam would frequently become lost in the garden because he would not ask for directions.
9. G-d knew that Adam would one day require someone to locate and hand him the TV remote.
8. G-d knew that Adam would never go out and get himself a new
fig leaf when his seat wore out and would, therefore, need Eve to go get one for him.
7. G-d knew that Adam would never be able to make a doctor's, dentist, or haircut appointment for himself.
6. G-d knew that Adam would never be able to remember which night to put the garbage on the curb.
5. G-d knew that if the world was to be populated, men would never be able to handle the pain and discomfort of childbearing.
4. As "Keeper of the Garden," Adam would never remember where he left his tools.
3. Apparently, Adam needed someone to blame his troubles on when G-d caught him hiding in the garden.
2. As the Bible says, "It is not good for man to be alone!"
And finally, the number ONE reason that G-d created Eve...
1. When G-d finished the creation of Adam, He stepped back, scratched His head, and said, "I can do better than THAT!"

The exact words ?

An old man goes to the Wizard to ask him if he can remove a
curse he has been living with for the last 40 years.

The Wizard says, "Maybe, but you will have to tell me the exact
words that were used to put the curse on you."

The old man says without hesitation - "I now pronounce you man
and wife."

We know that there are days in the month when all a man has to do is open his mouth and he takes his very life into his own hands! This is a handy guide that should be as common as a driver's license in the wallet of every husband, boyfriend, or significant other!!

It's what inside that counts?

Inanimate Objects

You may not know this, but many non-living things have a gender.

1) Ziploc Bags are Male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.

2) Copiers are Female, because once turned off; it takes a while to warm them up again. It's an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can wreak havoc if the wrong buttons are pushed.

3) A Tire is Male, because it goes bald and is often over-inflated.

4) A Hot Air Balloon is Male, because, to get it to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under it, and of course, there's the hot air part.

5) Sponges are Female, because they're soft, squeezable and retain water.

6) A Web Page is Female, because it's always getting hit on.

7) A Subway is Male, because it uses the same old lines to pick people up.

8) An Hourglass is Female, because over time, the weight shifts to the bottom.

9) A Hammer is Male, because it hasn't changed much over the last 5,000 years, but it's handy to have around.

10) A Remote Control is Female. Ha! You thought it'd be male, didn't you?
But consider this - it gives a man pleasure, he'd be lost without it, and while he doesn't always know the right buttons to push, he keeps trying!
