We heart Good4.
The young lass returned from seminary excited and eager to build her BNB. So far she’s only been turned down as too fresh out of sem. She frowns. I snicker. We’re all waiting for her to land.
Still, there’s nothing like a fresh face to bring optimism and joy to an enterprise growing dull with familiarity. She intends to marry the first guy she dates, which is to say, she intends the first guy she dates to be the right guy to marry. Or, the way she puts it, “I want to go out with my husband already!”
“You mean you want a date?”
“No, I don’t want to date. Dating is yucky. I want to meet my husband.”
“How do you know what dating is like?”
Incredulous stare.
“Okay fine. But when you say it like that it sounds like you’re anticipating an arranged marriage.”
Then there was the time the Pater pointed out that she had put her age down on her shidduch profile. “You’ll have to update it every year if you leave it like that. Change it to your birth-year.”
Good4 considered this idea briefly and then discarded it. “Nah, I won’t be needing this for that long.”
We can hope and pray.
