re: Why NOT to marry for some?

Gosh, can't tell you how many jewish women 've dated who have no idea how to act with a man. In fact, as you say later on, many of them act more like a man than like a woman! It's very discouraging to have those experiences, and someone should coach them that it is a real turn off for a man to experience that.

have found ny jewish women particularly guilty of these accusations. have dated too many tough, demanding and opportunistic jewish women in ny. Somehow, find out of town jewish women generally softer, more sensitive and more appreciative.

Frankly, don't see much reason for optimism in the Jewish Dating world. People' expectations are so far out of line. People don't know how to treat eachother with respect. And, people don't make an honest assesment of their limitations and less appealing qualities and simultaneously expect only the best of the best in the people they date. Sad.
