well
my experience with frumster has been very positive.
I feel like across miles and miles of land there are people who share my vision of similar lifestyles.

What I’m interested in is a frum guy with an open mind to the outside world, who wants to live in Israel. Who also is easy going with a sense of humor.

And honestly, I’m having a great time just talking to people across the Jewish communities! and they’re funny and witty, and we just roll jokes and touch on important points. and people are pretty open minded about the restrictions of the labels.

Maybe the website just doesn’t suit you, but please don’t speak Lashon Hara about it.

Good luck!

I found that datingsitedire... has some good online dating site listings (including Jewish sites). It’s worth checking out.

Ive always wondered why does halacha require that a man please his wife maritally when in fact it is the man that clearly needs it and women seem to do fine without it?!!

Have we american girls lost our sex appeal? i know that american jewish men find israeli woman as hot,and israeli men think american jewish woman are plain. Maybe i need to go to israel to buy clothes ,hairstyle, and learn to walk like a sabra. Is it true that we american woman have lost our sexiness? Do we really go to the mall in sneakers and sweatsuits while the israeli, italian, and madrid girls get the eye time from our boys? Any ideas? I wrote you in the other section yesterday.

PS, for those of you interested in continuing this discussion, Frumster just announced that they're opening up their service to those Jews who are looking for a serious partner, but who don't self-define as frum. How do I know? I have my sources.

what is frum?! i’ve been jewish for 20 years and i never ever heard that term until i started reading this blog. i mean i gathered that “frum” girls are tznuot, but there must be more to it.

ZIZA Saada: Uh… that’s not the way we do things here. You email us about your party and then we can put up a post about it. Otherwise this looks like, you know, comment spam. I’ll leave it on because a Sephardic Rabbi is involved, but next time please follow protocol! Have a good party.

At JQS.com – JMatch.com we ask people to explain what role Judaism play in their life. No two answers are alike…We also have a “flexible” to accomodate all shades…

I wonder–who came up with these titles, and what exactly their meaning is? Is one who is Flexidox good @ Jewish Yoga and Meditation? How about Conservadox–A dash of Conservative to Orthodox–and PRESTO! BEHOLD A CONSERVADOX!!!!! Another STREAM??? I DIDNT KNOW WE WERE IN WATER, CAPITANO!!!Look, you are what you are. Many people can say they are “Modern Ortho Liberal” Or “Mod Ortho Machmir”–or before you can say “TomCruiseEmbrassassesHimselfYetAgain” there will be a Modern MachmirLiberOx. I think everyone has their own definitions of what each label is, and as each person is a microcosm in and of themselves, with diff life experiences–dont take the labels too seriously. Be yourself. Actually? I am looking for a MENTCHADOX. Can we incorporate this one into the online web sites? Lets get crackin, peeps.

Then it’s a catch-22: We need the labels to understand where people are coming from. But then people are resistant to being categorized and often feel the need to qualify their self-categorization or affiliation with a specific group. By doing that, the label loses its resonance. So what’s the point in using the labels to begin with? Yikes.

Maybe its so difficult to define with labels because of the need of them, which is that everyone has different opinions on the definitions of Judaism or being Jewish?

Hey Middleman, life at UCSB is a mixed blessing for sure… great scenery, but man, there’s been a huge increase in fundies there. Can’t even enjoy a nice relaxing break in front of the library without getting preached to by one group or another.
