[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It kind of sounds like they missed the boat, to be honest. It's really difficult for a woman to get married for the first time past the age of 35. I imagine these women probably have a laundry list of qualifications to match their own - potential partner has to be Jewish, high income, educated at certain colleges, good family, similar age (not too much older or younger), good looking/in shape, etc. There's just not a lot of men that fit into that mold, period, and the ones that do, have their choice of women. I agree they should move out west, the dating market is much better for women in cities like Seattle.[/quote]

My knowledge is 15 years old....I was a mid-30's Jewish guy.  15 years ago, I found this area to be horrible.  Basically, it seemed like the women had such a wall up that they did not want to open up.  That was a huge turn off.  I figured maybe it was related to being a female trying to protect herself.  But, I had women lose interest in me when they discovered I did not have a six figure income (I was just out of grad school...phd scientist).  At the other end, I met very needy women.  But I found it very hard to meet anyone in this area.

Finally, I met someone out of town.  Been for quite a while.

And why Jewish?  It has to do with values.  Most reform Jews will have similar social values as me, including the importance of social justice and education.  [/quote]
