On paper, my husband and I would have NEVER matched. This elul we will be celebrating 47 years of marriage.

Yosef and Rikki don't know me but I was at a hotel in Miami a couple years ago and I still remember seeing them and how they interacted with each other . It made such an impression on me. I remember saying that that's how I want my marriage to look like. Really incredible.

Tzipora, I've watched all 3 of these 'how we met' special couples' journeys and have really enjoyed each of their stories--from beginning to end-- of how they met against all odds. I also like your interview style: your insightfulness, the way you zone in with the right questions, and the way you give each person time to express themselves. Continued Hatzlacha to you and to all the couples.

I am thoroughly enjoying your content and appreciate your purpose. Please don’t view this post as negative. . . I believe it would be to your benefit to rein in your guests a bit. In several of the videos I’ve seen, the woman (wife) has talked a LONG time and has said the same things on repeat. In all cases the videos have lasted over an hour. Many people don’t have the time to watch that long. Maybe just a bit more Re-focusing would help to curb the repetition. Your message of hope deserves to be heard.

Hi im 19 I started shiduchim afew weeks ago. And I started watching your videos. I just want to thank you for sharing everyone's stories. It's giving me more thoughts on what to look for when dating! I watched one video were you were talking about girls struggles but my lesson that came out of that video was boys have struggling 2. My mother wants me to marry a boy who davens 3 times a day. Now I could care less if he goes to shul or not+ I mean don't get me wrong its a + but I've always felt that if its a struggle I'm not forcing someone to do that. Honestly its with any struggle but thats what stood out to me!❤

@annonimiss6422 12 дней назад

I think the world should start using the term "split home" instead of "broken home". "Broken" by definition is such a negative term. Having divorced parents doesn't mean that the family is broken. They can be the most wonderful family. And even if there are families who do have many issues due to the divorce, it's still so awful that we describe them with such a negative label. "Split" is a neutral term; it's a fact, whereas in this context, "broken" ends up coming across with a judging connotation.

@catsun90805 Месяц назад

So relatable. ❤

@holly_wood26 Месяц назад

Everyone has something about them that makes them look different and seem different, some are more obvious at first glance, but with time you barely notice. I understand how at first it can make people step back b/c it's not as common, but even watching this interview, I barely noticed it after a while. She's beautiful and as for those shadchanim for saying "she's a great girl, except she has this hand..." is so sad and disheartening. What a beautiful couple!

@haddasaragofsky1756 Месяц назад

I love your shows of stories of hope. Is there a way I can contact you Tzipora?

@Litefrire Месяц назад

Very good interviews, ultimately Hashem brings people together. But why is it bad that other people don't want someone from a broken home yet you yourself don't want someone from a broken home. It should be a non issue in both directions.

Yosef I am so impressed! You are so mature, remember you growing up, yes, unfortunately, the community is very judgmental, but the funny thing is that, realizing that Hashem is doing the zivugim , and Hashem is in total control, Baruch Hashem I am so happy for both of you!

Regarding a comment below about broken home being a non issue, unfortunately it isn't. There is a lot of likelihood that behavior patterns will be repeated because that is what the children saw. However as pointed out in another comment, we shouldn't judge, we should be willing to meet if that is the only thing the person seems to have going against him/her . Today everyone needs to have an o going relationship with their spiritual mentor for individual guidance. Aseh lecha Rav ukneh lecha chaver

@rochelbrown6597 Месяц назад

It is certainly not right to judge a potential shidduch by factors that are not in their control. We shouldn't be judging at all, other than to try to assess if a particular relationship is appropriate for me.(I was in shidduchim for many years and went out with actually more than 92). That's why we should also not say that a person was 'not worthy of my time' because 'G-d don't make mistakes', and in His wisdom aligns us with the people we need to meet to learn from, to teach something to, and to wait till the right moment to meet our intended. Platonic relationships do not exist. One side may think it is platonic while the other side is waiting for them to change their mind about that. That's why we have laws of modesty and need to be careful.

@myjourney73 Месяц назад

Stop with the "broken homes" It's a really demeaning term

@Ben-sv9op Месяц назад

The fact that people are judgmental, it's just the way it will be, and always.We'll stay that way. The fact that you jewish people have a system is why so many people are Married at a young age and you have that kind of success. you're way better off than us rest of the world with all the problems you've mentioned. .. People in today's generation just have to grow thick. Skin like our grandparents or great-grandparents had people are way too sensitive today, not disregarding The fact that people have to be more sensitive
