In the battle of shidduchim, I am a warrior. Every day is a fight for sanity, for clarity, and peace of mind. This is an uncensored account of my shidduch trials and tribulations –– the often emotional, sometimes poetic, confessions of a shidduch dater –– my colorful musings and reflections from behind the lines.

On Pain and Loneliness
I feel this ache deep inside me. There is no cure, not when I cannot control the remedy. The insensitive comments that seem innocuous, even hopeful. Do you really not understand that I cannot be happy if I'm feeling incomplete. And yes, until I find that piece of me, the one that understands me, supports me, wants me, cares about me like I care about him, enjoys just talking and trading banter...no I cannot feel complete. This is how we were created. So then why, why, am I left on my own here? Where art thou?
