What Happens Online, Stays Online


Last night I went to an Israeli Independence Day party at Marquee. The highlight of my night was dancing to DJ Nadav Vee's off the charts house music and seeing the Israeli flag waved around a dance floor!

There were all different kinds of characters showing their love for the amazing state of Israel. Mostly single folks looking to have a good time and hopefully going home with someone and if not someone, then at least a phone number or new Facebook friend or more twitter followers.

I definitely had a chance to catch up with old friends who I (literally) haven't seen in years...funny how they all asked, "so...what's new? How’s life? Dating anyone?” I kind of sounded like a broken record, “things are great! Nothing new…what’s good with you?”—avoiding the “are you dating anyone?” part of the question.  The back and forth of easy surface conversation was actually all I could have handled last night.



But since we’re on the topic of ‘dating,’ why don’t we talk about the guys who have reached out to me JDate (Jewish Singles Dating Site) pretending to not know me last night. Yes. There were at least two JDate "matches" at the party last night I wanted to introduce myself to but neither one of them actually had the nerve to face me (I wonder). I was just going to say hello. It’s not like I was going to “call you out” on being on a Jewish dating site and make fun of you and tell everyone at the party, “hey guys!!! Look here…I met this guy online!!!”

So now whatever happens online stays online?? I must have missed that memo.

Where Are All the NJB's At??

I just spent 30 minutes checking out the 'competition' on JDate (online dating site for Jewish singles), 25-35 year old single Jewish girls in the NYC area. No, this doesn't make me crazy, just curious and able to admit it. It also makes me realize how many amazing, smart, eligible, pretty girls there are out there and for every great girl, I shake my head in disgust and want to kick the idiot who didn't hang on to that great girl!

What gives? Where are all the eligible men at? Why are there so many awesome girls on this dating site and so few men? Is there something wrong with this picture?
Finding a Nice Jewish Boy (NJB) on a dating site is very easy...that's only 1/2 the battle. The other half is finding one that's tall enough, confident enough, smart enough and not afraid of us amazing New York women. And sometimes, that's not even enough. The most important ingredient is, CHEMISTRY. I have been on countless dates with all different NJBs and no matter how "cute" your profile is, we can't fight the fact that sometimes there's just no chemistry; the invisible mutual urge to want to say out loud, "kiss me you fool!"

Where are all the NJB's at???
