#2281 Debora Frydman (Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv)& Jeffrey Gluck (Silver Spring, Maryland) סיפור הצלחה The previous ways to meet people, for me they were suggestions from friends and an online speed dating. With friends, I found that, although they were well-meaning, their thought process was often "well, we like them both, and their both nice, so they should be good together." I never actually got beyond an initial phone call or shabbat meal to even a date this way. The speed dating went better, but it still felt very random. SYAS was better because of the profile process and having real shadchanim considering the profiles and thoughtfully considering whether to propose a match.
