Covid-19 and Shalom Bayis

[dealfinder11]

Sounds like you are referring to those circles that get engaged on the 4th date, for many people it is an opportunity to deepen their relationship.   

Huh? What relationship? You mean having fun with each other? When I reference a relationship, i'm referring to growing with one another. Learning to appreciate one another. To fight thru adversity and growing from it. To be there for one another.

Came here to cross post this. I choose a dream vacation, would be nice for DW and I to see a different side of eachother for a change. I’m sure a dream vacation includes steak dinners, with the steak made to your preference.

Avrohom started shachris, Yitzchak started mincha, Yaakov started maariv. You'd invent maariv too if you had 12 kids at home.

A woman got up from shiva and tells her husband "I learned two things: Shacharis doesn't take only 15 minutes and maariv doesn't take an hour and a half!"

I'm sorry to hear you had a rough engagement, and that you didn't learn to appreciate each other and grow together during that time, DW and I can't say the same.

Speak to any rabbanim and you will find that idealistic problem free engagements where the couples are constantly with each other are stuff for fairy tales.  Growing with each other and learn to appreciate each other are for after the wedding.  That’s why most will strictly limit interactions during this time and keep it as short as possible.

Have you tried before the wedding?

Have you tried before the wedding?

doesnt mean it cant happen then, but after the wedding is much more conducive  for growth and has more potential then before

Typical frum engagement is probably 6-10 weeks and often living in separate cities.
