Psychology with a Smile: 10 Amusing Things You Should Know About Jewish Girls
Heading out on a date, remember: Jewish girls are a special occurrence. Some of the things we do will definitely not go unnoticed in their remarkable world. And if you are serious about Jewish dating and starting a family, take note of what's written below – and start getting used to it.
1) What does a Jewish girl do for dinner?
She books a table at a restaurant. She will certainly tell you she’s a wonderful cook – but will always prefer a delicious dinner out, and her culinary prowess will surprise you... someday.
2) What will she choose from the menu?
Most likely, sushi. Yes, one can never eat shellfish and still adore sushi.
3) Friends from Jewish camp – it matters.
They have vacations spent together, a strong emotional bond, a sea of memories, laughter, and jokes only they understand. Don’t even try to solve this mystery – just make sure your phone is well charged and find yourself an activity.
4) The food her family makes – the best in the world.
You disagree? It might be wise to keep that opinion to yourself. And definitely come to those long family meals hungry and in pants with an elastic waistband.
5) Allowing herself to complain – a necessity.
No matter the topic. Bad weather, overly curly hair, too small a portion of sushi at the restaurant, your new jacket, or those shoes she has long dreamed of buying. What, you can’t allow yourself that either? Then arm yourself with patience and take these complaints as you would the rain.
6) The three-handshake theory – it’s no joke.
At least for Jewish girls, that is. Oh, my cousin probably went to school with your boss's son. What did you say their last name was? I’m sure I know them!
7) Friday evenings – not the time for traditional dates.
That’s when Shabbat starts and everyone gathers at the table. Shabbat meals, songs, lighting candles, and the large family of your Jewish girl, where everyone cooks better than anyone in the world. By the way, you are there too – not at the cinema, not on the beach, not at a disco.
8) Curly hair – a sensitive topic.
Try to gracefully avoid discussing this subject. Yes, a straightening iron is your girl's best friend (after you, of course). Yes, she knows all about salon treatments that straighten her hair with various chemicals. And yet, she will always think that her hair curls more than any other girl’s combined. On those rare days when she leaves her hair natural, do not focus on it. If you carelessly remark that today they look “too wavy,” your relationship with your girl might be in jeopardy.
9) Calling parents several times a day – it's normal.
Even if she's already 30 and has been living on her own for a while. Yes, Jewish girls do that. Yes, they just like to keep in touch with their family. Yes, even late at night (on weekends, while traveling, during a date) too. No, it's not an obligation – it's the parents who give strong support, love, and self-confidence. Get used to it and don’t make fun of her. Better yet, call your own parents.
10) The wedding – it's important.
A big Jewish wedding – what could be more beautiful! After all, you are already accustomed to everything listed above – and don’t you find those charming traits of your Jewish girl to be one big flaw?
Then go ahead!
