Someone looking into your family? Hide!

SO,you know that a family is looking into your son for a shidduch. What’s the best thing to do? Hide. Yup, hide!

Why?

Take the supermarket, for example. You want to run in to pick something up. Trader Joe’s may be the most convenient stop, but — ahem — that might label you as a Trader Joe’s Type. Even though most people know that “Everything but the Bagel Spice” is the best one there is. Too bad — you should have stocked up on it before you entered shidduchim.

So you head to the local kosher supermarket. Inevitably, you’ll bump into someone who either just got a call about you or is about to get that call. If you’re all dressed up, they’ll say you’re Fancy. If you go in your long skirt and sweatshirt — yikes. Gulp.

Do you wear a snood? A sheitel?! Or are you the Hat Type in the winter? Did I say snood? Oh, my, that puts me in my own category. Tichel, I meant tichel.
