105:45 Not the same situation but similiar, a boyfriend once asked "Which celebrity or movie star would you like to be with if you had the chance?" My answer was " No, sorry but i don't play that game." He looked surprised. He continued with "C'mon what do you mean, its no big deal, who, who is it?" I said "Nope, this serves no good purpose, why would i want this conversation?" He responded with "So you can tell me, and I'll tell you mine, that way you'll know why I want to watch certain movies." I told him, "Cute, nice try." See, he was trying to trap me into telling me something to spark jealously through fantasy land of movie watching. A very lazy way of attempting to cause jealousy without actually doing anything or knowing anyone. All weird bizzare questions that serve zero purpose other than possible hard feelings are meant to be a trap.

Rabbi, I just love listening to your talks and get so much value from them. I just want to thank you for teaching a gentiles to what we should be expecting from husbands, and how we should be acting as wives. God's laws apply to people of all faiths. I think some of your talks should be mandatory study before anyone starts dating! There would be a lot more successful and happy marriages. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'm a 67-year-old widow who was married three times. So I don't believe I'll be getting married again. But if I had only known what you were teaching, it would have saved so much heartache for so many people. God bless you!

I think today's generation in the US have lived with so much freedom that they are forever children. Most of them are clueless about Russia.

Dating is how you get to know different people and what kinds of things you find objectionable in a possible mate and what kinds of things you like. I went on one date with one guy, to a bar, and in 4 hours he had 7 drinks. I did not date him again. Went on two dates with a guy who graduated university two years before and found out he had not opened a book to learn anything new in two years. Went on one lunch date with a guy who believed a man should not have to open a car door for a lady. Dropped him. What body shape are you attracted to? What kind of brains are you attracted to? What are their values compared to your values? Do they show kindness?

I agree with so much of what the Rabbi is saying. My only dispute is a girl of 15 having a baby. Any age below 20 are required to to take a lot of calcium. Why? Their bodies are still growing until about 19 and a child before that take from the mothers bones not her calcium. A mother younger than age is a higher risk pregnancy and have more complications than a 20 year old. So marry at 19 and have a child at 20 and 9 months. A man reaches maturity closer to age 30 and is better equipped to protect and take on the physical burdens of life. His temper should be more even. A man’s brain does not reach full growth until age 24-26, allowing for better decision making after maturity. So a woman marrying at 20 and a man after 24-26 makes better sense. Are some more mature earlier, yes. But why not take the best ages to be long lived and mature. The age age of death was also 47-50 a the turn of the century and earlier for many reasons.

Almost all my grandparents were married as teenagers and I know one of my grandmothers hated it and never got over it and let us know how miserable she was on the issue. Her negative attitude was a legacy she gave to at least 2 generations to endure. Funny, I used to see her in best light but I don't think that highly of her anymore.

I want zero relationship with him. He played nice in the beginning, then slowly changed and became more and more abusive over the years. Well mine was only nice in the beginning. We wanted to get married and it was nice in the beginning. In the end he didn’t have affection for me.
