We can find many Jewish singles all over the world. They enjoy their life, they enjoy their family and all the hobbies and fun things they do on their day to day basis are things that are not to be missed. They are fun and full of celebration. One of the main topics though that have circulated among my friends is this question, “Is everyone able to be dating Jewish men?”

Unfortunately, I don’t have many friends who are Jews because where I come from you can’t really find them around; although I did have the opportunity to be friend one when I was still young. So in order to answer the questions that my friends and I have asked, I had to do some research and also read and watch documentary films in order to get the grasp of the Jewish men and their ways.

One of my favorite movies of all time is “Fiddler on the Roof”, and from that movie alone I have seen how disgraceful or terrible it would be for the family to have a daughter marry a non-Jewish man. I believed it would have also applied to a Jewish man as well. The daughter who married a non-Jewish man in the film was sort of “disowned” at the end of the movie, although you could see how the father really didn’t want to do so.

Of course in these days, it is not so strict. However, many Jewish families would prefer that their daughter or son would meet a Jew and eventually marry them. I have read many articles in which several girls were dumped because the Jewish man was not allowed to date them or realized that they may have been better off with a Jewish woman.

We have also seen many non-Jewish women decide to convert to Judaism so that they could be with the man that they loved and same goes for the man. If you are dating Jewish men, then you must be aware about the things that are important to them which would be the traditions, heritage, culture, and for some of them the obedience to certain religious rules.

Now not all Jews follow the specific religious rules unlike the Orthodox or maybe Conservative Jews. However, other Jews such as reform are not too particular with it. Nevertheless, they are still deeply rooted in their heritage which is reason enough for any woman to be ready to handle if she so decided to date them.

The basic common reason why most Jewish men would prefer Jewish women is so that there is that sense of commonality and understanding to the faith and lifestyle. Sometimes tolerance is not enough because if a couple decides to get married, it is good when they can share all parts of their life with the other, especially the parts that mean the most.

So for all women, whether you are Jewish or non-Jewish, and who are considering dating Jewish men; I hope this helped in some ways!
