How to Get Married After 35

How to Get Married After 35: "she ran into an old friend who had become observant. Her friend seemed happier than she'd ever seen her. I want some of that, Helena thought. So she began attending Torah study classes. At one of Aish HaTorah's High Holiday learning services she met Charlie, the man who would later become her husband.

She gave Charlie her 'I'm only dating for the purpose of marriage' speech on the second date.

Having been influenced by her classes and being very goal-oriented, she gave Charlie her 'I'm only dating for the purpose of marriage' speech on the second date. He stuck around, and 12 months later they were married.
Not content to bask in her personal happiness, Helena wanted to help others. She believed strongly in her method of dating and felt such regret over the time she had wasted.
She began to formulate some principles and strategies. Helena believes that every man or woman who is single and seriously wants to get married should have a post-it on their refrigerator, 'What one thing am I going to do today in service of my personal life?'
'We should bring the same passion, tenacity and principles to finding a marriage partner that we bring to business,' she proposes.
Action is far superior to complaining. We need to remain upbeat and, as Helena herself did, 'never lose faith that there is someone out there'."
