And now, the second installment of our Jewish dating top 10 series from guest blogger Sadie at Diet Coke in a Lobby.

1. I like to take advantage of all the city has to offer.
2. I enjoy a night out or a quiet evening at home.
3. I love kids and really enjoy playing with my neices and nephews.
4. My friend made me go on this site.
5. Jewish mothers love me.
6. I have a really hard time describing myself.
7. I’m the one who’s always there for people.
8. Looks aren’t important, but please be athletic and take good care of yourself, be of average height and weight, and active.
9. I don’t want to pay to be a full member of this thing so hit me up at the little yellow running man @ cheapAIMer.
10. (and our last one comes from a real profile and is the complete opposite of commonly-used) “How about you? What annoyed you today? And what made you weak in your knees from joy and pleasure?”
11. (ok and one more) “We meet. We click. We want to boink but have dinner reservations.”

Who Is a Jew? Court Ruling in Britain Raises Question
By SARAH LYALL
A case involving the admissions policy of a Jewish high school in London has potential repercussions for thousands of other parochial schools across Britain.

Sadie over at the Diet Coke in a Lobby blog has posted a funny list of Top 10 Deal Breakers, based on real guys she’s gone out with from JDate. It doesn’t cease to shock me that some guys think it’s ok to act like complete weirdos with the girls they meet on dating sites.  But hey, at least her experiences are a source of funny stories.

Stay tuned here for Sadie’s continuing series.

Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve been speaking to a lot of people about their gripes with online dating in the Jewish world. The most interesting thing is that girls tend to complain about the guys. Socially awkward, completely clueless about how to conduct themselves around women, etc. There is of course the classic case of the guy who demanded 50 bucks from his date after she refused to see him again.

So, girls, what else do you NOT like about the current state of online dating? It would also be interesting to hear the guys’ point of view.
