So I guess this means you haven't met his mother yet. :stickpoke

:eek:--not yet!
I wonder if she will approve..? Oh, well...he's a grown man. Besides, I can always convert...:angel:

I wonder if she will approve..?

No. No she will not. But she might be able to hide that fact. :)

Oh, well...he's a grown man. Besides, I can always convert...

Converting is actually a bitch of a process. Be glad you're not male. A neighbor of mine was converting for his wife, and found out that since he didn't have the bris (circumcision) ceremony as a baby, he had to have it now--despite being already circumcised. The rabbi just nicked him with the razor instead.

OHMIGOD! I am thanking the Almighty right this second that I do NOT have to do the bris...I just have to learn to do a Passover meal. Whew.

You don't think she will like me even if I DO convert?

Who knows, maybe she's a modern Jewish mother. But in all my experiences, even conversion can't compare to a genuinely Jewish wife. There's a saying... "Shiksas [gentile girls] are for practice."

When a friend of mine came out of the closet to his Jewish mother, the very first thing she said was, "Well, if it's going to be a boy, at least let it be a nice Jewish boy."

:bawling:

I'm...I'm...a-
practice Shiksa?

:blush: Oh, now now, don't forget I've never met you or your boyfriend. Don't let my experiences make you go have a fight with him tonight about how he's not really devoted to you. I'm sure he's very wonderful and loving, and his mother will love you for who you are.:joylove:

Was kidding, Clodfobble. No worries!

Besides, he's 61. He hardly needs the practice!

*cough anna nicole cough cough* :D

OH. shut UP, will you?

:angel:----he's really GOOD!

my guess, brianna, is that you are not a part of his generation?

No, I'm not a part of his generation--I'm a 21 years younger. But it's FUN!

Don't knock what you haven't tried! He's a very, very nice man. Intelligent, witty, plays well with others-all that. Just because you are 61 doesn't mean you can't be...(ahem) freaky.

I realize by saying that I am putting myself in grave danger... ;) but, what the hell

Well, the truth of the matter is that NO woman, Jewish or otherwise, will ever be good enough for a real Jewish mother-in-law. However, I've seen several examples where the converted daughter-in-law was more welcomed than the born-Jewish, because of the sacrifice she was willing to make for the <strike>Prince</strike> cherished son.

And he will say his prayer every morning, thanking god he's not a woman. ;)

Yeah, wow. I thought that was just Orthodox practice. :eyebrow:
It's pretty offensive.
