My grandmother, getting on in years, decided a while back to get for herself a full-time woman. She's gone through a few by now, but she currently has the most amazing, lovely, caring lady that we all adore. She's kind, she's educated, she's interested in and respectful of frum Jewish culture.
A cousin of mine who is still in her teens got engaged. My grandmother is furious about this imminent marriage as I am still available, despite the fact that we are both her descendants.
But Babi's woman initially thought it was me that got be-ringed, and she was horrified. Why?
She doesn't want me to give up my independence so soon.
And, she added, I should hold out for a man who will take care of me (she doesn't get this "sitting and learning" thing).
I hope she doesn't go home anytime soon. She's doing wonders for my ego.
