Gemara Kop

 


 

This one's a quick story. The guy was nice, even good looking, but clearly not for me.
I decided to test him a bit for fun, totally harmless (really).
I started talking about my studies at Bar Ilan and I mentioned the two Gemara courses I was taking as part of the required לימודי יהדות. He did a small double-take, a thoughtful, quiet yet noticeable pause. "Really? You learned Gemara?" I think I managed to hide the gleeful smile of someone who has successfully (though not necessarily in a positive way) rocked someone else's world.

Sure enough, he spoke with the shadchan/it (can't remember who it was) who passed on to...I think my mother (who was none too pleased, having seen right through my "innocent" comment) told me that he mentioned something about me learning Gemara.

Hee-hee!
