NEED HELP ON THE JEWISH DATING SCENE!
Dear Sherri and Keri
I've been dating a doctor for over a year, and he never has time for me. He and I are both Jewish and have really gotten along so well. He's fabulous in every way. He's talked about getting married and I want to. Bu I'm sick of sitting home alone every night and going out with girlfriends. If we get married, at least I'd see him at night. We hardly see each other twice a week! He says he loves me and that his schedule at the hospital won't change for many years. What should I do?
Lisa, 37, Manhattan Beach

Dear Lisa,
Now you can see why the divorce rate among doctors is so high. They work long hours and oftentimes make work their top priority. But he has to or he'd not of made it as far as he has. If you're unhappy after just a year of dating, then it's time take stock of things for yourself and perhaps even move on. If, on the other hand, you're truly in love with him and want to make it work, then sit down and explain to him how you feel. Ask him if he's really serious about marriage. It sounds like he is. The issue as we see it, is that you want a successful man but don't want him to put in the time to be successful. So you'll have to take a good look at yourself  what you really want from this or any future relationship. No one is perfect and it's almost impossible to have it all! You say you want to have a family... We think it's time to grow up, work things out with your man.

HATE BLIND DATES!
Dear Sherri and Keri,
I joined on of those Let's meet at lunch dating services and it just didn't work out for me. I want to meet a woman  with a Christian back ground and he needs to be handsome too. I'm just not into blind dating and that's pretty much what it was. Do I get to see photos or videos on the women I would meet if I work with you?
Mark, 34, Realtor, Redondo Beach

Dear Mark,
We would meet you in person like we do all our potential clients. Everyone has different criteria that is important to them. And many include religion on that list. We show you bios (with pictures) of some of the women we think would be a good match for you. You decide if you're interested in the women that we show you then decide if you want to join. If you do join, we would e-mail the women's bios and the phone numbers. So, your answer is "yes" you always get to see photos. And they always get a bio/photo of you too.

STILL TOGETHER BUT NOT MARRIED?
Dear Sherri and Keri,
We are still dating and going strong but not yet engaged. We don't even live together, although we spend quite a few weekends looking at houses together.  I'm sure we will get married some day, but it just hasn't happened yet. 
Susan, 41, Business owner, Redondo Beach

Dear Susan,
You and John have been an item for at least 4 years! You were 37 when you first joined and shortly thereafter met John.  And we just checked your file to see you'll be turning 41 soon.  A year of dating exclusively is usually enough time for a couple to know if there's a future together.  But for goodness sake, four years as a couple and still no plans to tie the knot?  You don't seem that worried about it, and if you've given up on the idea of having children, perhaps there's no sense of urgency.  It was our understanding that John was interested in starting a family some day and that you could go either way on having children, so has something changed?
