Can JDate Help Me Find My Modern Orthodox Beshert?
Dear Rachel,
It seems most of my matches on JDate are culturally Jewish, not practicing members. I am Modern Orthodox and am looking for someone with shared values and practices.
Will it be worth my investment to subscribe to JDate? In other words, are there like-minded men available for me to meet on the site?

Dear Looking for My Modern Orthodox Beshert,
Thanks for your question! I get a lot of questions from JDate members about finding someone who shares their values (and in many cases, religious observance). JDate offers a wide array of preferences for you to choose from when it comes to searching for the kind of people you’d like to meet. From age, and location to kosher standards and temple attendance, we’ve got all your bases covered.
By selecting the preferences that matter most to you in your search for a mate, you will be able to view members who match exactly those preferences. That means you can set your search settings to find your perfect Modern Orthodox match!
A friend of mine recently became Frum (Orthodox) and just moved to Los Angeles. She’s already met a guy on JDate who shares her same values and practices! I say, why not give it a shot? You may just meet your Beshert!
Xo,
Rachel

My search results include about 30 men, of whom almost all say they keep kosher “not at all”. So I’m down to four possibilities, all of whom are looking for someone younger than I am.
It sounds to me as if jdate would be a waste of money for me.
Do you still think it’s worth my while to pay to contact either the men who have no interest in me, or the one man who has expressed interest in me but who is almost certainly one who keeps kosher “not at all”???
