Hashkafa Q & A

Concerned wife: My husband is too talkative with a friend of mine A main impetus for the establishment of the freezer in BMG The void felt by misnagdim who lack invigoration by a Chassidishe Rebbe Should gender be a potent factor when choosing a therapist

  1. WADR R YY Reinman is a neo chassid & R ' Gerstein is out of the loop.
    Most chassidim are well aware their Rebbe ain't the GH or anything of that sort ( irrespective of what they'll claim to outsiders)

    Iirc In my little experience male therapists were far more competent than the females

  2. תנחומין של הבל נחמו ראש הישיבה לאותה אשה
    The RY is trying to calm her down, but shemira for hilchos yichud does not prevent a bond forming between them - much like if a man and woman are in public so there are no yichud issues, they can certainly shmooz about this and that and get familiar with each other. Is there a source that says the wife being there prevents anything besides yichud? There is such a thing as a platonic conversation ("Hello Mrs Klein, how is your husband? I just saw him at shul, he's such a good friend. Great, great guy" and g'endikt), but there is no such thing as platonic shmoozing. She should beware.
