A (No-)Touching Love Story: Why I Decided to Save Physical Contact for Marriage

from Torah Comes to Life | Rabbi Nir Menussi · host Nir Menussi

I want to share a little bit about my own decision to observe this custom, and why I still think it was one of the best and wisest decisions I’ve ever made.
