Woman Seeks Sensitive Partner to Embrace Family's Mental Health Challenges
Sivan Levi, a 29-year-old digital marketing professional from Ma'ale Adumim, is seeking a partner who can handle the complexities of her family life, including two brothers who suffer from schizophrenia. Levi, who describes herself as confident and a "gift to any man," admits to feeling shame about her family's situation, fearing potential partners will "disqualify" her because of it.
She recounts a past relationship that ended abruptly when her ex-boyfriend's mother reacted negatively to the news of her brothers' condition, saying, "Wow, that's stressful. Don't let it break out on you too." This experience taught Levi the importance of finding a man with high emotional intelligence who can "contain" her family and her without judgment.
Levi has become the "pillar of the family," both physically and mentally, managing household responsibilities and providing daily support for her mother and brothers. She developed strong emotional intelligence from a young age, offering motivational talks to her siblings as early as sixth grade due to the family's difficult circumstances and financial instability.
In addition to her professional life, Levi volunteers weekly at an organization supporting people with intellectual disabilities and aspires to open a personal empowerment center in the future. She previously endured a "toxic" relationship with a verbally abusive and manipulative partner, from whom her mother eventually intervened to protect her.
Levi is looking for a warm, sensitive, ambitious, and independent man with strong values and a stable outlook. She emphasizes the need for a partner who will stand by her side and support her, particularly given her deep commitment to her family. She also seeks someone who is at least moderately religious, as faith is a significant source of strength for her.
