Since you, presumably intentionally, wrote "finding a spouse" instead
of "finding a wife", which would be the normal way to say it, what is
your source for your assertion that a Jewish woman -- who is not
obliged to marry anyone -- is permitted to leave Eretz Yisrael to find
a husband?

               no fun at all playing tag with him during recess.
