I set up one couple in my life and thank goodness the worst thing that happened was that there was no chemistry. I will never play matchmaker again because I don't want to be blamed if I introduce two people and drama ensues, as I have seen in other instances.
I would say if your opposite sex friends don’t ever ask you if you’d like to be set up with someone single that they know but try to set other friends up then they think you’re unattractive.
If they thought you were attractive, they wouldn't want to be just friends.
This may sound awful, but any time I hear of an auntie trying to push her nephew on someone I assume he's totally unable to get a date and that Auntie equally thinks the girl is undesirable and will therefore be grateful for any date pushed on her. Ergo these two not very hot people are a good match and maybe the best one another can hope for.
I question any time a grown person can't figure out how to get his or her own dates.
I agree, Jerz. People with their lives and social skills squared away don't need that.
I have a friend (married) who has tried to set me up 3 times with guys. One of them was a best friend of her husband and she was desperate to get her husband to stop hanging out with him so much (because they played video games all day). I wasn't attracted to him in any way. The second one was a business associate of hers. My suspicion is that he liked HER and she was trying to pawn him off on me (lots of guys like her). The third one was without a doubt one of her orbiters/admirers and she wasn't attracted to him, but he did favors for her and her husband was getting jealous of him and demanding that she get rid of him. She thought it would make things okay if he just got a GF (me). I was in no way attracted to him either. So if I'm going by the original post, I really can't tell who she thought was the great catch. Probably none of us and she was just pushing her own agendas. So no, I don't think that's always true.
