I can't believe the phone call I just received. Unbelievable.
I go to a social/cultural meeting once a month. The lady who runs it is very cool. She just called me on the phone.
It turns out she described me to a friend of hers who might be interested in coming to this meeting. I'm supposed to act as if I don't know, but she wanted to tell me about this lady's qualities and "resume."
My intellectual pursuits in my free time are just that....my free time..if you meet someone you like at these things, then so be it. But if you do, it should be by chance, unrehearsed and not set up.
This is NOT the first time that it has happened. I NEVER ask anybody to set me up, yet people (90% of the time women*) take the liberty of doing just that.
*Actually, my brother set me up on a couple of occassions with more "equal" matches, so I didn't care as much.
I would be glad that someone is looking out for me.. now if it is not wanted.. then maybe you need to tell this lady .. thanks but no thanks.. I am not in the market for anyone..

The problem is that the lady has already made plans to come to this meeting and, in my mind, for the wrong reason...and then the club president called me. This was something I looked forward to going to and I had made friends there. The part I hate about this is that a person may not be interested ... yet they are interested in you. I hate that. And yes, I've been on the wrong side of this equation, too.
oh, my friends try to do that to me all the time. in fact, my friend has been hounding me about talking to this guy at this party she's having tonight. she doesn't realize that when i say i don't feel like meeting anyone new, i mean it. ugh.
Yes, what she did was inappropriate. It would have been different if she had asked you first, "I'd like to tell my friend about you; are you okay with that?" Unfortunately, it will now be an awkward situation. Even if her intentions were good, her way of doing this was not.
