Not I

Everybody wants to be with somebody and sometimes it might take somebody to get you to the somebody you could spend the rest of your life with or no? If you had a nice friend would you let someone else hook them up with their friend? What if he or she was gorgeous, with a lucrative job and well educated with one catch, they were not trustworthy and their track record with the opposite sex were, Can’t hold on to a decent relationship if their life depended on it. A lot of “companionship impaired” people are out there waiting for those of us who are the magnet for bad unions so if we had the opportunity how we handle it? I had a well-known acquaintance with a sexy but trifling female relative ask me if a handsome and successful friend of mine would be interested in having lunch with her.
Immediately, I shot back no, speaking for her and my long-time friend became incensed, wondering why? When I explained to him that as a friend I knew what he liked and would feel awkward, even somewhat responsible for putting him in such uncomfortable circumstances he continued to remain insulted which placed me in an position but even that didn’t persuade me to back down from my stand. If he had been a scoundrel then maybe getting them in one place together would have been the perfect match and the two could play each other with no regrets, no commitment or maybe a different and less favorable conclusion all together but that was one hook up I wanted no part in. As a genuine friend I couldn’t see it any other way. What are your feelings on it?
