If you played "matchmaker" for two people you thought would be perfect together...but it didn't work out...would you feel any responsibility?...and would you feel the need to choose sides?

NO!!!!!!!!!! It's up to the two people Urs and if you cared for them before...you care for them after. Doesn't change who they were to begin with and I imagine those two people would end up as friends anyhow, no matter what.

rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing I did it by accident once.. damit... I went out with a few friends that I never mixed-up before.. and well two went home with each other... 'ACK... Cough *****CHOKE....

All they wanted to do was try to tell me how bad the other was in bed for weeks.. I would just not talk about it ..

Did I feel bad.. Nope.. they are adults and they make their own choices...

so as a match maker... forget it~! If ti did nto work.. who cares, they are still both living!professor

matchmaking and corraling two to get together are two different issues.
nothing worse then telling a friend ", thanks, but not interested" and Pow 2 weeks later,you end up
at a social gathering and guess what? yep its a like a blind date sorta, except you the only one who did not know anything about it. thats just wrong.

is that like saying, playing the devil's advocate?

On one hand, you feel or intrepret one person's needs, fancies, styles and personalities and try to match them for what you are feeling and not necessarily for what the matchmade person is feeling and/or open to....

All I know is by personal experience, the blind date and/or matchmade dates are a rare success...

If the friendship was deep before, it should be deep through all of life's disappointments and failures. No one is to blame when a match does not work out except for the parties involved.

In fact, if it does not work, I would be happy for my friend that he/she did not get further involved and really hurt down the road.

After all, compassion and caring for our friends should over ride all other feelings, even bitterness.
