[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teens don't seem to set their friends up like they used to in our day, OP.

[b]It was very common in my time especially because so many of us girls had parents who wouldn't allow us to go on a date unless it was a group situation.  Don't you ever remember taking one for the team?  Having to go on a date with the annoying or less attractive friend of a friend's boyfriend so they could go on a date. [/b]

My mother once suggested something similar to my niece she was lamenting to my daughter about not having a boyfriend during Valentines.  She told DD to find a friend for her cousin and my daughter was horrified.  She said something like: "OMG, I get, like, crazy anxiety just recommending a friend try a restaurant or food that I liked.  Like, what if they hate it?  What if it makes them sick?  What if they think I'm crazy for liking this place as much as I do?  That's my mental breakdown for food, Grandma, and you want to go a step further and try to recommend a human to another human?  I can't.  I just can't!"    [/quote]

This all seems like it is out of an episode of Leave it to Beaver. How old are you people? I'm nearing 50 and we never recruited our girlfriends to date our boyfriends' friends. [/quote]
