Introductions

[sobrique]

This may sound like a stupid idea, but it's one I've been pondering. Is it likely to be workable to ... ask around friends who are single, and would prefer not to be, and introduce them to friends of other friends? Sort of like a dating agency, but on the theory that there will be a certain amount of commonality, and ... at least hypothetically, some notion that the two people might just get along.

Does that sound a recipe of disaster?

You could always have a party/gathering and invite as many people as possible who are single but would rather not be, then see what happens (and run bets on it, if you're feeling sadistic ;o))? I know I find a lot of the time these days that when I go out, the people I meet are almost always part of a couple already. A bigger social gathering would make it less awkward than a one-on-one meet up, whilst still giving the people the chance to meet each other.
