PJKino Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Not that i necasarily want to be set up but the fact that they never tried kinda makes my self esteem pretty low Im pretty close with my friends wives/fiances and they never have set me up with a single women they know,yet other peole in our circle including some dude who i guess is pretty good looking but kinda alloof and socially awkward theyve trid to set up numerous times. I guess they dont feel im good enough to be set up
knaveman Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Don't worry, my friends have never tried to set me up either. My parents did once. Total disaster.

Yeah as i said its not that i think it would work its more along the lines of what kind of catch can i be if my good friends dont even think im good enough to be set up?
carhill Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 I would have a different opinion if the friends acted equally. Since they don't, and set up other male single friends, hence my advice, presuming they are aware of your status and interest in meeting available ladies. That doesn't mean dump them as friends, but network further afield to get the introductions you desire......and put less energy into the other friendships. Friendship is a two-way street.

I dont think they know many single women as of now but the few who were avialable were attempted to be set up with others
Vertex Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Perhaps you come off as someone who doesn't need any help setting up? Maybe they figure you are better off than some of your other friends? It's too hard to tell. Try just asking your friends if they could help out/maybe help identify someone to set up with (or something along those lines).
AD1980 Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 No offense but you're probably not much of a looker then especially if they like you which means its not you're personality.. While women try to hook their female friends up with somebody who may be compatible with its mostly what they think that person likes physically.. Hard to present a friend who not that good looking to a female friend.. "Hey this i want to hook you up with my friend Mike hes not attractive at all physically but hes such a sweetheart"
carhill Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Again, a good sign of the quality of the friendship
AD1980 Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Again, a good sign of the quality of the friendship Ehh doesnt necssarily mean that.. Ive never get set up and i love my friends and their wives its mostly because im not that attractive and im shy around single women.. This dude may be the nicest guy in the world but if hes shy and not good around women why would they try to hook him up?
carhill Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Let me try again. If a friend even thought 'carhill is homely and no way would I embarass myself by fixing him up with someone I know' but 'xxxx is hot and she'd love to meet him' , that friendship would be over in about 30 seconds. Trust me
