Is she trying to "match make?"

[whattodo77]

Hi everyone,

I have been through a really bad break up in the last 2 weeks and my close friend has been there for me every step of the way. Calling me each day, coming to see me, supporting me, in short she has been an amazing help.

But i was a little suprised tonight, we were chatting and she dropped a comment that her son thinks i am gorgeous. I laughed it off but didnt say anything about it. Now her son doesnt live with her, and i havent seen him in person but i assume he knows about my friendship with his mother as we're reasonably close. He is 6 years younger than me.

She told me he "accidently" saw a photo of me on her facebook - quite suprising since he doesn't have facebook!!

Then she proceeded to tell me that he has a weakness for blondes (im bleached blonde) and i replied with "I am a fake blonde" and she said "They're the best ones" and then i asked her jokingly "Are you trying to match make?" and she then said that he was single.

 

What do you make of this? She knows i am still getting over my ex that i am still very much in love with, she knows every detail of the situation, so this threw me off a little.

 

She knows there's another guy on the scene that was pursuing me and pressuring me for a relationship, to which i told i am not interested and decided to end the friendship and when i told me friend this she was happy i had gotten rid of this other guy.

I think she is just trying to boost your spirits....you know make you feel good about yourself.

 

I don't think she is match making at all...basically she is being your cheerleader.

 

 

Now if she is trying to match you guys up, she is not thinking about your emotinal sate...I find it inappropriate at this time to be fixing you up with anyone.

 

Should have told her that it was flattering, but dating is the furthest thing from your mind.

Yup, being a good friend.

 

Sounds like your plate is full so reiterate your thanks, dish some details and have a few laughs and onward.

Thanks everyone. You have put me at ease as i am nowhere near ready to even think of getting to know someone yet. I want to focus on my own healing.
