Yes, I tried it a few times before but all failed Since my good friend had been single for a long time and we almost all got married except for her. So I tried to introduce a few good men but finally they didn't succeed it. I am glad finally she was married last year

Hi youless! I am happy for your friend that she found the right one for her. I had been a matchmaker but have failed all the time. haha.. There is also one friend in my circle of friends who have not gotten married until now. She is very pretty and have brains but have shied away from any serious relationship after her break-up with her long time beau a few years ago. We all tried matching her with good looking bachelors but she always have something to say about the guys. I am just happy now that she is a relationship and hopefully she will take the plunge in marriage soon. And all of my friends are really praying for that to happen soon. Take care always..God Bless!

yes, i've been before during high school days but that time we're all young that's why it didn't work out for a long time. Now they have their own family..

That's quite early for you to be a matchmaker

Yes, i did play matchmaker to my two boardmates. I teased them one day and then the following day I saw them together go to church. ALl went well at first but they separated, the guy already married and the girl remained single and still available.

Hrm, yeah I kind of was....TRYING at least. One night we all went to the comedy cave, I got some free tickets, my roommate, my friends from high school, my 2 cousins, their father and one of their boyfriends all came along too, and I noticed that my roommate thought my friend from high school was cute. WELL every time we went out I would try to see if they BOTH would like to come along, so that they can hang out, yah know, not making it TOO obvious and whatnot haha. Unfortunately they never did get to hang out much again. But she likes another one of my friends but he's clueless lol.

This will make you laugh, I used to try and play matchmaker with my ex so that I could get rid of them onto someone else, but no one would have my ex, reckon I was the only dumb person to get involved with my ex. I tried to hard to matchmake and did everything, from getting my ex into online dating and introducing my ex to people but they saw through my ex and ran miles! I should have done the same thing when I first met my ex, instead of wasting time!

You are very kind and generous because you are eager to find someone else for your ex At least it's good that you won't become to enemies to each other.

I never try to match my friends. Good intentions very often can go to hell. people have to find their own way to search for soul mate.

hmmmm....let me recall, actually yes, our classmates in College, actually the girl at first didn't like the guy since she has another crush but her crush has a girl friend so she was okay when we match her with a friend and after graduation, they got married!

This is very good. As not many lovers will get married at last.

No I haven't so far and I don't like to be one because I think if they break up or have problems, then they would bother me and the idea doesn't seem very appealing to me! So I have never been one and most likely will never be one.

This is a big problem if they will break up since you are the matchmaker. Not only they will be upset, but also you will be sad to it.

Yes I did. I accidentally became a matchmaker for good friend of mine. I introduce him to my girlfriends which on the way hoem he told me that one of my friends looks so sweet. Then I started to be his matchmaker after that. I even get more excited if the 2 met each other and talk. If I remember that days, I could laugh at myself for being too aggresive tried to get them into a date.. I thought they will be a good couple if they could have a special relationship. My hardwork was paid, They become a lover and even get married and now have a cute litle boy.. Whenever we met we always laugh on how tricky I was tried to set them up for a date..

Good evening, youless. Yeah, I have been a successful matchmaker for my colleagues when one of my female colleagues gave out the sign that she was crazy about one of the male teachers. I helped her and him and they started to fall in love with each other soon, but got married a few years later. Now just this year they have got a baby girl. They are a happy couple. I am glad that I made it.

No I am not, nor have I ever been a matchmaker for my friends. I don't believe in meddling in their lives, and if someone tried that with me, I would be quite upset.
