Recently one of my good friends ask whether there are some pretty girls in my office still single?Because he really want to have a girl friend due to his parents push him so much.Then after a short thinking I figure out that I do have a workmate like that,she just broke up with her boyfriend a month ago so she is available right now,so tonight she will have a dinner with my friend,really wish they can like each other and if that happen I will feel happen very well,haha.

I can say you have done the good job keeping in mind about the boy and knowing the back ground of your workmate (lady). If everything goes well as you think then surely they must be the happy persons.
But tell me do you know the boy very well? Other wise after knowing that your workmate had already broken her love with her previous boy friend may also thinks to be like pass time with her and leave her when he finds the another girl or if his parent reject her being she was in love with some other boy previously may object for the same.
I am sure you must have given some idea about the girl to your friend.

I never did those blind dates. I really feel uncomfortable being set up that way. I'd rather date a person that I have become friends with for a long time than be on a date with a person I will just meet.

Even I am of the view that blind dating is always dangerous and may be harmful too. It is safe and good to have the dating with known person.

Yes I agree with you,date with someone you know clearly will be much better,and I think the blind date is suitable for those do not have many friends of the opposite gender.

In my twenties I would always be going out dating, I have had many experiences of blind dates, most, sadly have turned out bad. Usually with the person I am supposed to be meeting for the first time seeing me and walking off, or being rude to me because they have wasted their time going on a date with me! It's like oh thanks, charming. I always make the best of a bad situation, if I don't have feelings for the person I would never be rude and would enjoy the evening, even if I know we will not see each other again. I did have a few successes however and one even turned into a partner. I guess it can be hit or miss, it's like a gamble really! Sometimes you win sometimes you lose.

Yes I like your attitude very much,no matter it hit or miss,sometimes you win sometimes you lose,so the blind dates still can be successful,and if it will not cause any damage so why not to join it?

I feel pity for that girl. It must be awefull to have a guy dumped with you because his parents want him to have a girl friend. I think if a friend or workmate would do a thing like that to me the friendship was over. There is a good reason why he does not have a girl friend. Especially in a world where there are living way more women as men!

Wow I think that you may be not very familiar with my country,firstly the quantity of boys are more that girls,and for your the other concern,the reason why my friend's parents push him to have a girl friend is just because their parents think my friend should get marry at his age but my friend do not willing to.Actually my friend is a good guy just a little shy.

dates are really intresting but sometimes blind dates turn horrible. my freind just went for a blind date after chatting with a girl in a dating site . he just shouted at the spot because the thing happened with him was terrifying. the girl he met was not a girl but a 45 year old women who used to chat with boys using the pic of jennifer lopez as profile pic. frnds date some1 whom you know really well.

Nope the idea doesn't appeal to me i like knowing what I am walking into. Even with pirctures a person can look great in a picture and then you meet them in person and don't like how they look. I think its better to just exchange numbers that way there are no surprises you know who it is you are supposed to meet.
