fight between the Self-respect and Ego

I was in this situation today. I had a word clash with my roommate. She asked me for a favor. She asked me for a fake date with the person she has crush on. A Fake Date just to know if he is a good man. Good trick. But i don't favor this method.
I said no to her.
then began this world war of high valued sentiments and disagreements between us.
Point 1. i don't want to date someone. this is personal. And so it came on my Self-respect.
Point 2. I did not like this idea of Fake Date. It would be only me there who would know that it was a fake. this is exactly like cheating someone. i would not do that. Self respect again.
Point 3. I am not helping my friend in this regard. She said it was my Ego. Is it really?
i said her if you like him just go and talk to him. But the question was to know about the purity of his soul in this century and about his dedication to her in every aspect.
Ohh.. it's so much.
How should i help her?

hahahha.. Actually yes, this is also the reason i didn't try this fake date. Because what you said come real, i would definitely end breaking someone's heart. And this will be no good to anyone of us.

I think it is more to do with self respect than ego here.
But I still dont get the story. Your roommate wanted you to go out with a boy she like? To see if he is a good man? But why does she want to find out if this boy is a good boy or not, so she stops liking him if he is bad? Then this is not love...

yeah, exactly. You got it correct. I don't understand since when the love is conditional. If it's her love or just crush.. it must be she to find out.

@AnthOcean and what happen if that boy is falling for you, or you falling for him? and he is also a good man? So does she still want you to go out with him?

@atoz1to10 you said it all so correctly. This is all i have been trying to make her understand. But she failed. Now i think she must be understanding all these.

Wow you are such a great friend..same here..I will not help a friend who will use me to cheat someone just to give her satisfaction..I suggest that you tell her that if she likes someone just be herself and if that man really is for her then it will be..A long lasting relationship usually comes from being a friend and then develops Love..

@AnthOcean ..I have the same friend like yours but I gave her time to calm..She will realize it in time, for me she can think whatever she likes to think but as long as I know that what I did was for her own good, Then, nothing is wrong not helping her.

yeah. I said the same to her. But you know, sometimes our mind is so well blocked that no matter what people say to you.. it will remain stubborn not to change the topic, not to understand the thing.. and stay over the blame game.
She is not ready to listen to me. Whatever i say she just says that i am not there to help her. What shall i do to her now.

It's not ego .she is wrong. She should not use you to cross check some one. What if he turns bad, and fake and you will be in danger. You life is precious for you.

yes, this is what i have been telling her. She says no.. he is a good man. I ask if he is so great then why she fearing so much?
She says it's your ego that you are not helping me(friend).
i hope she will understand it soon.

@josie_ yes, this idea had hit my mind. I told her this. But since she is so shy.. that she is refusing this idea all the time.

i suggested this to her. Yes, she is shy. And i am frank enough to say hello to person i meet. This why she chose me. But i am unable to help her on this regard.
