Seems like an interesting premise.

However, I don't know how I'd feel about being introduced to a potential romantic interest by a female friend.

I don't claim to be an expert on dating, but I intuitively understand how social dynamics work.



Yeah, a woman letting go of a great guy seems strange. Women fight over great guys, not recommend them to other women.


What about women who are already in relationships? Or platonic friends with the guy? Or not into men?

There's a lot of situations in which this dynamic would work just fine.


Why wouldn't they just recommend the guy in real life then? Why need a complicated set up?


What would such a woman be doing on a dating website?
