writes: There's this guy that my friend knows from college. He liked her during college, but she said that he isn't her type. My friend still talks to him on the phone and is trying to set me up with him. We started to e-mail back and forth, but when I told my friend this she seemed shocked and offended that he was paying attention to me. My friend has a boyfriend and she is already talking about marriage, so why would she care if her friend talked to me? Is she just mad that the attention isn't on her anymore? She is a major flirt, so I bet she would be flirty with her guy friend if he ever came to see me, so I don't know if I should pursue anything because she seems to not want to let go of him.

Why would she be 'shocked and offended' if she's the one trying to set you up with this guy?! She sounds like she always wants to be the 'more desired' (it goes back to the school playground in my mind, "He likes ME better than YOU") and this is just screaming insecurity on her part.
I think you need to have a chat with your friend and ask her what her issues are as she's acting a little 'dog in the manger' about this. She doesn't want him but doesn't want you to be more desired by this guy than her!
