Dear Cupid,

Why are my friends trying to push me and one of my guy friends together?

We are both university students and I have to admit there is chemistry there... he likes me but doesn't want to sabotage his degree and vice versa.

The only thing is my friends are aware of this and are constantly pushing us to get together, and finding every opportunity to leave us on our own. Its like they have no idea of the effect it is having on us as friends.

What really got to me was a couple of days ago, I had arranged to meet friends at the cinema at 7pm. That afternoon I received a phone call off my friend (who had no idea I didn't know) that they had all arranged to go the cinema early that afternoon so by the time I arrived at 7pm it would have just been me and this guy.

As you can imagine I wasn't a happy bunny. I pulled my friend over it and he denied setting me and this guy up... so obviously I believed him... But when I was going home one of my friends rings and tells me this guy had phoned her asking if we were all still meeting at 7pm...which points to the obvious that this guy had no idea either... Why did my friend lie to me, I know that he wants me and this guy to get together but he can't see the strain that its putting on mine and this guys friendship.

god how embarrassing! tell them you are pissed off with them matchmaking like this. they are not respecting your wishes and they need to keep out of your business. you are a big girl now, and you don't need your mates pushing you and this guy together. its sweet that they are trying to help and they think you and the guy would be so good together but they should not be playing around with your lives like this.
