Being the matchmaker in your friends’ circle is no crime. However, in the long run, you can become infamous for trying to set up your single friends with random strangers.

When you play the ‘cupid’, it does not matter whether you are single or not. The bottom line is that setting other people up brings you satisfaction.
You will connect with the below mentioned pointers, if you have played this role in your life (…as well as others’) –
You never ask permission of the person you want to set up. You meet as a group, but disperse with the rest except the poor fellow and the person you have chosen for them.
You have many friends – male and female. You know their respective traits which makes it easier for you to shortlist the ideal one for your single friend.
You also pick the venue for the potential couple. You make sure that the individuals get enough alone time to get to know one another.
There are instances when you help them pick the right clothes, too. You want both persons to strike a chord instantly.
You might take your friend on a surprise trip with the intentions of setting them up with another person. While at it, you let them know what they are in for and encourage them to have a great time.
You do not shy away from sharing personal data, because you trust both the persons. Though they might have an issue with it, you somehow manage to convince them that it is all for a good cause.
Your expectations are always high. You want this set up to work. In order to ensure that things fall in place, you do not mind crossing the line. Nevertheless, it is a safe risk.
You know that the eventual outcome is not in your hands. If the outcome is negative, you are definitely disappointed, but not discouraged. You try to set the person with another individual, again.
