I have over the last few weeks been tossing and turning about something said to me innocently by my friend Pam. She was musing aloud that perhaps she should set me up with a friend of hers although even now i am left with a slight suspicion she might be thinking of me as a source of Human Resource information as much as romance. Its an occupational problem these days for me.

But the idea of setting me up didn’t feel a happy one for me and i am not sure why. I’m single, i am not dating and there isn’t anything on the romance horizon. Actually on reflection i am not certain where that metaphorical horizon even is. Must be there somewhere in the fog.

I guess my biggest reluctance is those memories of all those times in the past that friends have set me up with other friends. You know how it goes. Friends get in to a relationship and go through that phase where they are in the honeymoon part of the relationship of which part is that they start setting random single friends with other random friends of the opposite sex. What they never take into account is whether people are actually compatible or not as the case may be and things ended badly. Hence my fear of the whole situation.

Yet still i toss and turn. Whats that all about?
