Ever Play Matchmaker? Did It Work Out?

[Lee]

My next door neighbor was separated from his wife and went on my computer to log in to a dating site. Kodak moment when his wife popped up as one of the matches. I told him that proved that they were meant for each other. He made me promise to never tell her what had just happened.

His wife popped over for a visit the next day, she cried and said she wished she had never put a restraining order against him and that she was just being spiteful because he had done so first after she had come to the house to "steal" some stuff after she left him.

Then he admitted to me that he missed her.

So there we were.....he was not allowed to talk or go near her as per the restraining order and neither was she to him.

Solution.....I called her on the phone, Don told me what to say to her, I did not repeat it exactly as said and then she answered, and so on and so on and gradually the three way conversation got more civil.

Happy ever after ending , they did get back together after all the legal stuff got sor

Not a matchmaker but on the receiving end of one. My cousin introduced me to her girlfriend, whom I'd never met. We hit it off well right from the start. That was in 1953. In '56 we were married and we're still strolling along, holding hands today.

I don't know if I would call it being A Match maker,but I had a friend from when I was in grade school. By the time she started College she had never had a date. She met this fellow and they would due crossword puzzles when they were between classes. One day she called me and said he asked her to go on a date with him. I said of course you should it's a date it's not like he asked you to marry him. Well she listened to me and they went on a date. Within the year they got married. He was a wonderful guy. He was the best teacher in our city. He went on to write a book and invented a game. Sadly he passed away at only 49yrs old. Still to this day my friend tells me that my advice to her was the best advice she ever got.

The one time I played matchmaker it blew up right in my face! I introduced my best friend to another dear friend of ours and it was like oil and water, I really thought they would hit it off as they had some common interests but their personalities just grated on each other, it was a train wreck, consequently I never attempted matchmaking again!

I have never ever hated anyone that much.
