Twice, neither lead to a second date. On one I was interested, on the other she was interested.

Once. A mutual friend who knew us both well. She stood up for us at our wedding.

I originally misread that. I thought you typed "she stood us up for our wedding". I had to reread it because I wasn't sure why you'd be happy about that.

never, but I suspect that might change if I don't get a gf soon. All of the guys I pal around with except one are getting married this summer, but that other one is a wasted cause

Just once. She was a nice girl, but we didn't click. 2 weeks after we went out she was engaged to someone else.

Same h.... um, did you just call me a wasted cause?

Seriously though, I'm in the same boat, one of the last holdouts in my particular circle of friends.

I was single until I was 38. I got set up on dates fairly often. Most of the time, they were nice enough guys, but no spark on one side or the other. Only two turned out to actually be jerks.

The last time I was set up, he was a very nice guy, so I married him.
