Hooking up through friends

By Miss Kes 

It is difficult to meet someone good these days, and so some people find that hooking up through friends works because it saves time. Would you hook up through a friend if you are single?ST:I have been hooked up this way and it backfired, so no. What happened was my friend that hooked us up never fully researched the guy and it turns out he was with his kid’s mother and I was really upset at the entire thing so I prefer just doing it the traditional way.Shelly:I see nothing wrong with it. I have hooked up my friend with another and they are now engaged so it can work out.TG:I would advise people not to because it can slap you in the face if it doesn’t work out. I try to stay out of my friends’ relationships. If they want someone, they need to go find him or her.FC:I think it is a very bad idea. I have heard success stories but I prefer meeting someone on my own.HB:My guy was introduced to me by a friend and we are still going strong after a year. It can work out.
