Life crossings

Have you ever had the occasion to have 2 really great friends from different parts of your life, that live in the same city, love the same things, and would probably be a great friends/couple? How do you get these two together

...hm.

Easy option #1 involves you living nearby, or having friends who live nearby, and throwing an intimate dinner party to which the two of them have been invited.

More difficult option #2 would require one of them needing help with something (moving would be ideal) and hey poof, you just happen to know someone else in town who might be willing to help...

Options #3 and up all devolve into romantic comedy.

Option #1 - I live hours away from them. I won't be going to Ottawa until probably November but could arrange to bring friend A to where friend B will be.

Option #2 - is viable. Friend B is hunting for new living digs and might need some help. Don't know if friend A would have time to help.

Option #3 - I wish......

Romantic comedy _is_ the way to go if you can manage it but difficult to pull off.

Good luck!

Option No. 1 - Honest and direct. Tell each of them about the other. Suggest a coffee date.

Option No. 2 - Send theatre tickets to his address but inside the envelope is a letter in her name with the two tickets. It will appear that the theatre screwed up. He then needs to go over to her place to return the tickets. Unfortunately when he drops by her friend is there instead and he falls for the friend. A whirl wind romance develops. Meanwhile he meets your friend, the intended one but doesn't like her at first. Unfortunately there is a few funny mistakes he breaks up with the girlfriend when he discovers that she is a CSIS agent. He then realizes that he really loves your friend. They get married and develop technology to cut theatre energy consumption by 50 %. Just like real life.

Orlando Bloom and Scarlett Johansson play your friends. I play your friend's date in one funny scene so I get to kiss Scarlett. My wife wants to play the other girl so she can kiss Orlando.

I think I know one of your friends. I think you should not introduce your two friends for at least another 3-6 months since the friend that I know will be having alot of changes in his life and will not necessarily have/make the time for somone new.

HOwever, if the friend that I don't know wanted to help out at Orpheus musical theatre in the fall, there is a moderate chance they would meet on thier own. (and if she doesn't hit it off with our mutual friend, then there are some other nice people there.)
