Trixie.

My friend has a guy she wants me to meet. She told me about him and I realized that we’ve crossed paths multiple times in the past. His mom was in my parent’s wedding, we did some Covid work together, I met him years ago through a mutual friend, and he liked me on a dating app but I had originally said no. Would it be okay for me to send him a friend request now? We haven’t officially met since the first time, and I don’t want to look desperate. I just regret not matching with him in the past. Thoughts?

Why hasn’t your friend introduced you two?

She’s talked about it but she’s really busy and it may or may not happen. I realized after she mentioned him how many times we’ve run into each other, and that he liked my dating profile. I don’t want to weird him out, but I don’t see how it would. You miss 100% of the opportunities you don’t take, right?

Ask her to send you both a message on social media, then you can take it from there. It would take her all of one minute to do…

I like Maddie’s idea. I think it’s fine to send him a friend request, but he may or may not accept it, and if he doesn’t you’ll be in agony. And if/when he accepts, it may be a little weird to start a conversation out of the blue. Having your friend connect you two with a message over social media is a great idea. It makes it much more likely that you will connect and start to have a conversation with this guy.

Do NOT send a friend request. He needs to chase you. Doing so shows yours cards and does not allow the right setting for a potential relationship.
