Cupid, the Roman god of love depicted as a chubby naked baby holds a bow and arrow with which he shoots love into people’s hearts. Is that you job description as well? There may come a time when you have that male friend who likes your one of your female friends. You may or may not have been the one who introduced them but then when this happens you get to be the one he confides in and that puts you in the middle.
A girl always knows when a guy likes her even before he opens up. Ladies, abi no be so? He becomes extra gentle, courteous and attentive to your needs. No matter how he tries to hide it, you may get mixed signals at first but after a while, it is obvious that he is infatuated. Thus, in this case, your female friend would have already sensed his feelings.
In a situation where the girl is indifferent about the guy or she has permanently friend-zoned him in her mind, what do you do? You are stuck because the guy has opened up to you about his feelings and he hopes you can put in a good word for him. Meanwhile, the girl, knowing you two are really close, will tell you to give him a heads up so that things don’t get awkward.
As a girl, you understand that you can’t force him to love her,but as the guy’s friend you want him to hook up with her because he is a really cool guy. The solution is simple. To keep the friendship on all fronts, give the guy a subtle heads up. Tell him to take his time and not push too hard ‘cos once the words are out, you can’t take it back.
Playing cupid could come back to bite you, so let the adults handle their business as it ought to be; you can only advise.
