I am playing matchmaker for 2 of my friends. They have so much in common, but we all went out and yet they did not hit it off but yet they are both attracted to each other. They just dont seem to communicate to well together. We all went out and watched football they chit chatted but nothing happening really. Yet they want to see each other again. I dunno..

I can see how they might feel pressured to have a good time with other people watching and analyzing their every move. Maybe they were too wierded out by the situation to really have a good time. It's good that they both want to see each other again though. This time they can get to know each other on their own terms. Maybe you made a great match!

haha, something like that happened to me, except i didn't set my friends up, they just hit it off..... so in that sense, it's not exactly like what happened to you, so i don't even know why i brought it up.

anyways, i say you, another friend, and them two make another meeting, but then you and the other person don't show up (car trouble or what not) so that way they HAVE to be alone and talk....... it would make for great random conversation for them, i think. but then again, you prolly shouldn't take my advice because i'm not good at these things...

Anytime 2 people are together under pressure things get tense.

In other words, they probably don't even know their true feelings yet because of the pressure-cooker atmosphere they have been in together.

Get/Let them go do something on there own... that way they won't feel so 'scrutinized' over how they feel toward each other...

Well, now that they met each other, they can go out alone, without the group of friends around them. You played matchmaker, now its up to them for whatever happens now.

I've given up on trying to hook friends up. It always comes back to bite you in the ass some way or another.
