Yes, I'm pushing the topic because I don't think people (not just GCers, but everyone) like to admit their fear of being the single one in a group of couples....

I think to say that everyone has a fear of being the single one in a group of couples is highly-over generalizing.
It may be that they don't know anyone at the wedding so they bring a nice guy they know. Maybe they are taking the guy b/c they are great friends. You or anyone else doesnt know that. Maybe they are taking the guy b/c they think he's great and they want to hook him up with another female friend that will be there. Maybe they are taking the guy because he's a good dancer and because of that he will be good company. It's not always a "fear" of being alone.
