Alright, I don't know if you all are really paying attention to the situation posed. The question involved whether or not we saw someone who LOOKED like our best friend's significant other. If I thought he LOOKED like him, I'd try to go over and speak to him while he's with her (to be certain, of course). But her question involved whether we were UNABLE to get a closer look at him. If I was not sure, then I would have nothing to say. It has been my experience that women cause more problems when they are supposedly TRYING to help. I would rather take the gentleman's approach to "stay out of it" but ONLY if I'm not sure. If I AM sure, I will approach him and then tell her about CALMLY and GENTLY (but only when the timing is right). I don't like being a party to chaos or foolishness, and that's exactly what it becomes when the best friend ignores your desire to help and almost always takes HIS side over of YOURS, thus RUINING the friendship as opposed to strengthening it. Sometimes, as much as we want to help, we HAVE to use wisdom with everything we do.
