What should i do*?

It's important to prioritize your own comfort and boundaries in a situation like this. If you feel awkward or uncomfortable with the idea of being set up, it's okay to politely decline. You could express your appreciation for the gesture, but also explain that you would prefer to let things develop more naturally and not feel forced. Alternatively, if you're open to getting to know the person but wary of the circumstances, you could suggest a casual group outing with your friends and their partners, rather than a one-on-one date.

Well if you are single it sure wouldn't hurt to respond and who knows where it might or might not go, but at least you will know you gave it shot.

It's obviously a setup. Is that a bad thing?

@saraupstair ussually that’s more quality bc the person that set it up knows both parties

Breaking the ice is the hardest part.

Why not go with the flow? What exactly do you have to lose here?
