Where's the exit?

[Anonymous]

Some friends of mine have been trying to set me up with this girl. She is from their home country and she shares beliefs. I can tell she is smart and enjoy having intellectual conversations with her. Though I think she is pretty I don't have physical feelings towards her. Unfortunately the girl I do have feelings for doesn't share beliefs, so I'm waiting for a woman who has both. I still enjoy talking with her, but am not pursuing her, but the friends are still trying to set us up. I would like to make things clear, but am uncertain how to do so.

Go on a date with her so they get off your back.

That's the first step to pursuing, it would make things worst. I've been in group settings, but they keep saying we have so much in common.

They won't let it go until it's proven not to work

Maybe, that's a bit rough, but it may be my only way out.
