What would you do if one of your friends has a set up a date, and they want a chaperone as they don't know the person very well and don't want to be alone yet with them, so they call you and want you to chaperone them and tag along with them to dinner and movie or wherever they were going? Would you go along with and sit in the car and try to have a good time, and make sure you friend was safe and secure and having fun? Would you say sure, I'll be happy to help you out if you do something for me later? Would you say no way you are on your own and not go along with them on the date, and leave them up to themselves? How would you deal with this situation anyways?

Instead of feeling like a tag along I would offer to help my friend by doing a double date. That way I know my friend is safe, but instead of me feeling like the tag along maybe we could all have a good time as 2 couples enjoying a date together.

I like the idea of the double date if that is possible. What usually happens with my group of friends is we do a group activity. This allows for everyone to have a good time while being safe and not having just one person feel like a third wheel. It also allows for the whole group to evaluate the new person and give their feedback.

I find the double date a good thing to do. That way, nobody ends up like a poor chaperone on one side while the others are having fun.

I agree with the double date idea. if everyone could get together and have a good time, then no one will feel like the outsider, you know your friend would be safe that way, and who knows, it might be something you really enjoy and might want to do again.
