I've been asked to be a matchmaker for people who live thousands of miles apart. One of the matchees (who lives far far away) is a friend of mine who, I believe, does not really want a relationship, but a week of intense shaggery. She has asked me to get in touch with the other matchee who lives here in Ottawa, and, in a very subtle way, to suggest to him that he needs to buy himself an airline ticket, arm himself with a week's worth of condoms, and fly off into shaggerama paradise.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to do this in a subtle way --- ie. without saying "Get your ass off to (redacted) because (redacted) wants to (redacted) your brains out with no strings attached."
Come to think of it, this scenario doesn't really fit into the traditional matchmaking model in which the two matchees are equally ambivalent. The out-of-town matchee is lusting after the Ottawa matchee. So, we're starting out with an imbalance.
As you can see, I need some advice here about how to proceed. Should I:
1) Try to find a subtle way to convince the Ottawa matchee that he needs to head south.
2) Be direct with the Ottawa matchee and tell him that he has great potential for action in foreign lands.
3) Encourage the distant matchee to be her own matchmaker.
4) Encourage the distant matchee to find action in her own town.
5) None of the above.
