Maybe just reflect a bit on whether you would really like to meet this person - not because of what other people with good intentions think. What would YOU like to do?

I know we are social creatures and we tend to think being within a state of couplehood is 'necessary.' I suppose for some people that is really true. But, there isn't anything wrong with not dating and enjoying your own company and the company of friends.

If you are just really unsure, perhaps tell your matchmaker you could be open to meeting this other minister (or other eligible men) sometime in the future but at the moment you have other things you're focusing on.

He's a deep thinker? THat could code for pompous, boring, or self- absorbed . . . She could be sparing you in a way that isn't outright disparaging him.
