Gadolhadorah, I don’t know what circles you come from or identify with. In yeshivish circles which the writer claims to belong to (I believe he really meant this to be a dig – or in ‘Yeshivish’ – a shtoch) if someone yeshivish meets a yeshivish friend who’s on a date, he/she will either nod and look the other way or simply look the other way and pretend that s/he didn’t notice them. There would never be a need to introduce a date to someone you bump into. Who one is dating is a private matter – introductions are inappropriate.
