The interview portion is very important in determining the eligibility of the potential friend dater. The interview gives you and select members of your inner circle the opportunity to know the applicant even better so make the most of it. Feedback to the applicant is strongly recommended. Intimidation tactics are also recommended. Think of investing in black attire, dark sunglasses, and briefcases. Have some balance in your interview panel by having at least one callous member who would find fault in all applicants. Making under-the-table deals with applicants by any member of the panel is frowned upon, but not prohibited. (Do so discreetly, and at your own risk)

Sample Interview:

1.) What is your projected commitment time? Guess too little and you need to pay overage charges. Guess too much and it'll be a waste.

2.) If cheese ruled the world, which would be the ultimate cheese?

3.) What's your worst quality and why? (Panel is to respond to every statement made by potential friend dater with various forms of "really?")

4.) What would you do on your dream date?

5.) What is your dream break-up?

6.) If you were a color/fruit/vegetable/fish/ what would you be and why?

7.) Name 15 fantastic qualities of (insert name of best friend here)

8.) Favorite musical?

9.) Are you now or have you ever been in the member of the Communist Party?

10.) Convert your height to metric units.

After an applicant has been granted permission to date your friend, follow-up measures must be taken. The testing process is not fool proof and human error does occur. Some tips include:

-befriending private investigators

-doing a quick background check on past girlfriends/boyfriends to prevent vindication

-familiarize yourself with restraining orders

-mandate relationship check-ups/group therapy
