(During combined RS/EQ we had an Institute teacher come give a lesson on marriage, which would've been an awesome coincidence if I hadn't known for a while that would be the topic, since I'm all in-the-know now and everything.)
Here it is.
Suggested Calling:
Relationship Status Coordinator(s)
Responsibilities:
Please let this be a real calling somewhere. If not, maybe I'll bring this up to the bishop in ward council next week. Maybe I can supplement my current calling with this. It's all about loving and caring for the girls, right?

- Keep tabs on ward members and their romances.
- Organize and update lists of single sisters (and brethren?) for the EQ (and RS?) to use in their dating endeavors.
- Suggest girls for each brother to ask out (not setting up or matchmaking, necessarily, just making names available). Again, if girls want to know what brethren are available, their names can also be suggested.
- Encourage regular, casual dating

This is a real calling. Jessame once had a singles ward where there was an official "Ward Matchmaker." For real.
Yep, that's the proof I was looking for! (I knew I'd heard of something like this before.)
Though, of course, I'd hesitate to call my idea a matchmaker...
Oh oh oh! Ideally it'd be an engaged girl (or engaged couple) so in their encouragement they could throw in platitudes like "You'll be so much happier, trust me. I can only hope you'll be as lucky as me. Just go for it! That's what worked for me!" That'd be awesome.
