[Avodah] Asei doche lav and mitzvah haba'ah ba'avererah

>>Similarly, today a friend had a  question: a (male) friend of hers had
just broken up with his girlfriend, and  he was somewhat inconsolable.
He indicated he needed a hug, and she replied  that she is shomer
negiah, but he insisted again. She in the end hugged him,  but asked me
what I thought. <<
 
>>>>>
Too bad she didn't ask me what /I/ thought.  I think the guy's a  smooth 
operator and she fell for a line. She is too young and gullible to  be left alone 
with a guy.  Hm, there's another halacha that might have  protected her, if 
she'd known about it: yichud.  It protects the sheep  from the wolves.  It 
protects the wolves too.
