Who knows you better, your family or your friends?

This weeks single man is Richard Taylor, 26 year-old musician from Southampton. His mother Meg chooses one girl, and his best friend Danny chooses another. Then Richard goes on a date with each girl. Which girl does he prefer? Who knows him better, his mother or his best friend? Who chooses the right girl for him?
I usually work in England but sometimes I work abroad too. When Im not working I like going to the cinema and eating in nice restaurants. Im not very sporty and I dont do any exercise, but at least I dont smoke.
I think Im open and friendly I get on well with most people but Im sometimes quite shy too. For example, I dont like going to parties. I prefer to meet friends individually or in small groups.
I like intelligent, funny women who make me laugh, and ideally who love music. Physically I prefer women with dark hair who are not taller than me. And I like women who are good listeners.
Im sure that my friend Danny knows me better than my family because we often talk about girlfriends and the problems we have. I dont usually talk to my family about that kind of thing. My mum always says that I look for the wrong kind of girl but thats what mothers always say!
A Who do you think knows you better, your family or your friends? Why?
