Friendships will be at stake here. People can just ask their friends to come along to a party or some other event and let nature take its course. They can fill in their friends on key details about the group, like 'that's Tanya, she's single and this or that'. Keeping it casual with less pressure is the key. No blame game or anything...

Seems like a very minor enhancement to their site's UI. FB ad platform currently shows 34k single females to use your example of boston:
