Think of it like this: essentially, you are hosting a party. You want all of your guests to feel comfortable, since that will make the evening more enjoyable for everyone. Your friend probably would not have asked if she didn’t think it could potentially cause a problem.

And if moving her to a new table is just not an option, then the two should not be seated next to each other.
