Wow! I tried, but was lost on this one.

I think the directions could be a little bit clearer. When you said put the words in pairs, I thought you meant they would form a (compound) word. I sat there trying to match "peer" with every word and couldn't come up with anything that made sense. Otherwise, good teaser.
