I always buy them in pairs, I want the car to drive properly, but I do not buy the 'safety' argument.
I have driven a LOT of cars where one shock/strut is leaking or totally worn out, and the other one is still functional. I am sure everyone on this board has at some point.
It's not ideal, but it's unlikely to make you crash.
If the opposing strut is good, and at that mileage it should be, I don't think I'd lose any sleep over 'one new, one used'.
