Philosopher Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 Has anyone here had any experiences with speed dating? If so, did you have any success in terms of getting dates and did the dates go well? If you went on any dates, were they set up by waiting to receive contact information through the speed dating organisers of those you liked? Or where they set up face to face right after the event? I'm asking because I thinking of branching out from using OLD to get dates.
StayBeautiful Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 I've looked into it, but oddly this is one type of dating where men seem to be in more demand than women... so every time I thought I'd give it a go, it's been full for women, whilst they still have places for men.
CanCan Posted July 21, 2013 Posted July 21, 2013 I went to one this year. The one I went to, I have to say the women were more attractive than the men. Most of the men were socially awkward. I ended up picking only one guy out of the 15 I met. That guy turns out to be married and with child and was just there for his friend LOOOL so yeah.. I think speed dating could work for some people..it is just another way to meet with people. i think it just a matter of meeting the right person at the right time. 2
Author Philosopher Posted July 21, 2013 Author Posted July 21, 2013 Thanks for your comments so far. With myself I did go on one a couple of years ago and I met some interesting people. I said that I wanted to meet 5 out the 15 people again, however I didn't get any mutual matches, even though some of the women I met seemed like they quite liked me. My suspicion is that I should have arranged any dates right after the event face to face.
