There's a local event coming up at the end of the month, with a $30 join fee. I'm just curious on how it went for other people that have tried. Was there a pretty distinct variety of people?

Yes.

 

I have done a few speed dating events and I have seen a few people after the event. I like speed dating events more than OLD because you can actually talk with people and get a feel for who they are before meeting - unlike OLD. You do tend to get similar type people - but, I am a woman and I can't speak to a mans perspective. If you like meeting new people and you are good at sharing a conversation, it will be ok. Just don't do interview style questions in your brief time together... let the conversation flow. It's just a quick meet and greet to decide if you want to meet someone again... not an interview for a life partner.

 

I actually met the guy I am dating now at a speed dating event. He went with a friend and he was the first guy to come to my table. Big hint, he came back to me at the end of the night to tell me how much he enjoyed talking with me and he told me he would like to see me again... Bonus points;). He lives five minutes away from me abut we would never have met otherwise... You just never know who you will meet!

 

Good luck.
