I found out about it accidently from a friend, but since I am attracted by all sorts of social experiments, I decided to give it a go. I can say that the evening left me with a positive impression. Although I spent almost an hour socialising with total strangers, I felt no stress or discomfort. (Tomas, 26)
I had many doubts whether I should go, but then I thought that speed dates would probably be the ideal place to meet people that I wouldn’t otherwise. All in one evening, I had a chance to date a corporate manager, an engineer, an IT specialist, and a musician. I think this unconventional dating method is like a blind date with a group of people. Knowing that you won’t be alone in it gives you courage and confidence. I will definitely go again! (Kristina, 29)
Who could have thought that this is such a simple way to meet a new girl: you don’t have to dance, buy her drinks, escort her home, make promises, you just come and enjoy the socialising. (Marius, 20)
15 Lt. ... it’s like a movie ticket :) Plus a glass of wine, it’s excellent! (Greta, 30)
I work a lot and therefore meet guys at nightclubs or bars. Sometimes you meet a good-looking guy, start talking and he begins preaching about nuclear energy or similar stuff. You have to spend an hour pretending this is all very interesting and then lie that you had your cell stolen, the phone at home as been disconnected, etc. At speed dates I met not just one or two, but ten guys in one night. After the very first minute I knew which one of them was worth it. (Jurgita, 33)
I am 35. Many single men of this age who are looking for a serious relationship do not enjoy going to nightclubs or bars to meet women. Some go for Internet dating sites. Here you can talk to girls and choose your partner based on hobbies, common interests and remain anonymous. But the problem is that the sexy girl you met in the virtual space is really not a girl at all, but rather your next-door neighbour a mechanic. Speed dating is a thousand times more fun than online dating because you can see the person you’re talking with. So I would really recommend giving it a try. (Danielius, 35)
