Speed Dating
By Stuart Gregory
The art of dating has been around for a very long time. In the past, dating was more of a matter of meeting someone either at a bar, at an event, or even at work or school and then going out and having fun and getting to know each other. Like most other things, dating has evolved into various different forms. One form that is rapidly gaining popularity is speed dating.
What exactly is speed dating? you may ask. Speed dating is an event that you usually must sign up for in advance. There are many different services that offer this. At the event, people are paired off and allowed to talk to someone of the opposite sex for a small period of time, usually between 3 and 10 minutes. After this time limit, you switch partners. This is done for a certain number of rounds and then you are usually allowed to talk to anyone else who might interest you. Anyone who does interest you is written down on your dating card. If someone you wrote down also wrote you down, you are given each others contact information so that you can arrange a formal date if you wish.
This creates a fast paced, but often less frightening experience. You are spared of exchanging contact information with someone that you might not be interested in or who might not be interested in you and you are not obligated to spend a lot of time with one person.
Whereas this is a fairly new trend, it does seem to be quite popular. And it is successful too. Often times, a lot can be told from a first impression and this method allows you to get that without the obligation of spending more than a few minutes with the person.
