I used to host speed dating events. In fact, I hosted them for over six years as I was trying to find Mr. Amazing, or at least my next boyfriend.
The thing about speed dating is – it gets a bad rap. People think that they can show up just one time, and if they don’t meet anyone fabulous, or they look around and there aren’t at least 10 hot men or women, then it’s just a waste of time. I’m here to tell you that this is a completely wrong approach.
If you want some tips on how to make it work better for you (or if you just want to try it and aren’t sure what to expect), check out my article on The Dating Thread. I think speed dating can actually help us let go of some of our bad dating habits. It forces us to go against our comfort zones in many ways, which is always a good thing.
Happy Monday!
