Still dating only the "conventional" way? Have you ever dabbled in speed dating? Read on, and learn more about speed dating's distinct advantages!
Depending on your age, how long you have been dating, and geographic locale speed dating - where you go on many, 5-minute dates, versus the one longer date with the same person - may be just the thing to jump start your entre into the world of relationships.
Here are some of speed dating's advantages:
#1 - The ability to meet many people on one evening and learn more about them. Instead of meeting one person in a few hours, you will usually meet at least a dozen.
#2 - If you don't like the 'date,' he or she is literally out of your face in 3-5 minutes and on to the next! You are obviously forced to cut to the chase when you only have three minutes to talk and find commonalities, but I consider that a good thing.
#3 It eliminates the small talk and useless chit-chat and makes you get right to . . "Favorite way to spend a day off?" "What are your hobbies?" "What is a pet peeve of yours?" So no beating around the bush!
#4 - You are able to better compare your options, choices, or dates vs. the difficulty you have when you go out with one individual on Monday night and the next not until Saturday night. Meet everyone all at once in the same evening and they are all fresh in your mind and easier to compare/contrast.
