Speed dating

How to succeed at speed dating

Speed dating is one of the easiest, fastest and most fun ways to meet a lot of women in a single evening.

If you’ve never tried speed dating before, it’s a little bit similar to the game called ‘musical chairs’. Basically, the women are seated at tables and the men rotate around the room until each man and woman has had a chance to meet each other. You will sit and talk to a woman for about 5 to 10 minutes and then you’ll hear a signal that tells you it’s time to switch and you’ll move to the next woman.

Each person is given a ‘score card’ and if you like a woman (or several women) and would like to get their contact information, you will mark their name(s) on the card. And if those same women also have an interest in seeing you again, they will mark your name down.

At the end of the speed dating event or soon after, the event’s organizers will compare the cards. If the women you meet are also interested in you, you will each get the other’s contact information (e-mail or phone number). And then you contact the woman to talk further or to arrange a date.

However, if she likes you but you weren’t attracted to her or vice-versa, then neither of you will receive the other’s contact information. No rejection worries there. These events are often held at bars or clubs and there’s usually a nominal fee to participate. You can find speed dating events in your area advertised in your local newspaper or the Internet.

The best part is that if you’re not feeling it with a particular woman, your ‘date’ will only last a few minutes. Plus, even if you have to talk to a woman you’re not interested in, it’s a great way to get you relaxed and ready to talk to a woman you do you like. Okay, now that you know the basics, let’s get down to how to succeed at speed dating.

Of course you’ll want to look your best. That doesn’t mean you have to wear a suit (unless it’s appropriate to the event), but you do want to wear something nice and be properly groomed.

Since the women will be meeting many men, you’ll want to make a memorable first impression. This is the perfect time to stand out from the crowd by using your sense of humor and teasing her a bit. Just be sure not to use the same jokes and teases with each girl since you often will be sitting close to the last woman you spoke with and if she overhears you, you don’t want her to think that you were giving her a line. Lines are lame.

To come up with some funny to say, you might notice what a girl is wearing and say (with a smile), “That’s looks like an expensive outfit. I don’t know – you look kind of high maintenance to me…” Or you might take a similar tact and say something like, “My wife forced me to do this…she’s at home waiting to see how man yes’s I get…”

The point is to tease her, shock her, say something funny and throw her off her game a bit so she laughs and remembers you.

The subject of what you do for a living will invariably come up. This is another chance to stand out and not give a boring recitation of what you do for a living. For instance, if you are a construction worker, you might say something like, “I play in the dirt all day and build things…” Or if you’re an accountant, you might answer, “I make sure that the numbers add up and I help people to get rich.” If you’re a student, you might comment, “I spend my day working on my future…”

No matter what you do, just figure out a way to discuss your occupation in an interesting and unusual manner. Remember, you’re not at a job interview, so don’t hog the conversation and don’t be formal – it’s supposed to be fun and interesting. Get her to talk about herself and listen to what she’s saying.

Even if you’re not attracted to the woman you’re talking with and spot someone more striking a few tables over, don’t keep glancing over at the other woman. You’ll get to her soon enough. Women rarely attend these events by themselves and that gorgeous gal you’ve been eyeing, might turn out to be the friend of the girl you’re ignoring. When they compare notes later, if the beautiful woman thinks you were rude to her friend, even if it was because she was the object of your attention, you’re probably going to be a goner. So focus on the woman you’re with. It’s good practice and good manners.

When you’ve been talking to a woman you do like and you realize that your time is going to be up, smile and say, “Finally – I get to talk to someone else! That was the worst 10 minutes of my life!” Then tell you’re kidding and say, “No, I’ve enjoyed talking to you…you seem pretty cool. We should chat again sometime” and get up and leave.

It’s just that easy. Why not give speed dating a chance and practice your skills with women?
