4 Reasons Why You Should Give Speed Dating A Chance

By Chris Channing

1998 brought about a lot of things, more people using the internet, the end of 1997, and speed dating! The first speed dating event was held in California in 1998 for single persons to meet other singles in their area and age range. You spend a short amount of time with each person, and then move on. If you find someone you like, you can contact them later.

One main thing that keeps speed daters interested is that they don't have to commit. They get the chance to meet one person, have a quick chat, and then carry on. If you find a person you like, then you can explore commitment, but if not, then everything evens out.

Speed dating is about getting to know someone, and fast. Hence, being called speed dating. You don't have to worry about being perfect for the extent of a date. You can just relax, be yourself, and act silly if you want to. You probably wont be stuck with that person for more than 2 or so minutes.

The 3rd reason, is that you actually have an excuse to ask tons of questions at the start of your speed date. In a normal date, you have an hour to several hours, and too many questions at once can freak a person out. With speed dating, its almost a requirement that you ask important questions right off so that you can know if the person is right for you.

The 4th reason on why you should give speeding dating a chance, is because you have nothing to lose. Honestly, it could go two ways; you find someone, or you don't. Either way, it's a great opportunity to meet a lot of people, and have fun. It could be the experience of your lifetime, and you shouldn't pass it up!

Speed dating is a fantastic chance for both men and women to meet others in their age group. There is something for everyone, gay bi and lesbian speed dating is available, as well as speed dating designed specifically for those of a certain religion, or race.
