Online speed
dating.
The offline
dating phenomenon that is speed dating is
the latest online craze taking the dating
world by storm. That’s right, online speed
dating is now available to help you meet
similarly single people looking for love on
the Internet and it couldn’t be any easier.
The underlying principles behind speed
dating are very simple and these principles
remain simple for online speed dating:
First
impressions last.
As with offline
speed dating you and a reasonable sized
group of other people get together in one
place. There has to be an equal number of
men as there are women and you receive
between one and five minutes of time with
each member of the opposite sex.
How it works.
So if there are
twenty men and twenty women you would get
twenty dates in one night. In this short
amount of time you have to make a big and
lasting impression. Trying to come up with
something funny, witty, intelligent and
alluring twenty different times over a night
could be difficult but if you meet someone
you like to have to make it happen. Don’t
forget first impressions really do last
especially with online speed dating.
There are online
speed dating sites out there.
Online speed
dating is very much in its infancy and
searching the Internet for such sites will
usually lead to a long list of companies,
organizations and people that simply arrange
offline speed dating parties but believe me
there are real online speed dating services
available and are well worth a try.
There’s no time
for awkward silences or panicked stuttering
you have to dive right in and make the other
person want to meet you again. Because the
new sites usually offer you another free go
if your first speed dating event wasn’t a
success then people are probably looking for
reasons not to like you instead of reasons
to meet you again. You have to change their
mind.
Create and form
a first impression.
As well as
making a first impression of your own, of
course, you also have to form a first
impression of each of the people you talk
to. 3 minutes isn’t very long so you have to
be confident that you’re making the right
decision. Are first impressions usually the
right ones? You’re about to find out if you
give online speed dating a try.
With no personal
ads or photo profiles it can be quite
difficult to work a person out in this short
a space of time. You have to presume that
they are telling you the truth because there
really is nothing to gain and lots to lose
by lying. Similarly you’ve got plenty to
lose by picking the wrong person or letting
the right person slip away to the next
hopeful in the queue.
