How do DateandDash speed dating parties work? https://www.dateandda…
Why do "I" need speed dating, I am young, attractive, and good looking?
Most people think that it is shallow to attend a speed dating event, that is only because they are not aware of what it really is and the success it brings.
Speed dating has many benefits, for instance, lets say you are 28 you have a good job and you are an all around good catch, then, chances are you are done with the bar scene and are looking for a serious relationship, with speed dating you can go to one three hour event and meet any where from 6 to 20+ other people who are single and in the same boat as you!! Why would you not want to do that?
Let’s also take in to consideration that at the end of the event, sometime usually with in 72 hours you get notified of your matches. That means not only do you not have to face rejection but you also get the contact information of the people who liked you too. No more fooling around on the computer hoping that who you are talking to is really who they say they are, attend a speed dating event and you know exactly what it is you get.
In addition to all that, it really is a fun event, it will give you something to do on a week night.
So in conclusion, you just have to treat it like everything else, give it a shot and see if it is for you, because if you ask someone who has actually been to a speed dating event they would recommend it again.

Speed Dating Do’s and Do Not’s by Patti the America?s Dating Coach :
Do’s:
1. Smile and use the other person’s name.
2. Find something to compliment the person on, don’t lie.
3. Keep topics to pop culture, no politics, ex’s,
4. Ask about the other person using open ended questions, those which cannot be answered with a yes or no.
5. Answer questions succinctly and then give away a small amount about yourself.
6. Use eye contact and open body language. Don’t be afraid to touch.
Do Not’s:
1. Size them up, what they do for a living, etc.
2. Bad mouth other daters.
3. No crossing of the arms.
Great Questions:
How do you feel about dancing with the stars? Who is your favorite?
What was the most fun thing you did this summer?
I understand that Chicago is haunted, what do you think?
What is your favorite place in Chicago and why?
Where is the most interesting place you’ve been to?
What is your favorite movie?
Do you believe in ghosts? Tantric Sex? New Age?
What’s the strangest thing about you?
Have you ever taken an IQ test? What was it like?
Feel free to be very silly. The idea is to have fun with your 5-8 minutes, not to size the person up, that’s for later.
