How do DateandDash speed dating parties work? (click on picture to see our Speed-Dating party in action on CLTV Metromix Show)
You probably have seen speed dating parties on T.V. or in the movies, and now you are curious about how they work. Well, to satisfy your curiosity, keep on reading. This is how it works. You can choose a party and purchase the tickets online through this website (click here to register). Once you have done that, you are automatically registered, no paper tickets are needed your name will appear on our VIP list for that party. Next, you arrive to the specified location (usually a nice pub/bar) on the specified date for your particular party. All parties have check-in times and start times. We do ask that you arrive a little earlier so you could have extra time to have a drink or two, before the party begins. You will get a sticker with a number on it for yourself and a matchcard that has the numbers for the people you will be dating you will use the matchcard to circle "yes" or "no" next to the people you date. You will spend between 3-8 minutes with each date, then you will rotate in a round robin style so for example- if you start on number 6 you will go to number 7 and so on, There will be about a 15 minute intermission for more drinks and/or to use the restroom. The idea is for everyone to date each other, however the size of the event and time ultimately determine that. After the party has ended, you will have to login to www.dateanddash.com and enter your choices into our automated matching system. A match is if you circled "yes" to them and they circled "yes" to you. To make sure you do not miss your love connection, we ask that everybody enters their matches within 72 hours of the event.

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 – 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. -DateandDash Team
-Patti Feinstein Recently, Art Malov, New York’s dating coach provided dateanddash with an interesting article about how to use the three-step technique to better succeed in finding a soul mate at our speed-dating events. Note that this article is written for men. -Vilius Gavrilenka DateandDash.com Three steps to amazing speed date. Speed dating is a great way to meet new people. You know that everyone is single and women are actually paying to meet you! It sounds like a dream come true. Well, it is, but speed dating does not come without its own potential pitfalls. In this article, I will address some of these pitfalls and discuss how to avoid them. Less blunders equals more matches and dates after each event for you. It stings when you speed date and you feel as if you have connected with a number of women during an event, but then find out a few days later that there are no matches waiting in your mailbo x. When this happens, it's easy to blame every woman that you met for not liking you or come to the rationalization that you didn't like anyone at the event. It's also easy to go into despair and think that no one likes you. I will offer you a much better solution by helping you spot your speed dating mistakes and getting you on track to not only meeting more women at each speed dating event, but also meeting women that you want. I suggest arriving at the speed dating event a few minutes early. This way you'll have enough time to grab a drink and feel more comfortable, instead of arriving a few minutes late and having to scramble to get to the event. #1 Mind set is what matters We tend to spend a lot more time focusing on our clothing when going
on a date, but much less time devoted to focusing on our own mind set.
This is probably the biggest mistake guys make because they are putting
too much emphasis on dressing up and not enough emphasis on thinking
positive and seeing themselves as fun and attractive. Women feel that
if you are confident, then you are attractive. You should be well groomed
because, let's face it, in this day and age, it's practically mandatory.
The next time you are getting ready for a speed date, take five minutes
away from your grooming time and remind yourself that women are at the
event for a reason, and that reason is to meet you: a fun, relaxed and
confident man. To do this, think of some success that you have had in
the past. Remind yourself of how you have faced some challenges and dealt
with them. Get in a state of confidence by listening to music that puts
you in a confident mood, give yourself a pep talk, or do anything that
you normally do to gain your assured personality. Remind yourself that
you are a cool guy who values himself and the women will find you attractive
and will want to know more about you. #2 Don't be too serious. When we don't know somebody, it's our tendency to find out all of the
facts about the other person first. Where they live? Where they work?.
Who their second cousins are? These questions are all good, but don't
begin a conversation with them . In fact, if they don't come up, then
it's even better. Have some fun while you are on a speed date. Talk about
a recent travel or something curious that you've heard on the news. One
of the most underused conversational pieces are current events,
but there is a stigma to talk about these boring events with friends
and people you don't know, so reverse it. Before the event, pick up the
ne wspaper, leaf through it, get some ideas and spot a few things that
you find unusual or amusing. Here are some actual headlines: 'Woman Finds
Unicorn Under Her Bed' or ' Wedding Ring Deflects A Gun Shot, Saves
A Life'. Stay away from serious or political issues. Now you are
ready for a speed date. Speed dating is not synonymous with bore dating.
So, don't take the speed dating activity too seriously because this is
not a job interview. Start with a joke and then you can touch up on other
elements that interest you. Remember, you only have a few minutes to
have a conversation. Becoming boring by asking tedious questions is not
memorable, so have fun in the conversation. #3 Don't try to impress Most men are trying too hard to impress a woman. What they don't know, is that when you try too hard to impress, you come off as needy. When you come off as needy, you are not going to find a match. Remember, she is there for a reason and that reason is you, a fun and interesting guy. Don't do all the talking in the conversation. Let your date ask you some questions in return. Don't brag about your great car or your well paid job, unless it naturally comes up. Removing the need to impress will do amazing things for your meeting and dating life. Arrive at each speed dating event with the attitude that you are there to have fun rather than anticipating the dread of the first date. It will make a world of difference. It's great when a conversation is going so well and you feel that you have a lot to say, and then you hear a signal to move on to meet the next woman. It's great because if you had so much fun and interesting things to talk about, you will want to see each other again. That's a match right there. There is no need to impress.
