CONS of speed dating
|
- You get to determine for yourself in real life once you meet at the event location if someone is a good fit for you based on the conversation you are having. Nothing beats evaluating in person.
|
- You do not know who may be showing up. Because of this, if you are not physically attracted to any of the people, it may feel like a waste of time to you.
|
- There are usually 9 to 12 men and women, bringing the number of people attending anywhere from 18 to 24 people. At a full event of 12 people at a Edmonton speed dating event (Edmontonspeeddating.com), even if one person decides not to show, you still get to meet the remaining 11.
|
|
- Speed dating is fun; you get to dress and look your best and meet people to have great conversations with.
|
|
- You get to say no to someone, and it will not be awkward. With how edmontonspeeddating.com events work, you get to write yes or no on a dating card and what you write is only known to you. If it is a yes for both and the other person, your contact information is released to each other after the event. If it is a no, they do not know until after the event the next day and they do not get your information.
|
|
- Not all speed dating companies do this but at a Edmontonspeeddating.com event, you get complimentary hearty, warm appetizers which are served halfway through the event. Talking to a lot of people can take a lot of energy. Sometimes people may not have eaten before attending. As a result, the appetizers can be a good way of re-energizing them.
|
|
- Speed dating is efficient as you get to meet a lot of potential matches in one place at a time. If you are a busy person, this is an extremely efficient way to meet people.
|
|
- Besides meeting potential partners, you can also meet friends. We find a lot of females making friends with other females and the same for males.
