Hello! Have you gone speed dating? I'm curious about it and wonder what it's like. It could be fun, it could be instant rejection, I could have to do some rejecting....??

I've done it twice. The first time, I met someone interesting and we went out a few times. The second time, there was nobody remotely interesting or attractive to me. It's a crap shoot.

The best advice I have is to think of it as fun, something new to do, and great practice for conversation starters and small talk. You never know, you could meet someone great, but don't go in expecting to meet Mr. Wonderful.

AJ, enjoying life with C.

That's cool, yes a good chance to practice small talk with guys and just meet new people, get things moving. I don't expect to meet someone special, I'm going with a friend and I think the most fun of it will be her and I having a laugh about it afterwards!
