Dating parties? And tips?

I recently read an article on Today show about this match maker lady. She had some very interesting tips for women meeting men. One was to have a dating party. Where you have you male friends, invite their single male friends. They have to invite like 10 single guys to your party. Has anyone ever done this? Also has anyone done the "ex" party thing, where you fix up your ex with one of your friends. Just curious to see if anyone on this board has tried any of these tips and what was the result.


I wish you all a happy 2008!

My friends and I did this kind of thing a year ago.

Our local alternative weekly use to hold singles parties at various venues, e.g. yoga studio, bars, restaurants, etc.

My area holds this fabulous singles night once a year and they have an silent auction to win a date with one of the people who was voted as our area's most eligible singles.


I took my GF visiting from Chicago and the event was a wash. There were so many women there it was crazy, and the supposedly 'most eligible singles' were not all that. My GF and I ended up laughing so hard at how neither of us would have dated the men.


My Gf's pearl of wisdom for the night was at least they 'looked real'.
