“Speed Dating” Is Making A Comeback

With more people making the decision to turn their backs on dating apps, there’s been a resurgence of “speed dating” events.

For the uninitiated, “speed dating” events are where a group of singles get together and move from table-to-table to meet with each other in timed five-to-eight-minute “dates.”

Then, a scorecard is tabulated, and people find out who they matched or didn’t match.

If there’s mutual interest, they’re connected with one another, and they can explore the connection further.
