New Delhi . What if there was some other way to give love a shot other than swiping hundreds of profiles online. Well, for those who are tired of apps or believe in old-school meet-cutes, speed dating can be a refreshing change to speed-meet a potential match in a physical setting, on a quick date that It’s only a few minutes long. While most singles are no strangers to a range of dating apps, speed dating is still very relevant, and here’s why – while dating may not be so difficult in today’s times, finding a good match certainly is.
Not So Arrange co-founder Priyanka Kooka explains why speed dating is more relevant now than ever, as singles search for their perfect match while skimming through a series of profiles – just in the physical world.
The idea of speed dating is simple enough: Singles will register with the organizer ahead of time, fill out a form about themselves, and answer questions about what they’re looking for. Then in a restaurant or similar setting, an equal number of men or women walk around the table in a circle, introducing themselves and looking for a ‘click’ with the person they are speed-meeting.
A much needed face experience: Sure, one can swipe endlessly on the app but nothing can ever compare to a person’s experience. Only then do you really measure the vibe of the other person as well as your connection. After all, the chemistry really happens in person.
The face-to-face connection that comes with speed dating can be incredibly refreshing.
Your chance to find love at first sight: There is nothing more than the instant attraction that gets people talking, that electric spark that gets your love hormones flowing. If you’re the type looking for a story to tell your grandchildren, speed dating within a moderate and respectable setting has the same amount of unexpected thrill.
Instant and guilt-free: You get a few minutes to see if you feel attached or selfish to a person, if so you have the option to connect with them and explore them, and if so Otherwise, it will be easier to break away from him and talk to someone else.
No Catfishing: Catfishing and online impersonation are more common than we think. With people who aren’t who they are – a spectrum of using outdated images to image filters that amplify physical features. Research also shows that physical characteristics such as height, eye color and body language are easier to detect when meeting in person.
One would agree that there aren’t many options available to singles looking to establish a meaningful relationship and this is what makes speed dating so relevant. Whether you’re tired of the app or just open to exploring new avenues, it can be quite a fun experience, whether or not you actually meet someone.
