Hey guys
I was supposed to write this post a few weeks ago because that is when I actually went speed dating, but then life got incredibly busy and I was not able to. So here it is.
A few weeks ago my friends and I did the thing I swore I would never do… we went speed dating. I am normally a very quiet person especially when I am in a big group of people, so naturally this was way out of my comfort zone.
When I first arrived there, I felt like I was in a movie, because the set up looked exactly like the speed dating scenes are like in movies, the tables were very organized in rows going all along the room with 2 chairs at each table. The ladies stayed in one spot whilst the guys moved from table to table, and you got 4 minutes with each person. The people that organized the event actually gave us a piece of paper that had sample questions on them in case the nerves took over and we didn’t know what to talk about, but I did not use that. On that same piece of paper, we had to write down the names of people we were interested in and then the next day we were contacted if we had any matches.
The whole experience felt very intense and fast paced because, when you were finished talking to one person, another person would be sitting in front of you before you even get a chance to blink. I enjoyed the experience and I enjoyed going out to Milky Lane with my friends afterward, but I don’t think this is something I would participate in again.
The whole event was truly well organized and all the people I met were very friendly, I just don’t think it was my scene, but I do think it was something I needed to experience to push me out of my comfort zone.
What kind of things put you out of your comfort zone?
Thank you for reading my post, I hope you enjoyed it.
Bye xx
