Speed dating is an event where a group of single people gathers at a venue like a café. In a heterosexual setting, the women stay put at their table and the men take turns shifting from one table to another, and meeting and talking to each woman. But they only get 3-8 minutes to converse with one person. Toward the end, everyone writes down the names of the people they felt connected to and the organizers share their contact details based on mutual interest for further meetings.
