Speeding dating is a popular method of meeting others but has lost its prominence over the last few years. However, this does not mean you should shy away from them. They are a safe, positive environment that helps you with your search. You spend small amounts of time with each person in which you find out a little bit about each other. At the end of the evening, you let the organizers know who would like to see again. If they feel the same way a contact connection will be arranged. These sorts of events differ in length, normally dependent on how many daters there are in attendance, but in general, will last for around two hours (including an intermission).
