Successful Story for Speed Dating 1
Steve: I was new to the area and had no idea what SpeedDating was when I found it on a local website calendar for Jewish singles. I was looking for a venue to meet new people, not really thinking of finding my match. When I called to register and the concept was explained to me, I couldn’t help but think it would be an incredibly odd evening and didn’t expect much. On the evening of April 13, 2000, I had seven, seven-minute dates.
Jenny: My girlfriend is the Program Director for the local Aish Center. She told me that a new event would be coming and asked me attend she needed help! I had certainly had my fill of blind dates and was not looking forward to attending. I ducked in to the areas first SpeedDating event that night with groceries in my car. I had very low expectations.
Both: Imagine our surprise when we met that night. Dreamy eyed, coy like schoolchildren, star crossed lovers all of that. We became inseparable and Steve proposed after four months. Our wedding is coming up and we can’t thank SpeedDating enough; without that event, we wouldn’t have met! We often recant the story to our friends, encouraging them to go and try it. When we host SpeedDating in our area, we explain to people that though you may be over the blind date scene, this is a terrific way to meet a variety of people in a short space of time. In fact, we have found that each time we host, 80% of the people have never tried it; we recommend you go to many events to increase your odds of meeting someone wonderful!
