Speed Dating In Birmingham

By: Michiel Van Kets Home | News-and-Society | Dating


It can be so difficult to meet fun and interesting men, if you do happen to stumble across one then they are very likely to be gay or married! For the opportunity to go to a gathering where there are more than a few members of the opposite sex then you should consider speed dating, with half the people attending of the male species †that can number anywhere between 10 and 20 potential dates †you will be in for a great night out.

At a speed dating event there can be anything from 10 to 25 people at one time. The room is set up with small tables and generally the females remain sitting whilst every 3 minutes or so a bell sounds and the males move around the room to the next table. During these few minutes you have the chance to ask your partner questions about themselves and they can ask you some, then if you think you would like to see them again you make a note of their name on your form.

Once the dating part of the evening is over hand your form over to the organisers and it is their job to let everyone know who stated an interest in them and pass on the contact information. It's then up to you whether you make the next move. You might find you have more than a few people to line up dates with, if that's the case then lucky you!

Some are dubious about this type of dating seeing it as an excuse for one night stands or that everyone is there out of desperation. However, there are lots of success stories told from people who have met through these kinds of events and have found a regular partner, moved in together and even ended up married!

Most people attending the event are very likely to be just like you, fed up going to crowded and noisy bars where everyone's either too young, too old or too drunk. At least at an organised affair you can be sure that the people are actually single and not married or already have a partner. Some people might have just broken up with an ex whilst others have been on their own for years, everyone has their own reasons for attending and being open-minded will give you a positive experience.

Finding someone to go out with isn't easy to start with but if your job entails you working shifts or odd hours then it's even more difficult. Speed dating isn't always about meeting someone with the intention of a relationship it can also be about getting out and having a social life. Events are held at various types of locations and you might leave at the end of the night with no contact numbers or with 5!

Speed dating in Birmingham events can cost you anything from 5 to 25 depending on the location and many have said it is the best money they have ever spent. Venues are chosen for their sense of style, dcor and atmosphere with the majority situated in the city centre for convenience and accessibility. The host will be there to welcome you on arrival and the environment is laid back and comfortable. Feel free to bring a friend along if you're nervous about coming alone or just turn up by yourself, you'll soon be talking away to someone!

Take a look online and you'll find all kinds of people there wanting to tell you about their successful dating stories. Many of them tell how from the first date they were inseperable, how they knew from first sight this was the person for them, how they fell head over heels in love, and how they are now planning their wedding. There are events orgainsed all over the country and in every major city so you don't have to go far to join in the fun.
