Have you guys or gals ever been to a speed dating event? Like one of those cheesy events where you do musical chairs until you are paired with someone you like? You get like a minute or two to talk, and then you move to the next person. I've never really thought about doing it, because it honestly sounds impractical. Has anyone lucked out at these events and actually met someone? Or was it a bust and a waste of time?

    It’s actually really fun and a great way to hone your ability to start conversations from scratch and charm women. You just have to learn how to be selective because if you talk to 20 ladies and match with 15, taking them all out is gonna be tough and will leave you broke. Write down who your top 3 are and if you match with them, prioritize them and give them the right amount of time and investment.

    They've never really interested me but it seems like a good way to meet a lot of new people - especially if you feel like you're having a hard time getting out there.

    I guess I never thought of it that way. I suppose it would be a good way to get your conversation skills up. I think I'll give it a try one of these days and just go with it, see if it's worth the time.

    Yeah it's a great way to get your mouthpiece right in real time. You'll talk to all different types of ladies with different likes, dislikes, careers, etc and you can see how good you are at building natural conversations and creating interest.
