Advantages Of Speed Dating Los Angeles

By Aimee Schwartz


Speed dating refers to a formalized process done by organizations to help people meet a large number of new people and match them in the end. The origin of this practice is attributed to the Jewish culture where it was used by single people to find marriage partners. Some people prefer these events as meeting places compared to others such as bars. Speed dating Los Angeles is therefore gaining popularity among many other countries.

This practice is convenient for single people because everyone participating is out to meet someone and thus nobody can feel like they are really out of place. It saves time as people are placed into different age groups in order to enhance their compatibility; in addition to this, the event is designed in such a way that introductions are not necessary. Unlike many meeting venues, people will have enough time to talk comfortably.

Matching is mostly done after the event and the pressure of rejecting or selecting someone in their presence is greatly reduced. The time limit in the conversations is there to ensure that no one gets stuck with an annoying person for too long. Additionally, a couple that identifies their compatibility earlier on in the event can sit together throughout until the end.

A delayed feedback is to be expected as the process is quite tedious and hectic and the participants need to be patient for a few days after the event. The events are usually randomized to enable the participants meet different types of people that may not be found in bars and other meeting places. This makes the non-verbal cues used in clubs to become unnecessary.

Advance registration is a requisite for both male and female participants. Depending on the organization that is carrying out the event, the participants are rotated to short dates that last from three to eight minutes. To signal the end of each session, the organizer rings a bell or a blows a whistle for another one to start.

At the end of the event, the participants submit their list of the people that they would prefer to give their contact information to. The organizers then forward the contact information to them in case a match occurs. However, the same information cannot be exchanged during the short dates to avoid the possibility of having to reject another participant to their face.

The requirements necessary for such events vary from one organization to another with most setting their target on communities and groups like the LGBT, Christians and the polyamorists. Graduate students are a common group that entail young single people who are out to make life relationships that will last. They mostly are organized in places like the United Kingdom, Canada and the United States.

A certain study shows that most participants select their matches within the first three seconds of meeting indicating that the first impression counts. Furthermore, issues such as religion, lifestyles and previous marriages hardly play a key role as expected. With advancement in technology, this form of dating is also there but has a disadvantage of people not actually meeting.
