My match rate went from being picked by 10% of the speed daters to as high as 50%

Speed Dating Book: The Art of Speed Dating

Quiet frankly, I rarely was picked to match with any of the women I met. I was a loser in Speed Dating. It turns out that not everybody is naturally good at introducing themselves in 6 minutes…  An Excerpt From The Art Of Speed Dating, a how to guide to speed dating written by the staff of Pre-Dating Speed Dating.

W e now know that the most successful people who speed date are great at not expressing themselves, but rather listening well and asking great questions. This is one of the little secrets I learned from Darren, years ago when I was single.

I had sat through at least a dozen speed dating events over the first year of the company. Quiet frankly, I rarely was picked to match with any of the women I met. I was a loser in Speed Dating. I believe it was because I talk too much. Even worse, when I rambled on it was all about me.

Darren told me to come up with one special question and keep my mouth shut!

My job was to ask the women I met this special question as quickly as I could, before they could ask me a serious question. The question was “If you could go on a vacation right now, where would you go?”

I used a technique of pinching my knee to remember to not just talk like my usual ADHD self.

Believe it or not, my match rate went from being picked by 10% of the speed daters to as high as 50%. I believe I even got a date or two.

It turns out that not everybody is naturally good at introducing themselves in 6 minutes, the time for each “speed” date by Pre-Dating Speed Dating. That is why you need to read this book carefully and really think about what you say, how you listen and how you are seen by others in a speed dating event to be as successful as possible.

This process of meeting the love of your life goes way beyond speed dating. I know because it took me a long time to meet the love of my life. She actually asked me my special question on our first date. Start the process now of becoming a better speed dater…
