What are your thoughts on speed dating?

I think it's a pretty interesting option because you don't need to cold approach and you don't need to have a social circle either. And all women there are there to find a partner.

I am a bit worried that my small talk skills are too bad for it, but in general it sounds cool.

the cry goes up to witness the soullessness of men.

It follows the same patterns as online dating, all the women flock to a few men or consider none of the men good enough for them.

It's a great opportunity. It can hone your skills and sell your charms. If there is no mutual-likey-like in the 5 minutes, there is no need to waste more time so the idea is perfectly sound. Your goal is to close on securing a second meeting for anyone promising before the 5 minutes elapses. You need a strong game plan: 10 relevant questions to ask and 10 points about yourself you wish to highlight. You get better the more you practice. Expect to end the night with a few numbers.

Even if your small talk skills were to be bad it’s a chance to practice them and then you could potentially ask for feedback if you get rejected to learn from the experience

Good thing I am one of those few men, then
