I have a friend who recently told me about his awful speed dating experience. The event's format had the men moving and the women seated. A group of women friends attended this speed dating event together, and, as a man left one of the women to go to the next female, the woman who had just experiencedthe speed date would shout comments across the room to her friends, comments that were critical of the guy who she had just speed dated. These comments were audible to everyone present. Not just one woman was shouting her instant evaluations of her speed dates; serveral of them were. My friend is a wonderful, kind guy, and he was so humiliated by this cruelty that he just walked out. Based on my pal's miserable experience, I wouldn't consider attending a speed dating event.

To me it sounds like a lot of repetition. It would be fast paced boredom. Everyone and everything would blend in. I would think that you could count me out on that. Im way too personal. If I find out something interesting Id want to know more. More power to those who like that though.
