Find Me Now Love - Blind Date

Blind Date
You may not agree , but it seems to me that blind dates are tall on the list of things that everyone loves to hate . I have just one question – why?
Apparently, there are a numeral of myths about blind dates that are ruining their reputation. If you’re interested in exploding those myths and learning how to make blind dates productive and even enjoyable, this article is for you.
Myth #1: Blind dates are foolish because you can just as well meet someone spontaneously.
Fact: Let’s face it. If you’re working full time, how many opportunities do you've to suddenly meet a potential dating partner? The majority of married couples will tell you: They didn't meet at a club or in college. Someone introduced them. The sooner you accept that a blind date can be the most valuable tool in searching for your soul mate, the sooner your entire outlook on blind dates will take a positive turn – and so will your ability to utilize them.
Myth #2:If you don’t click right away , then you aren’t right for each other. Fact: Although many of us expect to click instantly with the person who is right for us, in reality that doesn’t happen too often . Instant connections are scarce , and for most people they take several meetings to develop. So if you find that you have a many things in common, or some aspects of your date’s personality appeals to you – that’s sufficient to go out on a second date
Myth #3: Your initial impression on a blind date is generally correct . Go with it.
Fact: The area where first impressions count least might just be blind dates. Anyone can be nervous on a first date, or have had an awful day at work. Be honest: Do you show who you actually are interior on that initial , blind date? Well, neither does your date. Instead, see at it as an icebreaker. Don’t make any decisions if they’re based on mere impressions. Just relax and enjoy the evening as much as possible. Don’t let initial impressions get in the way.
Myth #4: If you don’t feel physically attracted very early on, you never will.
Fact: Even though physical attraction is an obvious requisite for marriage, it does not necessarily come instantly. If a man prefers women who are tall, dark and exotic looking, then when he goes out with a petite, blonde, blue-eyed man it will take her another date or two to appreciate her looks no matter how beautiful she is. The thing is that, when you start to like a person for who they are, you discover yourself appreciating their physical appearance, too. Now that we’ve dealt with the myths, we can get down to some practical advice: How to survive and enjoy (!) a blind date – and how to set the stage for date numeral two.
1)  Keep the conversation light. You don't want to reveal your deepest secrets to someone you hardly know and aren't sure if you'll ever see again.
2) Be a good listener. Remember, you want to get to know the person you’re with.
3) If it’s hard for you to make tiny talk , practice beforehand. Not everyone has the gift of gab.
4)Don’t spend more than a many minutes talking about your job.
5) Don’t stretch the date out for too long. There is a limit to how much conversation two people can sustain when they go out for the initial time. The ideal first date should final in-between two and two and a half hours, and should give both of you the opportunity to opposite in a pleasant and relatively quiet atmosphere.
Now that you’ve exploded the myths and gotten some great advice, you can put it to work. Next time you have a blind date, keep all this in mind and see the difference!

How Does Speed Dating Work
Speed dating is one of the freshest dating movements in the United States and United Kingdom and continues to spread quickly to the rest of the universe . It draws so many people because of its exciting, fast and no pressure way to meet other singles. At one event, you will come into contact with a numeral of people and participate in quick one-on-one conversations. This process eliminates the stress of going out, finding someone attractive and working up the courage to break the ice.
There are no long, expensive dinners or blind dates lacking chemistry. The folks at these events are there simply because they are serious about finding the right person to date. Speed dating can vary at each individual event as far as the numeral of participants and the amount of time you're allowed to ‘date’, but the common idea is the same for all of them. You need to discover an upcoming meeting in your area and register in advance. The registration helps the coordinators assure the ratio of men to women attending are the same.
First, an equal group of single men and women gather together at a predestined location. Most of the time the gathering room is filled with ‘tables for two’ and each table is marked with a letter or number . You are then paired up with your initial ‘date’ and normally allowed in-between 3 to 8 minutes to get to inquire each other questions. At the end of this time, you move on to your next ‘date’ and begin again. If you would like to see more of one of your 'dates’, you have a dating card to either check a box or write down a name of the person that you'd like to see again.
Sometimes you can even log onto a web location after the event and enter the names of those you wish to have a second date with. Whenever two individuals ‘match up’ after submitting this information, contact information is provided to both so that a second meeting can be set up. While this process might sound intimidating, most people who have braved one event find that it is not that nefarious and can even be an efficient way of meeting new people . The hoax is to attempt to connect or relate to each other as speedily as possible.
The concept is very easy with speed dating. Showing up with a prepared note of original questions that mean something to you is probably a good idea and can help as an indicator as to whom you might need to see again. You’ve got nothing to loose by registering, preparing some questions and showing up with an open mind. Try to enjoy yourself and have fun with your speed dates!

Find Me Now Love - Do Blind Dates Really Work

Do Blind Dates Really Work
Aside from the amusing stories we hear or see from the entertainment industry, many people often wonder if blind dates really work. Although I don’t have an response that is loaded down with statistics and polls, I offer something different- a common sense point of view. Most of us meet many potential mates through friends at parties, clubs, restaurants and various other places. It seems to be the natural progression of human nature. We are friends with someone because we both have qualities that appeal to the other.
They have other friends for the same exact reason. It seems to be a logical assumption that a ‘friend of a friend’ would be a wise choice to consider dating. The same would apply to a blind date- a ‘friend of a friend’ whom we haven’t met yet through chance. Friends and family are the most likely to attempt the blind date for a single person. Those who know us best always seem to approach the blind date proposal with something like, “You know who would be perfect for you?”
It’s a great start for a single person to find a partner. As distant as what we like and are attracted to in a ally can definitely be found this way. The downside to this process is one that can be the most frustrating. No one can interpret ‘chemistry’ between two folks on any level except for the individuals themselves. Friends or family can make a guess based on who you've dated in the past, but there is no clear definition of what any one of us finds as far as the ultimate attraction. When you walk into a bar or club, you know what is appealing to you.
You are aware of the ‘hottie’ you’ve made eye contact with since the minute you walked in the room. Unfortunately after speaking with her or her , you might discover that initial attraction has dissolved in their poor grammar, immature attitude or cheesy choose up lines. Let’s face it- it’s not as easy as people think to meet your mate or even someone with which you can have a lasting relationship. Online dating is convenient and frequently even fun, but it is time consuming to make sure the person you're connecting with online is honest and up front about who they are and what they need .
You can easily find physical attraction just about anywhere. Finding that physical attraction with a matching personality is the tricky part . To sum up this deliberation- yes, blind dates actually work. I’m in a relationship resulting from a blind date. I chose to hear to friend’s suggestions and go out with some blind dates that offered no physical appeal to me to find the right person, but we could at minimum chat about our common acquaintances and feel relatively secure while we were together. I too knew that they were looking for one thing similar to what I was looking for. But so many other folks have simply been in the right place at the right time to meet their partners. Is one way of meeting people better than another?
Maybe not, but if you want a way to meet where both parties are more likely to be on the same page and a level of comfort can be felt due to mutual acquaintances, blind dates just might work for you.
