Senior Don Juan
I went on a speed dating adventure last night from the 8 minute dating company function in Boston.
It went pretty well from the start. As I was waiting for the event to begin, I made EC with a HB7 at the end of the bar and we hit it off pretty good. I pulled the entire convo big time, I made sure all she did was talk about herself. The only slightly annoying thing was that she laughed at the end of every other sentence. Anyways, after about 10 - 15 mins. of convo, I number-closed and she gave me her cell #. She moved here from Michigan so her cell # still has the Michigan area code. We'll see how that goes. I suggested a coffee date sometime.
The event begun, and the first half consisted of four 8 minute dates with people randomly selected. Here is how the first half went:
1. Girl was a 4 or a 5. Lame. Harvard girl.
2. Girl was a 4 or a 5. Lame. Also a Harvard girl.
3. Girl was a 5 or a 6. Not too interested as she seemed either boring or uninterested.
4. Girl was a 3 or a 4. Horrible.
So, the half time intermission began. I was feeling a little worn down so I went to the bar to get a drink and fresh up for the second half. I was hoping that in the second half things would turn around. There was a raffle and I won a ****ty t-shirt.
So the second half began and here it went:
5. Girl was a 6 to 6.5, but seemed really jaded and cynical.
6. Girl was a 7 to a 7.5, was definetly my favorite type physically (athletic, blonde). Definetly interested.
7. Girl was a 7, interested, but she seemed a little dull.
(At this point, fatigue started to settle in during the seventh date. Asking the same questions, starting small talk, so it was getting harder to concentrate.)
8. Girl was a 6 to a 7. But super-conservative from Wellesly College. She seemed like an elitist.
Anyways, later on that night, I logged into the website and listed the last four girls as people I'd be interested in meeting again. I'll give you guys an update on my leads in the coming days if I hear anything. I also registered for another 8 minute dating event next week.
My conclusion is that this could my niche and one of my main channels to meet women. Being 28yo and working and going to B school, this is a quick and easy way to meet people. Online dating I don't think is my thing because of all the BS you have to cut through just to finally meet someone, and then during the encounter, you may find out the person is a fake.
