HOLY FLYING BANANAS BATMAN: the gunslinger goes speed dating, help needed

[the_gunslinger]

So, on Monday, i went speed dating, which was fun. 24 lads, 24 girls and 3 minutes with each member of the oposite sex. I will post a full field report when i get the chance tomorrow.

So today i got my matches back, not as many as i'd hoped for, but certainly a lot more than i was expecting. Basically, the system works whereby, if you say yes and they say yes, then you get their e mail adress and thats it.

so my question is, now i have the e-mails of a few girls, what do i say when i e mail them, do i wait x many days, do i wait for them to contact me or what?

cheers

what the hell is this speed dating? did you do it online or was it a local set up?

as i've understod speed-dating it's gathering XX nr of females and males and then each party get to spend lets say 3 minutes with eachother talking, fluffing etc... Then you write down yes/no or whatever to show if you would like to know that person better or not. If both say yes then you get contact info.

Send out an email.....

Ive done speed dating with very, very good success.

I send out an email that says pretty much this"

Hey there, I see we both have at least enough interest to want to continue our inital conversation! Im pretty busy this week but, I have some time on (pick a day) Why dont we meet at (pick a place ) for coffee. ... say around 7?

Ive gone out with every one of my matches from speed dating...... I just havent been that interested in dating after the extended conversation!!! lol

Sounds like fun actually.

The first thing you do to Email them is to set up an in person date where you can really get to know them better. Define your relationship by the internet and all you'll be getting is cyber-sex.

So where do you do this speed dating thing? Is it just something that a couple people randomly set up and ask their friends to bring other friends or is this an organized thing that goes on everywhere? Never heard of it...

Speed dating is basically where you get x many guys and x many girls, and you spend 3 minutes talking to each member of the opposite sex.

each person gets a sheet with two columns and a number badge. if you like that person, you tick the yes column next to their corresponding number, if you dont like that person, you tick no. any matches you get are fed through a machine and then your sent the contact details for those you like.

it originally rose to fame with sex and the city, where one of the main characters does it. I found it a great way to meet people and, even if you dont get anywhere, its great experience for talking to chicks in clubs and stuff.

so the e mail im going to send out, which is sort of the whole point of this thread, is going to read along the lines of:

Hey its xxx from the speed dating, I see we got a match! Im pretty busy this week but, I have some time on (pick a day) Why dont we meet at (pick a place ) for coffee. ... say around 7?

brief, to the point a mainly plagerised from dreamer, what do you think?
