Speed Dating Mistakes

Speed dating in your area



The following provides the biggest speed dating mistakes to avoid on the night.

Most people who come to my speed dating events tend to have a great time if they choose to be 'up' for a good night. That means putting some effort into dressing up and grooming, but also being relaxed just to have a good time.

I hope these tips help on what not to do:

Don't Smile

If you don't smile, you won't look approachable, so smile and you are more likely to chat with that cutie during the break.

Eating while talking

Nothing worse than talking to someone more interested in the food they are eating.

Tick them too early

I have seen guys tick a date before they start talking believe it or not. Tip is - at least wait until the date is finished.

Self Obsessed

One of the more common complaints will be dating guys or girls who cannot stop talking about themselves.

Speed dating mistakes - flirt clothing to wear

Arrive Drunk

When everyone else arrives sober, you can imagine how this looks.

Getting too personal

Nobody likes to be interrogated within the first ten minutes they meet someone.

The Complainer

Start complaining about everyone and everything and soon people will avoid you like the plague.

No preparation

Speed daters who don't put in any effort to dress can stand out like sore thumbs.
