I think it sounds like fun. But the general point for many is just trying to convince someone to have sex with you in 15 seconds.

my friend text me "LETS GO SPEED DATING"
so i should really turn this into a "Speed Dating Tips" thread
it sounds fun, but when someone hideous starts talking to you how do you tell them to go away
i would just tell them straight but then i might look "mean" or something

It's a way for losers to meet other losers really quickly.

Not sure where I heard that one.

Hehe, and then you repeatedly ding the bell (if there is one) until someone new comes :p:

I don't think speed dating is that great. I rather take my time and find the one that suits me the best.

hence SPEED dating

why go on three dates when in the same time you can go on TWELVE

hmmm.. i dont think i'm sad and desperate?
infact i'm pretty happy and un-desperate to be honest. so where did you get your conclusion from?

Then why can't you talk to girls in a bar like normal people? Can't think of any other reason why anyone would need to go to these things.

If I was single i'd give it a go, just because it's something different. It's just a bit of fun, could be a bit of a laugh and there is the possibility that you'll meet someone. There's no harm in giving it a try. You only live once.

Ignore people who say that you have to be sad or desperate to give it a go, that's rubbish. Be open minded about it, you don't know what it's going to be like until you try it. I'm sure it's not made for everyone :smile:
