Lots of New People

A while back we wrote about speed dating. Speed dating is only a little over a decade old but formal events that allow people to meet have a long history. Formal dancing, coming out parties, and various cultural functions allow young men and women to meet in neutral, and often chaperoned, settings. The point is to allow both persons an opportunity to meet as many people as possible to see if romance occurs. The rationale behind today’s speed dating is that love at first sight is possible and that long term relationships can evolve from these events. You can improve upon speed dating with a couple of dating sites as your online cure for lovesickness.

Safety and Comfort

If you are concerned about letting a lot of new people into your life thing of an online cure for lovesickness, an online dating site, like you would speed dating. A comfortable aspect of speed dating is that neither person is compelled to ask, accept, or reject a date at these events. In fact the rules are typically that asking participants cannot ask for names and numbers during the event. If, however, love at first sight occurs participants need to wait, sometimes a day or two to find out if the other person was really interested. This is pretty much the case with online dating. You get to check out lots of people without making any commitments. And you get to start a relationship on a communication level to check out if you might like someone before you make the jump to a real live date. Getting to know him or her might just be easier if you do not have the drama of a first date in public to confuse things! Consider an online dating site, or two, as your online cure for lovesickness and get out there and meet some people!

In speed dating the usual cues that people use to approach someone, or avoid them, such as appearance, height, age, don’t come into play as all participants meet each other. But, if you don’t like someone at a speed dating event you are not stuck with them all evening on a double date! There are online speed dating sites. You can do this from your own home. But, you may never meet the person. If you do you may be disappointed if age, height, or personal attractiveness are all that you are looking for.
