Young adult speed dating chicago events

Back in the naughties, when the idea was novel, speed dating events attracted large diverse crowds. Speed dating originated in 1998, and was set up by an American rabbi, as a way for young, single Jewish people to meet one another. You name it, I’ve done it! ‘Elite’ speed dating, silent speed dating, blind speed dating, paper bag speed dating, cycle speed dating, literary speed dating … The list continues.īut no matter the gimmick, it always seems to come down to the same brutal truth. And so for the last 2 years, I’ve attended more speed dating events than I can count.

When you write a dating blog, speed dating is part of the territory.
