One of the most common questions we're asked is "Can I find out who picked me?"This comes after a couple of days after a speed-dating event. A person (let's say Sarah) picks three men. She gets a match, which is great, but she's wondering about some of the guys she didn't pick. She liked Peter and John, just not as much as Tony, Chris and Will. So Sarah e-mails us to ask, can you tell me who pick me?Well, yes, we could. But our answer, up until very recently, is no. Our feeling on th ... [Read full post]

Let's say that the most important and desirable thing at a speed-dating event is that the dates over the table from you are attractive, articulate, interesting, fun and (of course), they think as highly of you as you do of them. Let's assume that this is the most important thing to everyone - after all, the reason we go speed-dating is to meet new people, feel a connection with a few, and enjoy our dating lives.So, that aside. I've had a go at ranking what I think are the five most importan ... [Read full post]
