Thought I would start a new topic, since we seem to be discussing it in another thread...
I tried it & meet a very sweet guy...I found most were men & women that just wanted a way to meet people like them who don't know where to start, or like me have limited access to age appropriate contenders... It was scary at first but I had alot of fun & would recommend it to you all...Just look at it as something to do on a particular night out...

Don't know about your area, But they may be able to help you.
I found it very secure, & none of your personal info is given out except first name & ph # to people you check yes to.
You spend 8 mins chatting about yourselves & then you move on to the next person. they usually have some kind of mixer after as well if there's someone you want to get to know better or someone maybe not in your age group. you are grouped to ages. you write the persons name on the cards provided & check yes or no. If you both check yes, a contact # is sent usually the next day. & then it's up to you if you want to meet or not.
My fellow & I just meet in a local tea shop, & spent about an hr & a half getting to know each other more & then a cople of weeks later he called me for a real date & we have been together since. Today is our 6 month aniversary & we had a great V-day.
You can't go into it thinking you will find Mr Right... It's a great way to meet other singles & have some fun. I would have gone to another event if it had not worked so well for me. I just expected to have a new experience & maybe just meet some new people. My luck is not typical & I'm told we are the only couple to come out of that event. I was VERY lucky.
Hope this helps!!!
