Speed Dating in Blackpool tips

2. Each mini date last for 3 - 5 minutes, which can be a long time if you've run out of things to say. It's a good idea to have a few questions up your sleeve in case you dry up. However don't have a prepared list of questions as it murders the spontaneity of your short date.

3. Don't drink too much. Everyone knows that a couple of drinks make you feel relaxed, the problem is one to many drinks and what you may think sounds cool will sound more like a drunken slur to your date. Few people fancy a Drunk.

4. Food - Be careful what you eat 24 hours before the event. A great Curry is all very nice if your both eating it together, however be advised that most of your short Dates will not appreciate being blown off their seats by your Curry breath.

5, Do not ask for anyone's number or personal details, If they don't and you ask, then it will be embarrassing for you both. If they want to see you again you'll find out from us as you leave the event. Stick to the rules and not only will you have a less stressful evening, but your subsequent dating will be conducted in more relaxed and safe manner. See above for safe Dating tips. 

6. Do not tell lies - Next time you meet that person it's going to be difficult to explain why a NASA Astronaut lives in a 3 Bedroom Semi or how a Top Fashion Model drives around in a 10 year old Ford.

7. Be yourself - You like genuine honest people right! Well so does everyone else. If a Dating in Blackpool dater wants to see you again and you have been 100% genuine with them on the first mini date then the chance of a successful relationship/friendship developing are greatly enhanced.

8. Do not use excessive swearing. The typical type of person that joins Dating in Blackpool is not the type who will appreciate this. Most of us, men and women alike will find this offensive.
