Quiz Night – Dating Night

April 18, 2009 · Posted in Events · 2 Comments 

I recently went on a single’s quiz night.  It was such a good way to meet other singles.  There were 8 teams with 4 people on each: 2 women, 2 men.  And at the end of each round, while the scores were totted up, you got time to chat with the other people on the team, before the fellas were moved on to the next team.  So all the men got introduced to all the women, but without much in the way of pressure – unless you’re ultra competitive at quizzes of course!

An interesting upside for me was that the men were shifted around together, so I got to know a fellow fella which turned into a bit of a double act.

Much better than speed-dating though.  If you don’t want to make conversation with someone, then you don’t really have to, there’s always someone else to chat to.  And much better than parties, because we all know how painfully awkward it can be going up to strangers without appearing sleazy, or saying really cheezy one-liners.

Anything come of it?  Maybe…. ;-)
