Dating in the New Millennium

Are the nightclubs starting to look all the same? Blind dates and
set-ups an awkward and unproductive waste of time? The following
are some modern, fun, and successful ways of meeting your match
without wasting your evening.
Online Dating
Yeah, yeah, you've been there and done that. You go to a chatroom
and start exchanging keystrokes with a really nice girl you've
just met. Later, you find out that the girl is really a pimply
teenage guy who just wants to mess with people's minds. Even if
your personal experience was not that bad, you've probably heard
enough horror stories to be turned off to online dating. You
should know, however, that there has been an influx of new dating
sites that target the singles crowd. They new or improved sites
are more successful at screening out most of the crazy people and
minors. Providing this level of security and service comes at a
cost. It's worth it. Paying to chat helps to assure the online
dater that she is talking to a real single.
Dinner in the Dark
So chic, so cool, so sloppy! You and a few other singles are led
to a dining area that is in complete darkness. Only the waiters
can see what is happening because they are outfitted with night
vision goggles. You and your date are served a five-course meal,
which-out of necessity - is finger food only. Finally, at dessert
a candle is lit and you are permitted to see what your date looks
like. It's a great way to meet people without worrying about your
appearance, at least until the tiramisu.
Speed Dating
Are you a busy person who simply does not have the time to waste
on pointless dating? Well here's the solution for you. Speed
dating lets you date about a dozen people in less than an hour.
You no longer need fear getting stuck all evening with a real
dork. Approximately a dozen men and a dozen women are seated at a
long table facing each other. The couples seated across from one
another are given anywhere from two to five minutes to chat, get
to know one another and to decide whether to meet on the outside.
When a bell rings, the men stand and shift positions one seat
down, ready to speed-date again. When the time is up and all
twelve couples have dated, interested parties are permitted to
exchange phone numbers and attempt to date out in the real world.
Themed Parties
Themed dating events are the new wave of house party hook-ups.
Themes, such as wine-tasting parties and pet parties not only
give people something to talk about, but they also bring together
groups of people who already have something in common.
The next time a hot lady at a bar gives you her digits, be ready.
When the number turns out to be a local pizza joint, take it in
stride. You have other ways to meet people. Try these new methods
and see if your fun factor doesn't go way up. Also, you just
might meet your match.

Using these things in conjuction will help your cash register to ring.
