Top Tips For Date Supper Club Events
Why Date Supper Club?
At a bar, you don’t know who is single and it’s not always easy to strike up a conversation with a stranger. With Date Supper Club, there’s a lot less disappointment and false advertising than the online dating scene, as you get to check out the merchandise up close and in-person.
Chemistry is instant– it’s either there or it’s not. Date Supper Club gives you the chance to assess having a connection with someone without committing to the time and expense of a full-on date. Plus, you can meet anywhere from 15 -20 singles in a night. That’s more “dates” than the majority of people go on in a year.
What To Expect:
Most Date Supper Clubs takes take place at restaurants. Upon arriving you will check in with your event host and receive a name tag, dating pamphlet and pencil. Next, you will be seated at a numbered table with your first “dates” of the night. Once the official start bell rings, you will have approximately 30 minutes to get to know each other. The dating pamphlets and pencils are to takes notes on your dates so you can remember who’s who after the event.
After the first course of the meal, a bell will sound signaling the end of the date. At this time, the women will usually remain seated and the men will rotate to the next table. The event will end once everyone has met. You’ll either select your matches online at home after the event, or you’ll turn your pamphlets into your host and they’ll do the matching for you, emailing you the contact information of any interested suitors within 2-3 days after the event.
Survival In The Dating Jungle:
1. Slow Burn
“Dates” can range anywhere from 30 minutes (the length of a course a meal), with several members of the opposite sex. Our events guarantees a numbers of dates per sitting, and then more for the next course and so on. Can you handle it?
2. Increase Your Odds
We all have relationship “deal-breakers,” and those do not make us shallow. We’re just discerning singles that know what we want. By registering to attend a themed event (i.e. tall singles, democratic or fitness singles) you will increase the odds of hitting it off with someone.
3. Be Open
There may be an event where you are not attracted to anyone in attendance. You may even come to that realization before the event begins. If that’s the case, don’t get negative or shut yourself off to the possibility of meeting someone. So maybe you don’t meet your next boyfriend or girlfriend, but you could meet person that will be responsible for later introducing you to “the one.” Don’t close yourself off to the possibilities.
4. Sweet Breathe
Always have gum or mints on hand. You’re going to be seated within close proximity of 30-40 “dates” and talking a mile a minute. You definitely don’t want to be without gum or mints in the after drinks section of the evening after a garlic-ladened meal.
5. Don’t Forget To Listen
It’s very easy to be long-winded and want to tell the person everything about yourself to impress them. However, keep in mind you have a very short amount of time, so even if you manage to miraculously get your whole life story out by the course, you could end up not knowing anything about your dates. It should really be an exchange of information, give and take.
6. Do You Give The Digits?
Do NOT ask for someone else’s digits or business card at the event, nor should you feel obligated to give your digits out if asked. Date SupperClub is designed to be a no-pressure environment. If you want someone to know you like them during an event, let them buy you a drink and talk with them more during the after supper drinks and definitely select them as a “match” post-event.
7. Perfect Strangers
Focus on the opposite sex. Don’t make comments and/or assessments with your new found allies that may sway or distort your own views. You are not there to hit it off with new friends sitting on either side of you.
8. Keep It Real
Don’t write someone as a “match” post-event if you have no intention of seeing them again. Sometimes people feel obligated to check someone off as a “match” because they may have seemed like a nice person, however, that is not what thisis about. Date Supper Club is designed to help you find someone you want to date.
9. Time For A Break?
If you find yourself talking to someone that you would rather not, take a bathroom break then come back and start a conversation with ith the hot guy or girl seated next to him or her.
10. Don’t Date The Mate
If you get the sense that someone came with friends, it might be a good idea to confirm this notion as you may end up checking two men as a “match” that are friends and dating them both could be problematic.
