They say it takes only three minutes to decide whether we will
fall in love, remain friends or never speak again. Researchers
at Ohio University studied 170 new undergraduates arriving. They
found that after three minutes of conversation they were able
to predict how well they would get on with fellow students.
Professor Artemio Ramirez was shocked by the results. "Earlier
research assumed there was a cumulative effect that happens in
the first few days. But we're finding it all happens in minutes." Students
were given either three, six or 10 minutes to talk to each other
before making a prediction as to how they thought the relationship
would develop. Researchers found those who chatted for three
minutes were as successful at predicting the outcome as those
who spent longer together.
The following information is about the 3
minute dating...speed
dating service.
Can I go to more than one event?
There is no limit
on how many events you go to. Most 3min-daters are new to speed
dating so if you don’t meet that perfect person first time
round, then it makes sense to try again. You'll meet another
large group of new potential partners and this time you’ll
be even more relaxed.
People say that finding that special person was not easy until
they came to a 3min-dating event. 3 minute dating is here to
change that by loading the odds in your favour.
Are there any
requirements
to book an event?
You must be single, over 18 and
have an email address.
How do I book online & offline?
In
the 'next 10 events' table on the homepage, hit the go button
to get to the event details that you are interested
in. Then follow the bookings link and you will be guided the
rest of the way to checkout. Alternatively, feel free to use
the 3 minute dating booking hotline.
Speed dating is a new concept in the UK and as such, 3 minute
dating feel that it is important that people have the chance
to book by phone
if they want to. Three minute dating are happy to spend time
with you answering any questions that you may have on speed dating.
Why
do I need to book in advance?
3 minute dating need to ensure that
there are the same numbers of men and women so tickets must be
bought in advance rather than on the door. Many of the events
are also now beginning to sell out a couple of weeks in advance
which is another reason to book early.
Why do you need my email
and phone details?
3 minute dating ask for a telephone
number so that they can contact you in the very unlikely event
that there
is a change to the particular event that you have booked. Your
email address is needed to inform you of a match. In this case,
first
names and email addresses are exchanged.
What happens when I arrive?
You will be greeted by one of the 3 minute dating friendly hosts
and handed a unique number and a score-card. You can then relax
and have a drink while the last people are being checked in.
The host then goes through the way the evening will be run and
answers any last minute questions
Everyone is paired off and you then have 3 minutes to chat with
your first date. A bell signals when it's time to change. If
you like the person you have just met, and want to see them again,
you tick their number on your card. A 'match' happens when they
also tick your number on theirs.
The next date sees the women remain seated while men move on
to the next person. This continues until everyone has met each
other. There is a break in the middle to give you a chance to
catch your breath and perhaps a quick drink from the bar. At
the end of the evening the host collects your card. Most daters
then
linger for a while to chat with friends; both old
and new!
And now for the good part....you just need to hold on until
the following afternoon at which time you will be able to check
your
matches by logging onto the 3 minute dating site.
How long does
an event last?
Plan on being with three minute dating for a maximum
of
2 and
a half
hours. You'll be surprised how quickly it goes!
What type of
people will I meet?
You will meet other professionals
working in a variety of fields who are looking to meet with people
outside of their work or existing circle of friends. You will
be surprised at your first event how much you have in common
with most of the people there.
How old are the other speed-daters?
The age group is generally between mid 20s to late 30s but these
are only guidelines. People outside this range
are of course welcome to attend though the further outside of
the core group you are, the more difficult it might be to get
matches.
How many dates will I get in one evening?
You will usually have between 20 to 25 dates at one of our events.
We think that this figure provides enough potential partners
to choose from without overdoing it. Too many and people start
to tire towards the end of the evening.
Is three minutes long
enough?
Meeting someone for 3 minutes might not seem
like enough time but you'll quickly realise how easy it is to
see if there's a spark there and if this is someone you'd like
to meet again. If there isn't, then no-one looses and it's on
to the next date!
Where are events held?
Three minute dating always
use a very upmarket bar as this is the sort of place that 3min-daters
feel comfortable in while providing the right atmosphere for
speed dating. The event is held in a smart function room or a
sectioned off area.
What do people wear?
The most
important thing is to wear clothes that make you feel comfortable.
Most of the guests come straight from work so, if in doubt, business
attire is always a safe bet. Dress as you would do on a first
date remembering that first impressions do count.
Can I come
by myself?
People come both alone and in groups.
Those that come on their own often comment how quickly they are
made to relax by our friendly hosts.
How much does an event cost?
Three minute dating generally charge about £18 pounds (
subject to change) for the whole evening which most people feel
is excellent value for
having
fun and having a good chance of meeting that someone special.
What do hosts do?
3 minute dating place a lot of emphasis
on providing friendly professional hosts to ensure that you get
the most out
of the evening. For many it’s a new experience so they
want to make sure that that it runs well and that you are able
to
relax and have fun from the minute you arrive at one of our events.
Three minute dating make a point of ensuring that all the guests
are comfortable particularly those that come by themselves.
What is a match?
3min speed-dating is fun and
exciting but the real object of the exercise is to find someone
new who you like and who likes
you. When you meet someone you want to meet again, you tick the
number of your date hoping they do the same to you. If they do
then it becomes a 'match'.
Can I get the details of someone who didn't tick me?
The concept of speed-dating is to let people meet
and, if they like each other, they will be able to meet again
by becoming a match. If there isn’t a match then that suggests
one side doesn't want to take it any further. Three minute dating
respect such wishes and will only therefore exchange details
when there
is
a match.
What information does a match get?
Matched
people will only receive the other persons first name and email
address. Under no circumstances will any other contact information
be released.
