Speed Dating in Barcelona

In a TV ad for a famous alcoholic beverage, a beautiful brunette (or a muscular gentleman in another version) stares at the camera while whispering, “ I won’t tell you now how I got this scar, or what I was doing for several years in Africa, or what serenades I like to hear… You’ll have to wait for dessert.” Ability to arouse curiosity within seconds in the person you would like to seduce is the main skill needed to succeed in the ultra-fast world of dating known as speed dating.

The phenomenon of “speed dating” was born in the United States in the late nineties, thanks to an unlikely inventor: a rabbi called Yaakov Deyo! Looking for a way to promote relations between Jewish singles, this Rabbi matchmaker began to organize meetings out of which new partnerships could easily arise.

The operation of these events is simple: in a bar with quiet music and a chatty, relaxed atmosphere, a few women are seated at adjacent tables, and an equal number of men sit down, in turn, in front of each one of them. Each “date” lasts a few minutes, usually six or seven, during which it is forbidden to exchange personal data. In the end, each participant is given a questionnaire where they evaluate the candidates, and write who they would like to get to know better… Event organizers are responsible for matching up those who have chosen each other in the questionnaires.

In Barcelona there are several companies that organize of “speed dating” meetings, some of the most popular are 7citas7, DateClub or Cita2. Soon we will talk about the peculiarities of their system and how to stack the game for the best chance of success, so that you can rent apartments in Barcelona and go to one of these ultra fast events.
