Speed dating, as the name suggests, is a fast, organized dating scheme, set up for the purposes of making new friends or finding that ideal romantic partner. Speed dating usually occurs as a party, where a selection of men and women, usually around 30, meet and chat for about 8 minutes before they are rotated to the next person. Once all potential partners have met one another, they submit a list of the people they'd like to see again. The organizers then check for matches and those who have chosen each other are put into contact.
