Fastlife speed dating reviews

Fast Life Reviews

I arrived on the singles scene in with an aching heart and a lot to learn. Seemingly overnight, dating apps had shifted from the desperate domain of the overs to the new normal. Every man and his dog were on Tinder — or every man and his sedated tiger, all dumb grins and flexed muscles bulging out of Bintang singlets. Initially hesitant, I got into the swing of it soon enough; window-shopping for boys from the comfort of your couch sure has its benefits, and amongst the beefed-up bodybuilders and BDSM buffs, there seemed to be a few potential suitors. After all, I have a clean record, wide smile and impeccable hygiene. The reality was rife with rejection. I met men who seemed keen but never texted again; men who only wanted sex; men who were rude to waiters red flag ; men who flirted with waiters double red flag. It was perhaps the most profound two words ever uttered to me online: app fatigue. My editor has challenged me to delete the apps and look for love offline.

After two years together, POF has ended its relationship with speed dating and singles event company FastLife.

Mega-companies like Match had introduced live events. Services like HowAboutWe were focused on getting online daters off their computers and into the real world. Location-based apps that linked nearby singles for insta-dates were becoming increasingly popular.

POF Shutters Speed Dating Company 'FastLife'

The majority of my friends are coupled, engaged, married or starting families. So, when my friend, who has also tried the online thing, asked if I would be willing to go speed dating with her, I thought now was as good a time as any to mix it up. We did a little bit of research and saw that events through Fastlife. Plus, if we had a good time, the extra cash could be put towards going to another date night in the future.
