People often have a problem finding other single people to date. Speed dating has become a popular way to meet a large group of other singles also looking for a date. Singles can go online and sign up for this service and then attend a face-to-face dating match-up. The organizers of the group line up tables for two. The women are generally seated first. Once the speed dating begins, the men are seated opposite them.

Couples are allowed about ten minutes to talk before the man moves on to the next table. This gives the couples a chance to get to know a little about each other. If two people hit it off, they can get together after the formal speed session and arrange a second date. This matchmaking service is generally grouped by age or economic status. This allows for better matching between people and makes the service more successful. This service continues to grow in popularity all over the world.
