as a teenage girl who turns 18 next monday, and who processes emotion very similarly to the way you do, who has dreamed about a relationship ever since she was little, who was broken up with the morning after her first kiss and thought it was her fault, who was led on for a year - your videos just feel like the warmest hug from an older sister. i sit in bed in melbourne and watch your videos when i need to feel like it will all be okay, and i cry happy tears. your endless love and positivity makes me so happy, because i see it in myself. i just love your content so so much and i hope you know that it is endlessly appreciated. you make me excited to grow up
Speed dating was SUPER fun! One of the first dates I had was plastered by the end of the night. He tried standing up and slipped back onto his seat ✨instant ick✨ Might not find the love of your life, but I PROMISE you’ll have some fun stories to tell
Speed dating is an utter waste of men's time. No self-respecting, high-value man would subject himself to such nonsense, but if you're just looking for Tyrone or Chad, keep speed dating.
@@halfhawkhalfman the fact you're using the phrase "high-value man" shows your value. No one asked for your opinion on it. Let people enjoy life even if you don't have one.
@@Fluff_Noodles Since when does anyone ask before offering an opinion in a RUclips forum, foolish one? Also, I didn't invent the term "high value man" - women in the dating coaching sector did.
@@halfhawkhalfman I'm not saying you invented the term, foolish one. I'm saying the fact that you used it at all is sad. Everyone is allowed to share an opinion in the comment section. It's just that your response seemed irrelevant to the comment that you responded to. They weren't asking for "high-value men" they were just talking about a fun experience and you came in to kill the mood. To be honest I was just in a bad mood when I replied to you last night though so I apologize if my comment felt hostile.
@@Fluff_Noodles My genuine interest here isn't to deliberately spoil the enjoyment of others through negative commentary, but rather to suggest to women that they're very unlikely to find men of quality via speed dating. If they're just looking for a pleasant distraction though, then fine.
i love that you did this not to necessarily find love, but to put yourself out of your comfort zone to learn & grow, especially as someone who struggles with social anxiety. i honestly find that really admirable
I saw one of my friends attending a queer speed dating event in the town she lives in and I really hope something similar eventually happens in the city I live in too because it'd be so exciting to be able to meet other queer women irl! Atm my options are mostly just dating apps, which I'm getting kinda tired of, and the local gay club, which is a fun spot, but I'm not the hugest party girl so the environment can feel a bit overwhelming to me 😅
I admire you for doing this because I could never imagine going to one of these things. I get way too nervous going on one date let alone meeting a whole string of people under a time restraint. My anxiety could never
I think it's especially hard for someone who has a job like you where you aren't going to a place everyday and seeing co-workers. I met my last boyfriend through work and my current one through work as well. I think that's just the easiest way. Also meeting people through friends. I feel like TV and movies make it seem like it's possible to meet a partner through happenstance at a coffee shop or something. Don't know how often that actually happens in real life. Only speaking from experience. Just muh 2 cents lol.
I personally know people who met their now-spouses in the following unexpected ways: 1) On a plane with his young son sitting between them and chatting her ear off 2) Outside a bar 3) At a Toastmasters meeting 4) At a bar (one couple, he was the bartender, another couple, she was the bartender) 5) At a college reunion. So it’s certainly not limited to school, work or dating apps.
As an aromantic person I LOVE these videos!! You're very insightful and it's rlly interesting to see what's going on in this whole thing I've never really got involved in :-)
I actually went to one when they had it at The Strand! It was called "read dating" and had the same issue of selling out of women spots and not enough men, they wound up getting strand employees to fill in the holes, so of course the most alluring guy there was a guy that worked at the strand. They were good with questions too, all literature inspired, one of my favorites was "if you could live in a fictional world, what would it be?" and that got a few conversations started. all participants were given author names which was cute, i think i got the number of the guy that was aldus huxley or something, and texted for a bit, but never went on a date, and one guy was very interested in me but i just wasnt into him. So not too succesful in finding a match, but overall a really fun experience
This was such a cool refreshing take on the methods of dating. Your talk about anxiety, realizing that you can flirt with men in person, and not having to fear rejection based on how you look was comforting and inspiring. I share your social anxiety in that respect and appreciate you sharing your experience moving forward from that. You make me feel like I too can be as confident and comfortable putting myself out there so thank you for doing what you do. Much love 💞
Volunteering at local animal shelters etc can be a lovely way to meet people, as well as help one step out of their own space for a moment and make a tremendous contribution to those in need 💛 double awesomeness 💛
Sometimes I wish we had something in fashion that would signify if we're single and looking to date. I feel that could be very exploitative and could turn dangerous very fast though, sigh. Anyway, loved this video! I was always very curious about speed dating, glad you had fun 💓
@@Foreverxsophia Absolutely! My grandaunt tells me they kind of had something like that in the 50's with ribbons in their hair, but it never really caught on, which is a shame!
I can’t explain how much I love your channel and content. Like your videos just hit every single time. You are so insightful and intentional with the content you put out and I really appreciate it. You have changed my life💗
this was so cool and so entertaining to watch! Ty for conducting this investigation and delivering the full results lol. You've inspired me to try speed dating in NYC!!
I met my boyfriend of a year and a half on Hinge and because we both thought we were going to have a one night stand and not really hit it off I think that allowed us to talk much more openly about what we were looking for without expecting the other person to be that for us so I almost think there was more honesty there than when you don’t want to scare the person away because we didn’t think we’d like each other anyway. And then we ended up falling in love by accident oopsies. So you really never know what’s going to happen
As someone who got a lot of uncomfortable attention as a minor and super uncomfortable from those experiences with normal interactions now, I adore dating apps and spaces like these because there’s consent!!! I’d be so uncomfortable if someone hit on me in a coffee shop, and totally at ease if we matched on an app. I hear what you’re saying about social anxiety and building the confidence to hit on someone outside of those spaces but maybe it’s a cool consent thing? Just some thoughts x
Tried speed dating once, it was fun, but also a bit overwhelming 😂 I think I had like 20 5 minute dates that night. Luckily we got a form at the start to keep track of the dates, because it's so easy to get people mixed up. It was a cool experience, but not sure if it's for me.
I think I’ve got kind of bullshit luck with dating apps. I’ve only used it twice, and both times I’ve found relationships somewhat quickly on them. My first one was abusive I will say, very unfortunate but my second one… my god I adore him. Still together and he’s so good to me and I’m so thrilled. Props to you for speed dating because my social anxiety could NEVER
I can tell you right now it’s the apps that are making you feel bad. You’ll be meeting less people IRL- but the dates that do develop will be significantly better experiences. Even if there’s no chemistry. Quality over quantity.
Just listened to the podcast ep where you talked about this a little!! Excited to watch the vid 🥰 it encouraged me to Google speed dating in Kansas City and it’s a thing here!! I might try it out
Not a poc, but it can be really difficult to give the dating world a chance when you don't believe it will give *you* the chance/you don't typically "qualify" as a desirable option. In that way, the affirmation from another person that they find you physically attractive is small (but incomplete) evidence that you register to them as a dateable/romanceable option.
@@susanwright6168 i mean, there's definitely some sort of fixed mindset that bars people sometimes in the dating world. but i think it's difficult to comment on this if you are white because as a woman of colour, it is very very evident how a lot of woc are not even viewed as romantic options for that reason, whether people will admit it or not (and they usually don't). it doesn't necessarily mean, nor did op say, that we are closing ourselves off romantically but it's simply an observation of the way things are.
Maybe back in the olden days where there were like supervised balls or introductions to society for young people, that was kind of their "thumbs up" space? Obviously it was still super problematic in a lot of ways and definitely an upper class thing, but at least people had a more reasonable chance of being open to their version of dating. Those spaces don't really exist in the same way. Interesting thought.
I’ve been waiting for this one!! So fun loved that you made a video about it! Definitely opens up my mind to speed dating. I love the idea of having a speed dating event at a bookshop or just ones semi themed around personal interests. Because the general pop is not for me tbh 😅
As soon as you said, there was more women than men, I went well the women can just speed date each other and then I remembered straight people exist lol whoops
I usually watch your videos while cleaning and it feels like I’m listening to a friend on the phone💕 Dating series is definitely entertaining and I’m glad you’re stepping out of your comfort zone to meet new people!
ooooh, this makes me want to try one in my area! that part you said at the end about it being a higher up-front investment but with a much quicker payoff really sold me 😩 i want to know if you’re cool NEOW, not in three weeks !
Looooveddd this 🙌 Now I really want to try it! Although I’m not sure if there’s events like that in my city BUT I’ll definitely keep an open eye hehe 💕
It's harder as I get older I don't have time or money to spend on negative connections. I think as a poly person online dating has proved easier as getting that info out there and filtering out people is so much easier in the beginning since you're drastically cutting down your dating pool. We can't really just expect any person on the street to be an option for us. That said meeting people via mutual connections has been my preferred method thus far.
I understand not everyone likes or wants to be on dating apps, but I met my bf of 1+ years so far on Tinder and for me it was the same as if I were dating IRL I went out with several people maybe 5 or more and I really sat back and asked myself like how do i feel around this person, do they ask questions about me, do they show me respect. For me my problem was rushing into things online or IRL so slowing down really helped but again I know this wouldn’t solve everyone’s problems just putting it out there. 🙌🏻
I went to we met IRL first queer speed dating event in nyc a couple months ago and that was my first ever experience w speed dating. I was mostly excited than nervous and after the night ended I had a lot of the same feelings you did about speed dating. It was also a bit overwhelming but like in a fun way (?) lol. I'd def try it again, it was fun and interesting!
I found that big city is for building business, small one for relationships. As soon as I moved from poll of men & went for work in rural area, I met high quality people. A real man.
Oh my god I looked away as you picked up mango and said you were looking for her dad so I thought that you told art that every time you go on a date 😂😂😂
Living vicariously through your speed dating stories. also contemplated whether or not I wanted to post this for about 5 mins since it was sitting at a nice 69 comments prior :P
It’s not a right now thing, dating in NYC has historically been more single woman looking to date men than single men looking to date women. I lived in the city back in the day. I did the speed dating at The Strand once, glad I tried but it was basically forgettable. I also tried speed dating at Comic Con lol. That was an experience.
I red the title of this video but somehow I still thought your first sentence was going to stop after speed lmaooo, anyways better choice than my heads hahah
Based on that video I went speeddating in my city in Germany. It was a fun experience although it wasn’t my people but was a good experience either way!!
been waiting for this video and it did not disappoint as alwaaays! Maddie if you see this comment,I'd be really interested to know what your favourite podcasts are if you have a minute. My favourite is How To Fail with Elizabeth Day - if you've not listened to it I think you'd love it too, lots of deep chats and life experiences.
whenever you upload i drop whatever im doing to make coffee and watch-- it feels like coming home to the older sister i never had and always wanted :,) maybe ironic since im writing my thesis on parasocial relationships rn LOL but i truly love your work and the positivity and love you put out in the world
I’m so annoyed because I want to go to speed dating events so bad but the ones in Ohio or my area SUCKS! They literally don’t have any events for 21+ it’s usually 25+ or for middle age people which is fair but it makes no sense for there to not be a 21+ event or 21-30 range too. 😭
as a 30-year-old, I wouldn't want 21-year-olds mixed with people my age (too much of an age gap imo) so I get why they may do events for 25+, but I understand your frustration, being excluded of things because of your age sucks
this is gonna sound silly but i wish there was speed dating to find friends 😭
this is so real hahaha it's a good idea honestly!!
I need this 😩
where I Iive there are a couple of events like this, theyre called speed-friending I think. Maybe youll find something similar around you :)
Yes!!! I’d go to that
Look up "skip the small talk" they have both speed friending and speed dating events in major cities in the US. I've made 3 friends from such events!

Based on that video I went speeddating in my city in Germany. It was a fun experience although it wasn’t my people but was a good experience either way!!
Omg Maddie dragsbaek and I have the same eye shadow palette!!!!
I think you could put on a badass speed dating event!
been waiting for this video and it did not disappoint as alwaaays! Maddie if you see this comment,I'd be really interested to know what your favourite podcasts are if you have a minute. My favourite is How To Fail with Elizabeth Day - if you've not listened to it I think you'd love it too, lots of deep chats and life experiences.
Hey Maddie, where is your harness from? Your outfit looked outrageous beautiful 💜💫
I met my partner at an outdoor wrestling match! Get weird with it 💖✨
where were those boots from bestieee?? i NEEED
whenever you upload i drop whatever im doing to make coffee and watch-- it feels like coming home to the older sister i never had and always wanted :,) maybe ironic since im writing my thesis on parasocial relationships rn LOL but i truly love your work and the positivity and love you put out in the world
You should run a speed dating event in Brooklyn! I'm sure it's a logistical nightmare, but it seems like there's a market for it.
I’m so annoyed because I want to go to speed dating events so bad but the ones in Ohio or my area SUCKS! They literally don’t have any events for 21+ it’s usually 25+ or for middle age people which is fair but it makes no sense for there to not be a 21+ event or 21-30 range too. 😭
as a 30-year-old, I wouldn't want 21-year-olds mixed with people my age (too much of an age gap imo) so I get why they may do events for 25+, but I understand your frustration, being excluded of things because of your age sucks
I loved the podcast ep about the speeddating event and that video is equally great! 🩷
im literally so freaking excited for this video
U inspire me to be brave lol I can’t even speak to the cashier yet alone do speed dating with multiple people ! U go girl ❤❤
okay as a trans guy ... i still spend that long getting ready. i joke that i'm a girl in my apartment when i'm getting ready for dates lol
so will you see some of them again?? 👀
EXCUSE ME WHAT WAS THAT MAKEUP PALLETTE?🌈👀👀
