It’s so important to remember manners at our parties.

How are some quick tips that will help.

People are often a bit nervous when it comes to taking part in speed dating.  It’s too easy to look around the room at your upcoming matches and make a decision as to whether you might like them, even before you’ve spoken. You need to make a good impression and treat people the way you’d like to be treated. Even if you know you don’t fancy someone then remember they still might be a possible friend or useful contact in the future.

1 ) Treat everyone with respect.  Show an interest. Listen and respond, asking questions.

2) Don’t decide to go to the toilet if you don’t fancy someone.  Wait for a break if you have to go. It’s only a few minutes!

3) Smile. Don’t look bored.  This is so important.  If you look happy and display warmth then that will rub off on them too.

4) Communicate effectively. Speak with passion and don’t talk about negative subjects like your ex or complain about everything.

5) Accept they have a right to privacy.  Everyone has things they want to keep to themselves, so they won’t want to answer every question. So don’t get upset if they give you short evasive answers every now and again.

Good luck!
