Why You Should Consider Blind Dating

Looking for some fun? Whatever you do, Don't Click Here!

You may have welcomed online dating with open arms, but you have remained wary of the granddaddy of courtship; the blind date. Some people confuse the two, but with internet dating you can actually end up getting to know quite a bit about someone before you actually meet in person. As opposed to, say, being setup on a blind date by your neighbor who has this absolutely wonder nephew; need I say more?

But as far as actual blind dating goes, it seems that a lot of people are still really against it; they think no one knows themselves as well as they do, so why should anyone else be finding potential matches for them? Well, here are the reasons why:

1. You have no time

Instead of putting it all on yourself to find time for your career, your friends, maybe your kids, taking care of yourself and maybe some kind of dating life, trying putting some of it off on other people! Namely, the dating part.

You know your friends and family are just itching to get their teeth into this one, so let them. Let go of some of that control and have them set you up. Sure, it could be a bad date, but it also could be the start of something wonderful. When all is said and done, it’s just a date.

2. If things work out

you’ll have a super romantic story to tell everyone. Blind dates are pretty far up there on the list of cool “how we met” tales.

3. Friends know us best

Oftentimes our friends will have a better idea of who we should date than we do. This is especially true if we habitually date the same (and wrong) kind of people. This is something that most of us are loath to admit, so why not let your friends in on the decision making? Chances are you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

4. There almost no risk

No matter whom you go out with, a date gone wrong is never fun. Unlike dating a co-worker or that cute gal down the hall, you never, ever have to see a blind date again. All of which can make your Monday morning that much more palatable; Mondays need all the help they can get!

5. Your options multiply

When you allow your friends and family to make blind date suggestions you are increasing your date potential. On your own you cast only a small net, but collectively your net will be much bigger and reach a wider pool of potential dates.
