Part of me is sad I had to skip speed dating this time, cause it's fun.
But most of me isn't, because the reason I skipped is because I was so successful last time.

Who else is in the same boat? Anyone else meet their boyfriend/girlfriend at speed dating?

[Private to Alec]
So I guess this is kind of like our anniversary, then?

I didn't participate, but it's cool that people do actually find love at speed dating. Maybe Amaar will find someone then

You should give it a shot next time. If nothing else you get to meet some new people.

The truth is, I already kind of liked him, but I never had the guts to go for it until speed dating.

I technically could, but I can't date anyway. Not unless a bunch of guys suddenly converted to Islam.

Oh, so you only date Muslim guys?

Who knew they were so lucky with speed dating. What a weird thing to be lucky with, too.

Wow. That's pretty cool. I don't think I did very well. I think I'd do better if it was a math exam or something

I met my wife at the very first speed dating event in 2014 and our daughter was born in 2015.

Of course, then she got sent back home last year, so it's a downer ending there, but even so.

Things are starting to work out for me, so... there's that, at least.

And I've had good luck with speed dating in general, so it's not like I'm complaining.

Johanna did say some people found their spouses at this thing but I found it hard to believe. Good to see it actually does pay off for some.

Yeah, I'm not the only one it worked for. Plus, even if it doesn't lead to anything long term, it's just fun.

It's good to see. I was questioning the whole five minutes thing, she called me out, I'm glad it works out for some people.

You both make black look really good.

You have no idea how happy this post makes me.

Maybe I should think about doing some kind of speed friending event for people who are coupled up and want to meet new folks.

I'm really grateful to you for setting it up.

Er... as long as it's not like a 'couples seeking couples' thing.

I mean... I'd be down for that, but I'm pretty sure my boyfriend wouldn't be.

But I meant something strictly platonic.
