Okay. That's... an interesting gut reaction. Maybe... listen but not fully?
Speed dating is usually more ... what are your hobbies, do you have pets, what kind of interests do you have, do you have any outstanding arrest warrants, have you ever murdered anyone, would you vote Republican. Less mathematical scenarios. Personal stuff. See if you like them enough to potentially put up with dumb moments.
It's a terrible idea I don't think your guard needs to be all the way up this time though. Enough that you're cautious, careful. Dating can be a minefield, and you might need to slap a bitch, but... maybe try and enjoy yourself? Make friends. Even if it's not dating-friends, just... friends friends.
