Speed-DATING for Mid-Life Singles

Cost: $35-----------Tickets: · Men · Ladies
This particular event is for women-seeking-men & men-seeking-women

Did you know 35-45% of PDX's mid-lifers are single & many are looking for less FaceTime & more face-to-face encounters? There are better options than doomswiping” or heartless hookups, & asking for a date can be made easier! Read on

WHY Try Speed-DATING? Meeting new people isn't always easy. Speed-DATING is like musical chairs for adult singles – a fun, low-pressure way of meeting several singles at once! Learn more

It overcomes several dating concerns:
· Asking for a date can be nerve-wracking!
· Who wants to disturb a stranger–who's to say they're single, let alone interested?
· Are you afraid of approaching someone in a group, or feel invisible at large events?
· Ever been stuck on a date with someone you're not attracted to, or who hijacks the conversation?

WHO Is This For? If you’re a mid-lifer in your 40s–60s in or near the PDX ‘burbs & looking for your "Someone Special" then you’re in the right place.

If:
· Now feels like the time to meet new people & explore a relationship, and
· You’d prefer a purposeful approach, but
· Aren’t sure how to start, how to go from online chats to meeting in-person, or how to get past small talk once you’re face-to-face,
…then it’s time to try something new! More Info
