Did the speed dating thing, and it was fun, but I don't think anything will come of it... they split everyone into different age ranges (I was in the 25-35 range), and then we each got 8 minutes to talk to the different girls... the guys rotated around while the girls sat still. (Was at a local Italian restaurant). Most of the girls I met were from Queens (about an hour away from me), and a few years older - but they all had good jobs and were dressed tastefully, and a surprising number were decent looking... The one I liked the best was a tall, thin blonde who liked Kaskade and Avicii. (oh my god, bet you all are shocked!)
After the event, you mark on a card who you would like to meet for a 2nd date/friendship/business partner, then you post it to a website and it matches you up. So far, only one girl matched up with me, for "friendship"

The lady who hosts this is gonna start to do the events closer to my house, so I will try again at a later date. It was an enjoyable time, even if nothing really came of it. At least it was something a bit different for me, instead of relying on OKCupid to meet women.
But anyways, I think I need to take a serious look at myself and what I'm doing wrong. Am I too quiet/awkward on first dates? (probably) Am I just not meeting the right people? Am I simply not unattractive?
