I recently posted about organizing a small friendship circle in Berlin, and I was surprised by how many people related to the idea of wanting more intentional real-life connection.

It made me think about dating too. A lot of people seem tired of apps, but many offline singles events still feel large, random, or intimidating.

Would a smaller curated dinner format be interesting in Berlin?

For example: 5 women and 5 men, similar life stage and relationship intention, relaxed dinner, no speed dating, no pressure, and contact details only shared afterwards if there is mutual interest.

I’m just curious if this would feel appealing, awkward, unnecessary, or useful for singles here.

I’m testing a small friendship circle idea for women in Berlin: 5–6 women meeting 3–4 times over a few weeks for low-pressure activities like coffee, walks, brunch, or trying new places.

The goal is to make it easier to build real friendships, not just one-off plans.

Would something like this be useful?

EDIT

Because I do not know how to pin a comment at the top of the thread, here is the form: https://tally.so/r/2EboNg
This is the only way to create organized and well curated small circles.

I really want to emphasize the importance of being intentional. Nothing works when it’s done superficially, and we live in a world where we need less superficiality and more genuine human interaction. So, if deep down you’re not ready to commit to building strong social connections, don’t fill out the form.
