r/DCEvents

Me and my friend went to a speed dating event and pretended like we didn't know each other. When we crossed tables I checked yes on him and he checked yes on me. We wanted to see if some of these organizations are doing this to get people to come back.

Tell me how when we got our results back via email we didn't match lol. Not saying every company does this but it's what I suspected was going on with some of these. For the high ticket price you pay (without a free drink mind you) you think this kind of stuff wouldn't happen.

Have a news channel currently working on a story on this so feel free to tell me any strange vibes you have had.
