How to Master Speed Dating: A Guide for Singles looking for Healthy Relationships.
Not Sure About Speed Dating? We’ve Got You.
Speed dating is an exciting way to meet new people and spark potential connections. But let’s be real - what if you don’t like anyone there? Or worse, what if no one seems to like you? :)
We’ve all been there, and those “doom thoughts” can make the idea feel more intimidating than it truly is. The good news? That’s exactly why we created this guide so you can't go wrong.
Our speed dating events are designed to be fun, empowering, and rewarding. But having the right mindset (and a little prep) can make a world of difference!
Here’s What This FREE Guide Covers:
💡 What Speed Dating ACTUALLY Is For: Spoiler alert—it’s not about impressing everyone in the room.
💡 How Mutual Matches Happen: Understanding the dynamics of mutual interest (and what to do if there’s no spark this time).
💡 Handling Privacy & Respect: How we ensure a positive experience, even if it’s not a match right away.
Why Speed Dating Works:
✔️ Genuine Connections: No endless swiping—just authentic, in-the-moment interactions.
✔️ Shared Intentions: Everyone’s here for a reason, making the process more purposeful.
✔️ Structured Simplicity: Time-limited conversations mean no awkward pauses or wasted moments.
This guide will give you the confidence to walk into any speed dating event with genuine intent, the right expectations, and the tools to foster meaningful connections.

Revolutionising the Online Dating
Social Connection Method
At In Real Life Social Connect, the mission is clear: to redefine how people experience meaningful connections through authentic and innovative interactions.
This outcomes report summaries our recent feedback from 18 Australian and 2 overseas participants; aged 27-50, male and female and their experiences of the current dating app landscape.
The feedback indicates that while people use dating apps, there is a high level of dissatisfaction with the current products. Furthermore, the current apps are not necessarily targeting a sizeable market that are seeking authentic relationships based on shared common values and lifestyle factors – such as career orientated professionals that are focused on health and low or no alcohol consumption lifestyles. The sample population interviewed for this research indicated that they would be interested in social events or a platform or that ensures that profiles are authentic and users share common values.
Highlights:
-
IRL’s research reveals a clear demand for more meaningful, value-driven dating experiences.
-
All users expressed frustration with inauthentic photos and bios, stating that profiles do not match that of the person they end up meeting and find frequent discrepancies between online profiles and real life appearances.
-
The apps are effective in facilitating connections, providing opportunities for casual dating and friendships, and offering openness and increased security,
-
User engagement with dating apps varies, with 35% adopting an on-and-off approach due to burnout or frustration, 30% being regular users with higher expectations, 25% using apps infrequently or for specific purposes due to emotional exhaustion, and 10% focusing on specific strategies or premium features to improve their experience.
-
The major challenges with dating apps revolve around authenticity, meaningful connections, and platform limitations. Users experience frustration due to inauthentic profiles, scams, algorithm opacity, and societal pressures (pressure to find a partner, appearance and profile perfection, fear of being left behind, success metrics (likes, # of matches), authenticity vs. trends, sober dating pressure, FOMO & overcoming frequent rejection), which lead to dissatisfaction and frequent profile deletions. Emotional mismatches and cultural or location-based limitations further contribute to these issues. Addressing these concerns is crucial for improving user satisfaction and retention.
-
Despite appreciating the convenience of dating apps, many found the experience repetitive and sought more authentic spaces with innovative features like AI prompts or offline events.
-
Users in smaller towns faced geographical barriers due to limited dating pools.
-
There was a call for greater transparency in app algorithms, with users frustrated by a lack of information about how app algorithms work and how frequently their profiles are being displayed to other users.
-
While a few shared success stories, there remains optimism for new platforms that address these challenges.
-
Several noted the need for astrological compatibility.
-
60% (12 users) valued conversation, personality, and connection over appearance, while 40% (8 users) believed looks and fitness/health played a significant role in compatibility.
-
55% (11 users) pay for dating apps while 45% (9 users) do not pay for dating apps.
-
60% of users that responded (3 users) want help knowing how to date more effectively, whereas 40% of users that responded (2 users) are happy with their approach. The question was not discussed with the other 15 respondents.
-
The feedback found a strong demand for low/no alcohol connections and other suitable personality compatibilities, particularly around profession, fitness, drinking habits, and health goals.
-
Participants provided feedback on several potential features for the app, including video-based interactions to promote authenticity, AI-assisted prompts, and dating advice. Some suggested targeting a niche market of wealthy individuals with exclusivity rules, while others expressed concerns about the user appetite for recording videos and the requirement for more transparency on algorithms. There was strong support for a health-focused dating app and a desire for more no/low alcohol social opportunities. Many participants sought a platform promoting authentic connections and healthy lifestyles, with video profiles preferred over photos. Additional ideas included travel plan integration and career-based matching, with most participants open to reasonable subscription fees if the value was clear.
