Modern Dating Concepts : A la Mode or just Mad?

Online dating. Singles enter their profiles on a website and interested parties make contact by email. Choose from a huge selection of sites with the most specialized clients and features to suit your lifestyle.

Speed dating. You are handed score cards and paired off to get to know your partner in a limited time frame. A few minutes later you move unto the next prospect – from 20 to 40 in one evening! Tick off the maybes, the yes’s and the "hell, NO’s"...

Dinner in the dark. The idea is to loosen inhibitions. You meet in a bar lit by candlelight and are then taken to a dark dining room.

Text Dating. Join a text chat room, and chat someone up by text. See where it takes you.

Dating Bingo. Popular with students, you are given a numbered ticket, and a prize is given to the first couple to find their matching numbers.

The Quiet Party. No talking is allowed. You are given a pen and paper to communicate with people who catch your eye.
