Have you hit rock bottom in your love life? Or maybe you just want to get out and have more fun? Does your love life need some Nectar? Wouldn’t you like to have more dates with real people WITHOUT having to give up too much of your precious time? Well that’s what we are here for, read on!
Your odds of making an actual connection are better with speed dating
According to the New York Times, participants in speed dating experience an average of 2 in 10 or 3 in 10 matches. Online dating participants only find a compatible match with 1 in 100 or fewer of the profiles they study.
Speed dating gives you a healthier ‘face to face’ time, according to science
As reported by the BBC in the Science of Love, it only takes between 90 seconds to 4 minutes of face-to-face interaction to determine attraction, which gives speed dating an advantage over online dating. Online tempts you to make a selection in seconds, at Nectar, short speed dates are around 8 minutes.
Speed dating is a short but fun night out, unlike dating apps that can bring out the worst in you
US research has found that singles that suffer from loneliness and social anxiety are more likely to start using dating apps in an addictive manner. Some people who underwent this research said they were missing or falling behind on study or work because of compulsive addiction to these apps.
Dating apps can really, really drain your precious time
At around two and a half hours, our speed dating events are short – but we never rush you. Once again, US research in 2017 found that many millennials (the 18 to 30 group) can spend up to twenty hours a week on dating apps! Question: Wouldn’t you prefer to be doing something better with your time?
Our events are fun, but apps can make you seriously unhappy!
Research shows that there is a direct link between single people’s time spent on dating apps and their overall happiness. The more you swipe, chances are from the data from all this US research, that the less happy and satisfied you will feel in life – what a romance killer! We believe that your love life deserves way better than that!
