Blind to have a date?

If I were single I think it would be something I'd find okay but not really something I'll look forward too. I guess some people are in to it more for the suspense and surprise.

Isn't blind date a fun and exciting? "Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get." -Forrest Gump. so why not? as long as it is not a secluded place of meeting. I think I will be okay with it. I am a big girl now, I am sure I can handle myself well. (big girl as in literally) LOL

hi, i still never had a try of this blind date,and they called it blind date because they will date a person that they will never know anything background and personality of that person,maybe its an adventure date for me because its a mystery for me on what persona have this person i will meet.

I was a teenager when my male best friend set me up on a blind date that I ended up turning down because someone told me he was already dating someone else. Well 23 years later we are married, after I found out he wasn't dating and we ended up running into each other it was love at first site.

I have never been on a blind date, and I am not opposed to going on a blind date. There would have to be some stipulations though. I would want to go as a "couple" date and not alone and we would have to meet in a neutral place. The clock to a relationship for me is not ticking. I have my family, so I'm beyond that stage in my life. Now, I'm just seeking friendship, a companion, someone to love and share life with. If I am able to find a really nice guy through a blind date, then "yes" the blind date would have been worth it. I'm in no rush at this stage of my life, so I can take my time, have fun and when the right man comes along, we will both know.

Personally, no. I don't prefer blind dates. But I don't see anything wrong with it. Guess this is just one of the ways people will go for in choosing the person to love. There are many ways of finding love, it depends on what you choose.

I've been on dozens of blind dates. Some are better than others. It's nothing more than a way of meeting a new person. No big deal to have a cup of coffee with a stranger. Who knows what will be.

That's not an easy question to answer. It depends on your date. It would probably be a good idea to know as much as you can about your date.

Hi Shavkat: I think that the emotion of not being completely sure about what to expect from your date it's interesting. Though I've never had a blind date it sounds interesting to me. Actually, chatting with people on the internet is like having a blind date. You start meeting the person and you just know about the feelings. It's not until the moment you first see this person in cam that you know who your date or online friend is. ALVARO

I think blind dates are good for just going out and having some fun. Personally I am not a fan of them. Never did it and never will. I like to talk tot he person or a person and get to know them. And lets face it, we all have our own tastes when it comes to people. Some we like and other we are not in favor of.

I must admit my ignorance , i don't know what is 'blind-dating'? I never had love affairs, my marriage was an arranged marriage, i was married in 1966, am very happy, 7th dec is our marriage anniversary. Thanks for sharing

I've never done a blind date and it looks like I do not want to try it at all. I do not know what I should do if I do not like my blind date. I do not want to ignore him but I also do not want to torture myself with pretending to feel comfortable talking to him. So I prefer not to do a blind date.

I think I already done that before. When I was in college, me and my friend were fond of text mates.Text mates are those strangers who were texting us and finding a partner and we entertain them. We loved it before because of excitement and of course we were choosing the gentleman one. After getting to know each other through exchanging messages then that's the time the guy will ask us out into date to meet personally. Sometimes it was disappointing because the expectation about that guy did not meet our expectations.

i don't think there's something wrong with having a blind date. i too, have not yet experienced having a blind date. but for me I think it's fun. i would be glad to have one.

Many eons ago in my younger age I did actually go on blind dates! It was quite fun, because you never knew what to expect, I had a few which turned out to be disasters, I even had a few who failed to turn up, one even took one look at me and walked off! Ha. I did have one blind date where we got on like a house on fire, we went to the cinema together and they even wanted to hold my hand! On the first date too. Back then when I was younger I was far more adventurous and daring, I certainly wouldn't go on a blind date now.

I don't think so. I have no know someone ahead of time. I would not want to meet someone for the first time, find out they are crazy, and want to move on, but not want to hurt their feelings. I'd feel bad for ruining their night, but at the same time, I would not want to continue on a date with a crazy person.

pesonall I think that blind dates are for those not on thr date. blind dates are set up for other people to come by,

I have never tried having a blind date when I was still single. I actually never thought about it coz I fear that something bad might happen to me if I go out meet a total stranger.

Good or bad I am not into blind dates and never have been..I am a real person and if I met a 7 on the scale and a 3 showed I would not be able to hide my disappointment...and I don't like to hurt people's feeling... so for that reason alone, I will not go for a blind date....LOL

I've never experienced blind dating either. When I was still single, I thought going on a blind date was kind of exciting, I had hoped that my friends would fix a blind date for me hahaha. I know someone who found their other half by blind dating so try it. Just enjoy and don't expect too much.
