Two Truths and a Lie Speed Dating (Inaugural):Madison Heights

Buy food and drink.

A new approach to "Speed Dating," broadening our friend circles, and "maybe" connecting with someone.

12 minute rounds. A 2 minute "break" between rounds to allow for "notes" (bring a pen).

Both will share their pre-prepared "Two Truths and a Lie" and have some interaction.

People will be selected from the "waiting list" based on many factors including a mix of ages. And will be moved to "going."

Being added will not be in order of sign up.

Beyond the hosts. 8 men and 8 women. Hosts will not participate.

The person makes three statements about themselves—two true, one false—and other guesses the lie, revealing surprising facts and fostering connection in a fun way (e.g., "I've traveled to 10 countries," "I speak fluent French," "I have a pet snake").

The speaker reveals the lie, often followed by a brief explanation of the truths.

Make Lies Believable: Choose a lie that sounds plausible, not something obviously untrue.

Use Specifics: Incorporate interesting details in your truths (e.g., "I once met a celebrity," "I can play the guitar").

Mix it Up: Vary your statements with experiences, skills, or personal quirks.

Keep it Light: The aim is fun and getting to know each other, so don't get too serious.
