### Looking for something more real than dating apps? Meet someone you actually click with. No apps. No Swiping! NOTE: THIS IS A TICKETED EVENT. LINK TO BUY BELOW 👇 . RSVP ON MEETUP DOESN’T GUARANTEE YOUR SPOT. This is a curated, in-person dating experience for singles who want **genuine connection**, not endless swiping or forced small talk. You’ll meet a small number of people through **intentional, personality-based matching**, so the conversations feel natural and the chemistry has room to build. This is not speed dating. This is not a loud mixer. Unlike speed dating, this experience isn’t about racing through conversations or meeting as many people as possible. It’s about meeting the *right* people, with enough time and structure for genuine connection to unfold. ### **How it works** 1. **Before the event** You’ll complete a short personality quiz (5–7 minutes). 2. **At the event** You’ll have a series of guided one-on-one conversations with thoughtfully matched men/women in a comfortable, hosted setting. 3. **After the event** You’ll privately submit your matches. Mutual matches receive each other’s contact details so you can take it forward naturally. **Spots are limited** to keep matches intentional.
