Fort Wayne Dynamic Zoom Dating For Singles

Prior to the event, you fill in a quick matching survey — those details are used to connect you with Fort Wayne singles who fit your profile, meaning your rounds are curated and not random. After the final round, mutual match details are distributed — with no one-sided reach-outs ever happening — and you take over from there entirely. **Register via your age group:** - **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Fort%20Wayne&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=18-32&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Fort%20Wayne&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=30-46&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Fort%20Wayne&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=40-58&face_v=4.0) - **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=532.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Fort%20Wayne&groupurlname=club-for-serious-connections-day-trips&ar=55+&face_v=4.0) **⚠️ Your seat is not locked yet:** Rsvping here does not hold your place in the event, so follow the link for your age group, sign up, and complete the personality matching questionnaire — numbers are intentionally limited so register early, and your place is confirmed only once you have done both. --- **This is for you if:** - Daters living in Fort Wayne wanting to escape dating apps that go nowhere and are ready for something that feels natural. - Anyone across Fort Wayne wanting to escape swiping left and right with no results and prefer meeting people in person first. - Daters across Fort Wayne who no longer want endless scrolling and zero real dates and are ready for something genuine instead. - First-timers in the Fort Wayne area wanting to escape endless scrolling and zero real dates and want actual face-to-face conversation. **How it works** 1. **Find your age group** – by using the link for your bracket above, then take the personality survey, as without this your RSVP holds nothing. 2. **Jump on Zoom** – by clicking into the session at the scheduled start, works anywhere with a camera and internet, and a friendly host manages everything once you are on. 3. **Enjoy the rounds** – private video rounds with Fort Wayne area singles in your age range, with a host keeping rounds moving at a comfortable pace, because no round here is random — everyone was selected. 4. **Receive match results** – after the event you will receive any mutual match details, and only confirmed mutual matches receive each other's contact details, and you follow up at your own speed from there. --- ✨ Fort Wayne singles worth meeting are in this event — pick your age group and sign up and we will take care of the matching this time.

The host will see you shortly. 🌸 ✨

Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games

Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
