This is a a group for people who live and work In Long Island and the surrounding area, but who recognize we are in one of the greatest metropolitan areas in the world. It's for people who are creatures of the city, with all its diversity, possibilities, opportunities, and excitement.  The point of this group is as much to allow meeting, forming friendships, and having fellowship with others whose hearts belong in the city, as it is to take trips into the city for all that it offers.  Some events are associated with Weekenddating and others are soc123, while others are not.

Some of the event types we offer are : Speed dating, Museums, bowling, pool, golf, bingo, shows, rock climbing, mingles and more. 


NOTE:  This group is NOT about seduction, wingman or pick up artists.

    DETAILS
    Looking to dive into the Long Island speed dating scene? Imagine meeting up to 10 potential matches in just one evening!

    That’s right, you can experience multiple mini-dates all in one night, giving you the chance to spark a connection with someone special. Our events require proof of age, ensuring everyone is in the same age group, which makes the evening that much better.

    Our track record? Impressive! We’ve seen over 85 engagements, some adorable children, and countless happy couples who met at our events. Here’s how it works: men and women chat for about 5 minutes before the men rotate to the next partner. This keeps the conversation fresh and the energy high!

    After the event, you’ll have the chance to let us know who caught your eye. We’ll tally up the results and send you the details of your matches (both mutual and one-way) the very next day. It’s a great way to reconnect with those you felt a spark with!

    Ready to find love, make friends, and possibly meet your perfect match? Join us at our next Long Island speed dating event. It’s a fun, safe, and efficient way to meet new people. Sign up now and start your journey to finding love and companionship!

    How else is it similar/different from Traditional Speed Dating

    One on One dates:

    We will break participants into pairs of two, just like we do with traditional speed dating. You will get to speak to each dates for a specified amount of time (typically 4-6 minutes). After the specified number of minutes, the guys will rotate to the next date and the process continues.

    Just like with traditional speed dating, at the end of the event you will be able to let us know who you were interested in. We will send you both mutual matches (you picked them and they picked you) as well as one way matches (they picked you but you did not pick them).

    You are given 20 minutes from the end of the event to let us know who you are interested in and will receive the results the same night (usually within one hour) or the next morning. You will not have to wait 24 hours or more to get your results.

    ***

    How many potential dates will be there?

    The minimum number of potential dates will be 5 and the maximum will be about 15. If for any reason there were less than 5 members of the opposite sex in attendance, you would get credit for a future Virtual event.

    ***

    How do I find the Virtual Room?

    After you purchase your ticket, you will get a confirmation appear on your screen along with the zoom link for you to use to log in.
