I need a ruling........ Would a speed dating event
count as a Date of the Month?
I am slightly obsessed with Groupon and recently saw
a deal for a speed dating event in LA. So I started to wonder if that
could count as a date of the month.
Speed would would be like 8 to 10 mini
dates. Does that add up to the
date of the month?
A friend of mine recently told me that she wanted me
to fail at least one month in the date of the month challenge. It
isn’t out of spite or anything and she said it in a loving way. She just
wants to read about my possible humiliation and cringe with me as I make my way
through the penalties. I am a pretty outgoing person but the consequence for
missing a month go WAY out of my comfort zone.
For those of you that are not familiar with the
consequences I will refresh your memory.
If I fail to go out with
someone in a calendar month I am subject to the penalties, which include:
A bit of social shame from my
supportive friends who are also participating in the Date of the Month.
When out on a group event, my friends
get to pick a man (the target) which I must approach and talk to as well as
fulfill the second challenge of asking him out.
-If the target says “Yes”, I must go on the date.
-If the target says “Yes”, I must go on the date.
3) In the event of the target
saying “No”, my friends get to select a secondary target that I must approach,
talk to, and ask out.
-If the secondary target says “Yes”, I must go on the date.
-If the secondary target says “Yes”, I must go on the date.
4) If the secondary target says “No”, the
punishment is over.
I really hope my friends buy me a pity drink.

Yep, that is way out of my comfort zone. In the event that I fail to find a date
of the month I am sure my friends would survey the surroundings and choose an
acceptable target. I know they are
not going to pick someone who looks like an ass or is obviously unapproachable. At least I hope they don’t. But maybe they would just to watch me
cringe even more. I will have to
remember to not piss them off the week before. I also have the idea of winning pretty deeply engrained in
my head. I do not like to
fail.
So would a speed dating event count for the month so
I don’t have to face the other consequences? The other problem is that the speed-dating event might end
up being worse. Eeks!!!
No, speed dating does not count as your date of the month. It's just a good way to get a date of the month because you are looking at so many potential dates. But you don't actually have a real date with someone on a speed date. You actually have to pick one out and go on a date with him for it to count for the month. :-P
ReplyDeletebut.....but....it is like 10 mini dates. Doesn't 10 mini dates equal one date?
