As the weather becomes colder this holiday season, sometimes the best date is staying in and making a few drinks to get the party started. Serving these cocktails for the cold will be sure to impress the crowd on your double date.
Going out for food is a pretty standard date idea. That is why we think it is important to share some twists on the classic dinner date and make it more fun! After all, DuoDating is all about making the ordinary extraordinary. Off the Grid is ”a roaming mobile food extravaganza“. Interesting concept, right? You get delicious food, as well as music and crafts in a unique, energetic market type setting. All of your favorite food venders are in one place and you can pick and choose from a variety of food trucks to put together an exciting meal to share. It is truly a one-of-a kind market. So take your Duo and Dates and try this mobile food show for dinner instead of the same old restaurant. Locations include San Mateo, North Berkeley, UN Plaza, Upper Haight, Fort Mason and more.
The DuoDater team would like to give TWO thumbs up to a kindred spirit: Ignighter.com. Ignighter has been helping make online dating social around the world, opening the door for sites like DuoDater to find our niche in the movement of young, adventurous singles turning to the web as a fun and highly effective frontier for discovering your city and exploring new relationships through dates. You could even say that Ignighter group dating is like a Wingman, which makes DuoDater obligated (as you should all know by now) to show them off in their best light. But not a false one! While Wedding Crashers is a funny movie, in real life those dudes would be creeps. So this is our truthful, humble homage.
We feel that Ignighter is playing an important role in setting the trend foryoung people to expand their social boundaries by using the vast and efficient online medium. It’s a shock when you leave school and find yourself without the extracurricular structure and social institutions embedded in the foundation of your educational establishment. Suddenly it takes work, effort and commitment just to see the friends that before you saw in class, at the library, and wandering in and out of your room at their leisure.
No longer are courses, intramural teams and clubs forcing you to meet new people who share a common interest or goal. Nope. Your social life is in your hands and your love life could take you or find you anywhere … and that’s scary. But it’s also REALLY exciting! Ignighter group dating says, hey, we may be out of college but we aren’t middle aged, and we want the thrill of meeting new people with the laid back attitude of a social event. Because we want online dating to be real life dating, not match making. You wouldn’t let your parents, your friends or anyone tell you who to date … so why an algorithm? And if we learned anything in high school science (did we?) it’s that nothing much happens in a vacuum … so add some forces (a super endearing nickname for your friends) to the mix and make some chemistry!
DuoDater gives a double tip of our hat to Ignighter for pioneering the young adult social dating future. We like to think that their users will find a new, unique and rewarding experience using our Double Date technique, allowing conversation to be more personal, the environment more intimate, and the dates easier to plan. So next time you meet somebody awesome on an Ignighter group date, ask him if he has aDuoDater account. Tell her you’ve got great Duo partners that would be perfect for her friends. Take the next step.
Props to Ignighter. Toast to the future.
