Portland, Our Dating Scene Needs Your Vote!

Last entry we talked about internet dating... you know the normal internet dating in which you post your picture, wait for people to view it, wink at you or you at them, chat, and then arrange a meeting if you both desire. For some of you, that is or would be scary enough but for those of you Risqué Businessers… I have the perfect thing for you!

CrazyBlindDate.com is the newest craze launched online this past winter in 5 large US cities. On this site, as they say, they "like to keep things simple." That’s the philosophy so on very short notice they can set you up on quick dates with total strangers at public places like bars and coffee shops. BUT here's the thing... remember it's Crazy BLIND Date so you're not allowed to see their picture or even communicate before you go!

This is awesome! For those of you like me who can't even commit to lunch next week let alone to sitting down every night and chatting online for days just to even get to the meeting point with someone (which may be based on reality or not depending on how genuine the person has been) this is just what we need in Portland! No waiting, no wasting time, you just go out immediately.

Check out the site. It's easy to navigate. Simply choose if you are looking for a solo date or a double date. Then when you want to meet up with someone, how much notice you need, if you want to meet in a bar, for coffee, or some other suggested place of your own, and some age and other optional requirements you may have and voila! Your request is sent into Crazy Blind Date Land... oh, and it's completely free.

Sounds fun, right? What could be more risqué than that? And heck if it doesn't work out, you haven't spent 4 nights writing to the person online and telling them all about yourself only find out later there is no physical attraction at all. This certainly can't be riskier than spending the time to shower, primp, drive in town, circle the block eight times to find a parking space and walking into 51 Wharf or the Old Port Tavern on a Saturday night looking to meet your next possible date!

Let's give the Portland dating scene the chance to have an option other than bull riding at the stadium, walking the planks at the Port Hole, or mingling with martinis at Una. So don’t just sit back and do nothing… Go to CrazyBlindDate.com and click on VOTE FOR YOUR CITY and plug in Portland, Maine! The votes will be measured on April 18th so there is no time to spare! Do it today and let Portland go Crazy with Blind dating! And if for no other reason do it because Isabella said so.
