Announcing Virtual Speed Dating: The New Way to Connect

Announcing Virtual Speed Dating: The New Way to Connect

Speed Dating. 

For any millennial, it’s a term often associated with being in a somewhat stressful situation or possibly invoking cringe-worthy memories. And even if you were to meet the love of your life through this process, with the way 2020 has been going so far, I think it’s safe to say we won’t be returning to traditional speed dating any time soon.

But what if we could change that? 

With 2020 turning things far more upside down than we imagined, there’s no doubt that the dating scene has also changed significantly this year, but perhaps for the better. While social distancing rules are staying intact, people are taking the time to connect and get to know each other more & more over video calls. 

That’s exactly why Dil Mil is so excited to announce virtual speed dating: you can now meet new people and connect with them instantly in real time, without even having to leave your room. We took the concept of traditional speed dating and reimagined it for the modern generation.



How it works:

  1. Through the app, you’ll have an opportunity to log onto a virtual speed-dating event where you can connect with other users on Dil Mil in real time.
  2. You’ll have a few minutes to privately video chat with a Dil Mil user before our matching algorithm automatically connects you with your next date.
  3. At the end of a Speed Dating session, you’ll be able to discreetly choose who you’d like to keep in touch with, ensuring no awkward conversations (phew). 

You can just focus on being yourself and having a good time, and we’ll take care of the rest. Plus, there are no strings attached here – you won’t have to share your number (or any contact information) or leave your home, and best of all, you can see all the people who you connected with after the session and like or pass on them. If both people like each other, it’ll be a match and you two can continue talking!

Cut out the games, put your best self out there, and get to know people more over a quick video call. Who knows – a short video chat could lead to something long term…get on the waitlist through Dil Mil now. 😉
