SAN FRANCISCO, CA - Just when you think you've seen it all, singles groups across the country find new hope for romance via iPhone speed dating."iDating" parties have become so popular in some cities like San Francisco, California, adding multiple nights and still packing in standing room only crowds. "The iPhone makes speed dating more user-friendly, because you're rejecting a photo not a real person." said Niko Atuna who co-hosts her own iDating parties in the downtown San Francisco area for $25 a person.
The iDating events serve beer, wine and cold hors d'oeuvres to keep the singles mingling. After the one-on-one portion of the evening is completed, participants make dating selections individually from the iPhones sequestered in a private area. A personal message is usually sent via iPhone to ask the big question. Participants can either accept or decline a request for a date after the event. Being added as a contact is typically the indicator that a date has been accepted, making the selection process impersonal and totally high tech.
"I've been added as a contact to more iPhones than I can keep track of" said Barry Faig, a speed dating regular; "The ladies love my fresh pimpin' style and my dope ass photo helps too." iDating parties are reaching super-fad status in major metropolitan cities across the U.S. for hipster singles. "It's a part time job for me, I clear over $1,800 dollars a week after expenses." said Atuna, who will be adding her second weekly party starting in September. Daters must own their own iPhone to qualify for participation. The new age of romance has arrived with iDating, hand delivered and sealed with a kiss on an iPhone near you.
