Group dating is a modern pattern for dating where a group of single men and a group of single women organise a night out, with the hope of forming romantic partnerships. It is most popular in Japan where it is called "compa" or "goukon." It has become popular because many Japanese find it difficult to find a partner. Group dating can also be found in many other countries, however, compa is very ritualized and unique. Generally, a single guy and girl who know each other organize the compa in advance, each agreeing to bring 3 or 4 eligible friends. The venue is usually a restaurant, izakaya, or anywhere people can eat, drink and make a bit of noise. In other cultures, group dating is becoming more popular as a safe alternative to single dating (especially blind dating), also helping to ease tension, since both parties will feel more comfortable having the company of their friends. Group dating is often recommended by parenting experts as more age appropriate form of dating for preteens then one on one dating. From Wikipedia under the

From Google News Search: "Group dating" What are some ideas on starting my own play date group? Q. I've been searching for a play date group for my son who is 21 months. I just can't find one that we both enjoy. So i decided to start one of my own with some of my friends. I'm totally clueless on how to get started. All I have so far is meeting at least twice a month (sundays) for outings the kids will enjoy. I'm open for any suggestions any one can give. Thank you in advance.

Q. ok, seems like when i talk to girls and ask them out. They always want to do a group or double date. Sometimes after girls seem to think less of me just because thier friends or friends who was there on the date thought i wasnt cool or good enough for her. Are there girls who still like to have the first date one on one? Alot of girls that i ask out always want to bring thier friends and i feel like i have to not only impress the girl im interested in but also her friends. And why do many girls always want to make the first date a group or double date? Asked by bacdafuxup - Tue Feb 12 20:39:08 2008 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments From Yahoo Answer Search: "Group dating" |
