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

Asked by Brooke M - Sat Apr 3 17:10:07 2010 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. A group date. So you and this guy are kind of an item but you'll be going with a bunch of other couples. This is a perfect way of acting normally and letting him decide if he likes you enough to ask you out. And it works the other way also. At the end of the date - if you still like him enough - ask him if he would like to do something "just the two of us" and see what he says.
