It’s called HurryDate, and we host tons of “speed-dating” events on a monthly basis at some classy hot-spots, conveying the perfect message in NYC! If you sign up for one of our parties, you will meet a diverse and interesting group of single men (not to mention, have plenty of drink specials to knock off that awkwardness of the four minute conversation!)

I think a lot of people forget that sometimes making new friends means putting yourself out there, just like dating. You know there is now "speed-friending" or something like that. I'd try something like that once.

My last "friend-date" . . he though smoking cocaine (yes, smoking - think they call that freebasing) and watching gay marine porn would be a good idea I guess. Errrr . . . somehow that's not quite what I pictured when he said he was having a "party party".<BR/><BR/>Some days you want to laugh, and some you want to cry and just get some fucking cats or whatever it is single straight guys do.

Like a classic Armani or Chanel suit, you want something that will last a long time. And when you do find that perfect friend (or outfit!) remember to take care of it and to cherish it, because something like that can only be as good as you want it to be!
