Jack & Peggy

“Dear Gail,

Peggy and I really hit it off, and I wanted to thank you. I feel like a kid again.

I also wanted to tell you that I think Speed Dating is the best invention since sliced bread. For people like me, who don't do well just walking up to strangers in bars (or elsewhere), it is a way to meet more people in one night than I might otherwise meet in years. Peggy is a computer geek (like me), likes the same entertainment that I do, and we also share a similar sense of humor and outlook on life.

Thanks again,

Jack”

Update from Peggy

“I know that Jack already e-mailed you a few weeks ago but I wanted to offer my thanks to you also for running such a great service.

I am truly believing I found the "mythical unicorn" in Jack. I was beginning to think that wonderful men (the mythical unicorns) didn't exist, at least for me. You hear about them, some claim to have seen them, but it's still a myth to you and, frankly, a girl's gotta see it with her own eyes. I gave speed dating a shot figuring that if someone was going to schedule a time and plunk down a few dollars to meet someone, maybe they'd actually be looking for something real. I was hopeful, yet guarded. Along comes Jack, with everything I ever hoped for in a man. Kindness, awesome humor, talent, brains, compassion, emotional availability, gentlemanly, considerate, passionate and responsible (and more!), all tied up in an impressive package (topped with an incredible smile) that is easy to get along with and brings real joy to my life. My friends are astounded at how I found this "mythical unicorn" and are spreading the word about how good speed dating really can be. If you didn't bring this service to Long Island, I'd still be searching. Thank you so much for putting this all together, you've changed our lives.
