easybeingvegan Chicago, IL Post #: 1	I recently read an article on veg speed dating in San Francisco. Would anyone be interested in this in Chicago? Would it need to be all vegans? http://www.sfgate.com...

user 12099973 Chicago, IL Post #: 120	If you do not know, ChicagoVeg offer series events that called "ChicagoVeg Singles". We plan our next event in September. Parag is the lead organizer for these events. I will forward this discussion to him to see if it would be an option to do speed dating event too. If you have some specific suggestions please send him message directly at http://www.chicagoveg... Stay tuned for our upcoming 'salsa for singles' event in September and maybe a speed dating event sometime thereafter.

vadim424 Oak Brook, IL Post #: 296	Christine - Do you think that speed dating will be more attractive than some event like David just mentioned about (http://www.chicagoveg...) where we had a really good mix of the people with a lot of fun interactions? Would you be interested to organize a single's event? - Vadim

CeJae Milwaukee, WI Post #: 5	Great idea, it is EXTREMELY difficult to date as a vegan........I have nothing against non-vegans but it is very refreshing to meet and date a dude who understands what bing a vegan is about. If you need ANY help in planning, I would be happy to plan. Edited by CeJae on Aug 14, 2011 8:12 PM
