I do not facilitate individual introductions or manage interactions. Guests are expected to initiate and navigate conversations on their own. **What to expect for $49.00 USD per person** • Do 5 Practice Dates below. • Each round has a structured theme to support connection (e.g. curiosity, values, attraction, emotional safety) **Safety Disclaimer** All events take place in **public spaces** such as cafés, food courts, malls, and other well-trafficked locations to ensure a safe and comfortable experience for everyone **The 5 Practice Dates** **•** Do You See Me - 1 • Open Mind x Heart - 2 • Accept Us Across All Parallel Universe - 3 • I Want It That Way (Trigger Happy) - 4 • Extreme Love and Desire - 5 **Date 1** – Be a mysterious, emotionally available human. Focus on presence, curiosity, and connection. Let people experience who you are beyond labels (yes, even your job title). Avoid status-driven questions like “What do you do?” or “Where do you live?” — relax, LinkedIn can wait. **Date 2** – Become LinkedIn in human form. Perform status. Interrogate value. Rank and categorize. What do your parents do? What do *you* do for work? Do you own or rent—or are you “figuring it out”? Assess them like an asset, a résumé, a potential merger. Are they a smart investment… or a liability? Play royalty seeking alliance—calculate, compare, judge. Be polished. Be strategic. Be just a little unbearable. **Warning:** Do *not* ask or reveal exact income—we are not filing taxes together (yet). You *may* talk about household financial responsibilities (how you manage expenses, split costs, or approach money in daily life). Notice how ridiculous this feels. **Date 3** – Plot twist: you’re both just humans. Be honest about your experience so far. Take off the entitlement mask (alpha/tough or beta/nice—yes, both are costumes). Show vulnerability, sincerity, and authenticity. Remember: you are equals—no thrones, no rankings. Talk about your deepest fears (fun!) regarding this connection, your future, or your goals. Reflect on your love patterns—your “type,” your habits, your emotional chaos. **Date 4** – Release your inner gremlin (lovingly). Express your shadow self fully—or just be completely yourself, unfiltered, while doing the light dating challenge. Say the thing. (Maybe not *every* thought… but close.) Create space to talk things through and actually resolve something like adults. Ask: • How have I frustrated you? • How have I annoyed you? Practice patience when navigating conflict (yes, even when you’re right… or think you are). **Date 5** – Final boss level. Experience separation… or oneness. Do you choose the path of love… or the path of fear? No pressure. Just your entire relational pattern on the line. **Reflection Questions After Each Date** **After Date 1** Do you feel strong enough chemistry to be curious and interested in getting to know your match more? **After Date 2** Do you feel a strong enough connection to look beyond their façade? **After Date 3** Do you feel more love than friendship and feel ready to look into your own wounds and release triggers? **After Date 4** Do you feel ready to continue releasing and relieving wounds so you can receive love and see love more clearly? **After Date 5** Do you feel in love with your match, and able to give love, grow, and be the best version of yourself together? **Path A: Experience-Focused / Live-in-the-Moment** For singles who prefer to follow a natural flow and enjoy connection as it unfolds — with ease, fun, and presence. No pressure to go deep. Come as you are, enjoy the energy, and follow what feels good to you. You prioritize: • Comfort • Authentic vibes (not the same as "being authentic") • Living in the moment • Letting things unfold organically **Path B: Growth-Oriented / Intention-Driven** For singles who enjoy exploring deeper emotional connection, vulnerability, and conscious love. These challenges allow one to learn love, see love, and to give and receive love. You value: • Personal growth/ Being authentic • Emotional openness • Expanding your capacity to love and receive love • Going beyond comfort zones when it feels right **Recommendation** **• Path A:** Focus on Practice Dates 1–2 for connection, ease, and chemistry exploration. **• Path B:** Explore all 5 Practice Dates if you're excited about deeper connection and relational growth.
