more about lesbian (LesBiQ) speed dating
HOW ARE MATCHES MADE?
Your matches will be made according to the preferences you indicate for age and gender expression. There will be structured lesbian speed dating as well as unstructured socializing time. This will allow you to meet other women who do not fall within your preferred dating criteria, but might make great friends!
AM I WELCOME IF I AM BISEXUAL, TRANS, NON-BINARY OR POLY?
Yes! Our goal is to attract a diverse group of women of all ages so we can provide a wide variety of people with whom you can meet and interact. We do not inquire about your sexual orientation or your gender identity beyond the requirement that you self-identify as a woman and you have romantic interests in women. We do ask that you are available, whether that means single or poly.
It is up to you to share what you wish to beyond the basic expectation that all women present: 1) self-identify as women; 2) are attracted romantically to women; and 3) identify as single or available.
HOW MANY SPEED DATES WILL I HAVE?
This depends on two variables. One, how open you are to a wide range of ages and gender expression; and two, how open other participants are to a wide range of ages and gender expression.
We will match you with the best ten dates we can. This means, if you indicate interest in a narrow age range, and only one specific gender expression, we will match you with your preferred women first. If there are not ten women who meet this criteria, we will pair you with the next best matches to reach a total of 10 dates.
WHAT IF MY EX OR SOMEONE I DO NOT WISH TO BE PAIRED WITH IS ALSO ATTENDING?
Don’t fret. We understand the desire to avoid awkward pairings. The registration form has a space to indicate who NOT to pair you with under any circumstance.
WHAT HAPPENS IF WE ARE INTERESTED IN SOMEONE?
Each woman will be provided a number. At the end of the event, you will submit your Adventures in Lesbian Speed Dating Date Card. This is where you will indicate if you are interested in further communication with any of the women you met. For each woman that you indicate interest in who has also expressed interest in you, we will provide you one another’s contact information within two days following the event.
WHAT IF I AM INTERESTED IN A FRIENDSHIP WITH HER, BUT NOT ROMANCE?
Your Lesbian Adventures date card gives you the option to indicate your interest in each date. Next to the # of your date, you will indicate one of three options:
- Friendship Only
- Potential for More
- No Interest in either
If you indicate friendship, and she indicates romanceship, we will connect you and indicate your preferences so there is no confusion.
WHAT IF I’M SUPER DUPER SHY?
We’ve got your back. At each table, where the dates occur, we will provide helper cards to give you topics, statements, and questions to assist you while on your four minute dates. You’ve got this, and we’ve got you.
WHAT IF I SIGN UP AND CAN’T MAKE IT?
Your registration is non-refundable. If you wish to sell your seat to another single lesbian, you are welcome to do so. Please inform us if you do, so we can change the name on your registration and barcode.
HOW MUCH DOES THIS COST?
$30. Less than the cost of a single date for most folks. Food and beverages (alcohol as well as non-alcoholic) are available for purchase.

“It was a very fun atmosphere, and I would definitely recommend it.”

“I like the diversity of types of people; specifically, different ages, body sizes, gender expressions, careers and backgrounds.”
“It was a great way to meet single lesbians looking for romance.”
“I loved talking and interacting – on a dating site you only get to see a picture!”

ABOUT Michele O’Mara, LCSW, Ph.D.
Relationships are my thing. Some would say, my obsession. While I only scored an 83.75% on my own “How Lesbian Are You” test, don’t let that fool you. Since returning to school in the ’90s for my MSW, I knew exactly what I wanted to do: help lesbian couples grow love.
I am that person who has built her life around one thing: lesbian relationships and women loving women. For fun, I do things like create online quizzes at asklesbians.com, to learn more about real lesbians. Or I write books. like, “Just Ask: 1,000 Questions to Grow Your Relationship,” to give couples an easy way to communicate. (www.1000question.app) And, now that our boys are young men, my love, and my wife, Kristen, and I are growing lesbian love through Lesbian Couples Retreats and The Lesbian Roadshow throughout the U.S. in awesome destinations where our motto is, “love out loud” with Adventures in Love. You can learn more about those at lesbiancouples.co.

QUEER, BISEXUAL and LESBIAN DATING (no men)
At Lesbian Adventures in Dating (LAID), we are committed to taking the stress and struggle out of lesbian, bisexual and queer women finding one another.
TEN DATES, TWO HOURS, RISK-FREE, REJECTION-FREE, ONLINE DATING FOR LESBIANS
Imagine logging on to your computer and entering the online LesBiQRound Up Room with 20-50 other women-loving-women along with your event host, Michele O’Mara.
Once the first dating round begins, imagine being automatically transported into a private online dating room with your first date. Just the two of you, for 6 minutes of 1:1 time, where you will have the opportunity to chat and get to know her. Before you know it (and 6 minutes goes fast even in the most awkward of situations), you will be magically transported back to the Round Up Room. This will repeat several times with a minimum of 10 different dates.
OPPORTUNITY TO DEVELOP NEW FRIENDSHIPS, TOO
Throughout the event, there are also few breaks where you will be transported to Social Rooms. These are rooms of 5-10 women who are randomly selected and give you the opportunity to chat in a smaller group setting. Because our events draw a large number of women, and you are paired with the top ten women who most closely align with your dating preferences, the Social Rooms provide an opportunity to meet women you may be paired with for a 1:1 date, as well as the possibility of spending additional time with dates you would like to talk with some more.
UPCOMING EVENTS
HOW IS THE DATING LINE-UP CREATED?
Your matches will be made according to the preferences you indicate on your registration. You will be matched with the top 10 women who most closely align with your stated preferences. However, we are not able to guarantee there will be ten women who match your specific age range or gender expression preferences.
AM I WELCOME IF I AM BISEXUAL, TRANS, NON-BINARY OR POLY?
Yes! Our goal is to attract a diverse group of daters of all ages so we can provide a wide variety of people with whom you can meet and interact. We do not inquire about your sexual orientation or your gender identity beyond the requirement that you do not self-identify as male and that you have romantic interests in women. We do ask that you are available, whether that means single or poly.
It is up to you to share what you wish to beyond the basic expectation that participants:
1) do not self-identify as male;
2) are attracted romantically to women; and
3) identify as single or available.
HOW MANY SPEED DATES WILL I HAVE?
We will match you with the best ten dates available. If there are not ten participants who meet your preferred criteria, we will pair you with the best matches possible, to reach a total of 10 dates.
WHAT IF MY EX OR SOMEONE I DO NOT WISH TO BE PAIRED WITH IS ALSO ATTENDING?
Don’t fret. We understand the desire to avoid awkward pairings. The registration form has space to identify up to 8 people you request we NOT pair you with. We will work hard to help you avoid any uncomfortable dates!

WHAT IF I SIGN UP AND CAN'T MAKE IT?
Your registration is non-refundable. If you experience a family emergency or unavoidable obstacle, we will provide you with a credit for a future event. You will still have access to the dating app with your dating lineup, and in the event you would like to take express interest in one of your dates (despite not meeting them), you can do so in the app during the designated dating time. You never know, you may find an unexpected match!
HOW DO WE EXPRESS INTEREST IN EACH OTHER?
You will be provided a link to download our speed dating event app on your smartphone. The app will record your follow-up preferences that you enter during the event.
After each date, you will have the option to check your interest in her according to the following:
❤️ 😊 ❌
potential romance friendship no chemistry
For each woman that you indicate ANY interest in (friendship or more) who has also expressed ANY interest in you (friendship or more), the app will reveal your matches, indicate if the match if for friendship potential or romance potential, and provide you with one another’s email.
WHAT IF I AM INTERESTED IN A FRIENDSHIP WITH HER, BUT NOT ROMANCE?
For each woman that you indicate ANY interest in (friendship or more) who has also expressed ANY interest in you (friendship or more), we will provide you with one another’s contact information. This information will be available on your dating app shortly after the event ends (unless our app is not complete, then it will be 2-3 days because we will crunch the matches by hand).
If you indicate friendship 😊, and she indicates romance potential ❤️, we will still connect you, and indicate your preference as friendship. This provides you the safety to express your attractions without the risk of feeling rejected.
❤️ + ❤️ = ❤️
❤️ + 😁 = 😁
❌ + 😁/❤️ = ❌
WHAT IF I'M SUPER DUPER SHY?
Because the dates are so short (six minutes), there is limited time for conversation. Even our shyest participants have commented on how quickly the dates go! You can prepare for the event by coming up with 2-3 open-ended questions, such as: “Tell me about yourself?” Or, “How do you like to spend your free time?” Or, “How do you feel about forced socializing?” (ha!) You’ve got this, and we’ve got you.
