About this Event
Queer Quality Dating (QQD) is Baltimore's original speed dating series to match folx of all LGBTQIA2S+ sexualities and gender expressions in Baltimore who value community since March 2024. Once you buy your ticket, complete Maria's match-making questionnaire as part of this dating process. Trust your gut. Put yourself out there! Suggested ages 23-65. Exact address emailed after ticket purchase. Sign up for a waiting list if spots become available. Contact [email protected] with questions if you don't receive your questionnaire within 24 hours. Follow Maria for the next QQD and discounts: https://www.instagram.com/maria__studios/
Below are the ground rules to participate in QQD (read carefully):
1) Any racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, or ableist behavior will not be tolerated and the person will be banned.
2) No refunds y'all. You're welcome to transfer your ticket to the next QQD event 7+ in advance.
3) All daters complete a questionnaire designed by Maria ASAP. Check your spam folder! You will receive email reminders.
4) Please do not come if you are sick or test positive for COVID-19. You will receive your matches over email to connect and set up dates once you're healthy-- or on your own time.
5) Your email will be shared with a virtual match who was unable to attend due to illness. You are encouraged to share your photo and set up a video chat!
6) Bring a mask. We have daters who need their dates to wear masks. Maria will have extra! If you don't want to, Maria will not match you with those who need this accommodation. You may lose out on connecting with someone very special.
7) You will receive a list of at least two suggested matches that fit your criteria the best in your email. If you do not have two matches, you may transfer your ticket to the next QQD event.
8) Be real. Be yourself. Daters are respectful and open-minded. If you're not feeling someone, maybe say "I'm feeling friendship" directly to them so they don't expect to date you.
9) Arrive 15-30 minutes early to sign in and familiarize yourself with your matches. Once dating rounds start, listen to instructions. Based on Maria's pre-matches, find your seat based on a color-coordinated chart. If you're late, you will miss a potential match. Who wants that?!
10) Share your phone number to set up a real date! Have fun! Nervous? We will have a good time!
11) It is not guaranteed that any dates will occur but hope you do go out! Come prepared to make a lot of cool new sexy friends! Ask Maria for advice along the way. ;)
