In my bachelor days I was set up on one blind date. Yes, I've only had one blind date in my entire life thus far. After that, I vowed never to go on another. Let's just say I don't like to be surprised if the girl turns out to be less than appealing

I haven't tried any of the other forms of dating you mentioned (speed dating, online, etc). Not to gloat but I've never had any problems landing dates when I'm between girlfriends.
