Blind Date

Blind Date is a type of marriage custom that has a long history in China. It was also called Family Match or Mutual Visit in the old days. The matchmaker contacted and arranged for parents of both sides to meet each other and discuss marriage related things after personal information about both sides had been exchanged in the marriage discussion period. In modern times, “Blind Date” has developed into the process of men and women meeting for the process of dating, through the recommendation of their mutual friends, for the purpose of falling in love or getting married; so as to understand if they are truly suitable for each other. Alternately, some men and women also go on blind dates through methods such as Internet dating websites and date corners, etc.
