“Do you believe in miracles, or should we start with coffee?”

Young Catholics gathered for a possibly record-breaking large speed dating event in Columbus, Ohio, on Jan. 4.

About 2,500 students participated in speed dating at SEEK 2026, reflecting both a thirst for genuine connection and a willingness to step outside of comfort zones in pursuit of meaningful relationships.

The event broke the world record for the largest speed dating event based on earlier entries in Guinness World Records.

Candid Dating, a platform co-founded by Taylor O’Brien, led the speed dating event. Candid hosts weekly virtual speed dating for Catholic singles, and SEEK provided a chance to create real connections in person.

“Success can look different for everyone. For some, it’s gaining experience and confidence in talking to others — men or women,” O’Brien said. “For others, it might be building the courage to ask for someone’s number or feeling secure and confident present themselves as a whole person.”

She added that another goal for some could be marriage, reflecting the previous year’s several couples who have since become engaged.

This is horrifying to me.

28 + year old alpha women and upcoming, younger well to-do young men who don't want alpha women.

That's probably most of it.

This is going over my head, the oldest zoomers are turning 28 this year, gen A is still very young, about 15 for the oldest. 

Oh in a second reading i think you meant "alpha" women as in alpha-male?
