What is a "blind date"?
A blind date is a type of social arrangement where two people who do not know each other agree to meet for a date, usually with the help of a mutual friend or a dating service. The purpose of a blind date is to find out if there is any compatibility or attraction between the two people, and possibly start a romantic relationship. A blind date can be exciting or nerve-wracking, depending on how well the two people get along.
