It’s a BAD DATES party!
Single? Taken? In a polyamorous relationship with a bearded Brunswick hipster?
No matter what your relationship status, I’d love for you to join me for a dance and a drink in the CBD!
WHO WILL BE THERE?
🖤 Me! Ali, known in the media as the ‘The Ultimate Tinder Addict’ or the egg who got BANNED from Tinder or face of the Shattered by Five Simple Words meme. I’ll give you a BDOM badge!
🖤 The girl with the TWO BELLY BUTTONS… Someone buy this superstar a drink!
🖤 Story hero TRAVIS whose PowerPoint presentation, ‘Reasons You Should Date Me’ caught the attention of women across Melbourne.
🖤 YOU. BDOM events attract a super friendly and fun group of people. Don’t be shy to attend – fly solo if you must! I’d love to meet you.
I’ll try and think of some ice breakers so we all get mixing and I’ll probably organise a few platters if you arrive on time.
Yes, the venue is accessible!
Dress smart.
It’s FREE!
