A blind date is a date where the people involved have not met each other previously. The match could have been arranged by mutual friends, relatives or by a dating system.

Blind dating is considered by psychologists one of the most stressful emotional experiences, mainly due to a great lack of self-confidence from both parties and the inevitable fear of the unknown.

Blind dates are becoming more commonplace following the rise of the Internet, when people who have met in chatrooms, Instant Messaging or forums finally agree to meet in person. Although this type of date may not be considered 'blind' by everyone, since the people have already communicated with each other.
