The other aspect of that is not only is it hard to make a connection that fast, but if you've got another dozen attractive options, why bother stretching that out into multiple dates?

It's lots of window shopping. Maybe we have too many options?

I suppose the problem is that we are more aware of all the options so it's harder to settle. In a village you have 3-4 choices so not settling means getting your favorite out of 4. Now you watch movies and porn with most beautiful and charming people and they are displayed in their perfectly engineered best moment and then you have to go back to not being able to "have" them

Hence apps like "ONCE" where you have only one match per day.
