Here's a rational approach that may be appreciated here :) Make a concious decision to try and settle down with one of the first 6 girls you date. Here's the rules: 1) don't settle for the first one you date. 2) the next one you date that is better than the first one you dated is the one you settle for. Why? Do the math. Let's label them 123456. If you date 1 first, you have 1 in 5 chance of ending up with any of the others (1 in 30 for each) If you date 2 first, you end up with 1 (1 in 6) If you date 3 first, you can end up with 1 or 2 (1 in 12 each) If you date 4 first, you can end up with 1, 2 or 3 (1 in 18 each) If you date 5 first, you end up with 1, 2, 3 or 4 (1 in 24 each) If you date 6 first, you end up with 1,2 .. 5 (1 in 30 each). Add that up, and the odds of you settling for each woman are: 1 - 38.1%, 2 - 24.7%, 3 - 16.4%, 4 - 10.1%, 5 - 6.7%, 6 - 3.3% So, 79.2% of the time you "settle" for someone above average. And, for the other 20.8%? You can always split up before it's too late :)
