> I don't go on a date unless I am convinced this person and I have some things in common and would actually have a good time hanging out. If one party is worried, they can ask for a phone call/video chat or to exchange social media. In a balanced environment this would work. Dating, apartment rental, and job search markets notoriously aren't balanced environments. > men are far less discerning and are simply "swiping right" on everyone and then engage with any of the resulting "matches" that give them the time of day. This here is the reality. It doesn't matter what you want and feel.
