If it seems like the cultural climate encourages more entanglements with a serious business partner than a serious romantic partner, that seems... pretty problematic. But if relationships are more about consumption than production, it's hard to make the case against optionality

Agree fully with your dislike of all of the modern sayings, but if that is what everybody thinks, then that's what we're going to find when we meet people. I quit rolling the dice as soon as I found someone that considered relationships and not dating 'the work'.

Not implying 'work' as a negative connotation - just suggesting that there are goals that are easier to achieve with a partner.
