This is in a very early stage of development and is not designed for people who are in a relationship. I probably need to add more items. This might become a diagram.
- Prohibition of absolutely any commitment (the word "commitment" is not specific enough; maybe "exclusive attention" covers most or all cases)
- Tolerance for anything having a big influence on who the user dates or marries
- Fear of fear itself (applied broadly)
- Allowing a bunch of situations to be handled in an acceptable way without relying on the situation being understood or even having any discernible structure. Example: prohibition of text communication with someone who's not responding, even if the user doesn't know the reason or whether or not there's a technical problem (this prohibition is made possible by the prohibition of commitment, the tolerance for anything having influence, and the fear of fear itself)
- Clinging instead of giving up when about to do a planned courageous task (such as saying hi to crush)
- Focus on finding natural complimentarity
- A lightweight filter that greatly reduces risk of creepiness without any measurable sacrifice
- No separation between platonic and romantic (todo: make this more specific)
- Interacting with people (including those of the opposite sex) that the user feels like interacting with, even if the user can't put their finger on anything other than appearance that is attractive or doesn't predict that the interaction will give something other than short term enjoyment
