Can having a choice make it more difficult to chose?
Over the past hundred years the way people find their spouses have changed drastically.
A hundred years ago people did not choose for themselves. Their parents chose a well endowed mate for them. Some countries still practice this. I spoke with someone who's parents still practiced this. I asked her. "How do you feel about it?" She said. "I think my parents will choose someone that is right for me." I asked. "What about love?" "She said that she would grow to love him, because he would be a good man."
Another scenario that is more recent, is the idea of dating. In the last 50 years it has been the norm for a young person in his or her late teens and early twenties to go to dinner and a movie and get to know eachother, whilst doing something entertaining. Guys would ask girls out, pay for dinner and after a few successful dates with that certain person the "couple" would decide to be a "COUPLE".
