Another post from my favorite subreddit - Female Dating Strategy
The context is that the the poster created a thread on women should date in rotation, i.e. don't keep seeing the same guy.
Today's post was the reasoning.

This is identical to what we tell rookies to do - seeing more girls helps you to evaluate and not get one-itis.
This line though,
What are you guys doing to inject more "spontaneity"?

Rotational dating before acquiring commitment is one thing I fully stand behind. Not only does it boost my confidence, it gives me experience in dealing with men and helps me be more objective in vetting. Plus it's literally supported by science.
Now, the brain is one crazy complex organ, so I'll try to keep it short and understandable for those who never studied it. (edit: I tried)
The prefrontal cortex—our brain’s reasoning, command, and control center—drops into low gear when we’re in love. At the same time, the amygdala, a key component of the brain’s threat-response system, shuts down. The combination of these effects is a willingness to take more risks, even ones that would normally seem reckless to us while in another state of mind. (For more, see this study.) Basically, you're unable to objectively judge a love interest and see it for what it is. This is how we fall for the bad boys- our amygdala tells us to!
