I have discovered the flaw in the bureaucratic dating model: it's too democratic. Clearly it won't work at all.

What I am planning instead, is a dictatorial dating policy. It's a simple concept and one I see no flaws with; if I fancy someone then there will damn well be reciprocracy of feeling. More than that, not only will feelings be reciprocated, but they will be acted on - and happily! There is no other option here. This is how a dictatorial system works.

See? Simple.

Now, to instutute this... I may need a concomitant "winning the hearts and minds" campaign.
