When you talk to women your m.o. should be breadth-first search, weighted by expected value. You should always talk to women in parallel rather than serially. You can't afford the time it takes to talk to women serially, plus if you only talk to one woman at a time, they don't have the pressure of other women to make them act. But you shouldn't pay the same attention to every woman, because some are more promising prospects than others. The optimal solution is to talk to all potential women in parallel, but give higher priority to the more promising ones.
