If you’re not European or Chassidishe, it’s probably too short. Rabbi Braun of Ohr Sameach Monsey has a wonderful series on shidduchim. True, it’s geared to be a primer for BTs but I think it’s apropos for everyone. He makes the point that you need time to digest a date, and cautions against going out too often, without a break.
I guess a lot of what he says is important for BTs as they may be handling a lot on their own. Presumably, the gene pool you (akcc) are referring to have parents with their kids’s best interests at heart, and the kids will take what the parents have to say very seriously, even while making their own decisions. We can only hope.
