"These women did not make the decision to seek and enter outside partnerships lightly. Each women developed a vetting process in an effort to avoid negative experiences with potential outside partners. This process began with perusing the man's profile, but the vetting process itself extended over weeks or months via email before deciding to meet in person to check chemistry. However, no matter how extensive these processes were, every woman in the study for whom this was not their first outside partnership had multiple stories of disappointing sexual experiences with men with whom they had intended to enter into outside partnerships, but an unsatisfactory sexual encounter led them not to pursue that relationship. Another issue that arose during the vetting process included encountering men who responded rudely to rejection or perceived rejection. Ultimately, women often chose outside partners whose physical presentation was 'not their type.' Some women sought partners with traits they now realize they should have selected in a primary partner."
