I agree with John.  Getting out and interacting is the way to acquire the 
requisite ability to meet somebody for a meaningful romantic relationship.  
The people you describe: business owners, doctors, lawyers, etc., may be 
successful at their professions.  However, it sounds like they haven't 
learned how to balance their lives to include fun and romance.  But there are 
many people in those professions who have.  I know the type you are talking 
about.  I've dated women like that and they are a drag.  Just think about 
what you are saying: They feel that they don't have the time to go out and 
interact.  That tells you right there, they probably aren't going to take the 
time in a relationship.

On the other hand, perhaps that is what GE clients are looking for, people
who don't have a meaningful relationship as a priority.  Which is cool if
that's what they want.

I know that type too.  I won't even spend the price of a drink to get to
know them, much less a few thousand bucks.
