Hewitt actually didn't quite understand the thoughts of young people nowadays.
In their time, falling in love was a very simple and pure thing.
Although they couldn't be called loyal in love, at least when competing with rivals, they would never intentionally hide from their pursuit.
The competition was not to treat the opposite sex as the spoils of victory for the winner, nor was it to eliminate the threat to oneself from the same sex.
Instead, it was to allow the pursued to better understand their pursuers through this battle and make their final choice based on their performance.
It was not about reducing the number of competitors, but about making the enamored fall in love with their performance.
At the end of the day, love is about emotions. If too many interests and power are mixed in, it will become something else: possessiveness, sense of accomplishment, desire to conquer...
People in the past didn't like to see love deteriorate.
