I don't agree with the article at all. Then again, I've always felt that the two people should know each other pretty well before they start dating, anyway. In other words, he should be a close enough friend that he already knows about your sangria-induced water ballet, BEFORE anything romantic happens between the two of you. (And of course, you should know equivalent details about him.) This way, you can examine him for "deal-breakers" before the romantic relationship even happens. If he's a drug user, a mama's boy, irresponsible with money, mentally unstable, a whiner, or whatever your deal breakers are, you'll know better than to pursue a romance with this guy. Saves a lot of time and trouble all the way around.
