Abstract
A system includes a processor and an interface coupled to the processor. The processor determines that a first user takes a first action, and determines to pair the first user and a second user. The processor pairs the first user and the second user for an interaction, where the interaction lasts for a first time period. The interface receives an indication of a preference of the first user for the second user at a second time. The second time is after the first time period.
