Sharing perspectives about relationships
I think the topic was really great overall, something different and also one where rationality has its limits. Also quite liked the topic based groupings.
Feeling the effort that was put into this event by organizers to make it nice and comfortable for everyone.

The nice guy essay felt unnecessarily long and drawn out.
If anything, mayby that the topics to choose, could have been outlined more precisely, e.g. by introducing them and creating more of a common sense!?
