Time to find people with toxic habits, who want to own their partners, have medieval notions of what relationships are, and whatnot. Yes, exaggeration a bit, but not much.
Then let's send them on dates with others. See what happens. How they're insecure and hostile and everyone gets drama. Nobody is actually counseled (on screen), everything feels so fake, but maybe this is reality in the highly separated USian society?
In the real world it shouldn't be a problem having your partner "date" someone else. I mean, go bowling? Throwing axes? So what? If that's going to break you up then you already have issues. They're not going out on hot dates with sleepovers.
If it was done in the way of "it's not ok to be possessive, you should do this to get over it" or whatever else that's actually helpful to viewers and participants it would be different. But now it's just drama and "OMG dating others?!?"
