I guess my problem with that analogy is that business relationships are supposed to be self-interested. They're supposed to be mutually self-interested, for sure, and most of them revolve around convincing the other person it's in their interests, too, but there's still an element of self-interest that a love relationship, frankly, doesn't have.
In this case it's still try before you buy, but kls is asking the company to iron his shirt before getting married, rather than asking them out on a date. No surprise that they aren't interested.
