I just met my soulmate!  I never thought it could happen, but it did, and I love him so much!  He said he wants to court me!  So sweet!
How wonderful! Courtship marks the beginning of a more enduring kind of relationship, but before engagement and marriage
Really?  I never heard of the term until he said he wanted to court me!  Tonight he's taking me to the movies!  I can't wait!
Well, a courtship can be informal and private, or it can be a formal public arrangement with your family's approval!
My family better approve!  I think he's great!  I hope we have a long courtship!
Traditionally, the purpose of a courtship was for the male to court the female, encouraging her to understand him and become open to a marriage proposal
