Hi. I miss the days where courtship was a big part of the beginning of relationships
Me too!  LOVE flower, candy, going out to dinner.  ALL OF IT!
i agree, now a days it just seems like couples rush into everything , so fast. Courtship was a time for the couple to really get to know each other before they got engaged
I don't know that courtship always has to end in a 'relationship'.  It can just be a pleasant way to spend time with somebody you like.
True. The couple could end up not even liking each other lol Today its called "dating" which is a form of courtship
I don't think the young folks 'date'.  I think they go out in groups and then the 'hook up' if there's a spark.  It's not really 'dating' or 'courtship'.
Right. Its much different today. I remember listening to my grandma tell me how it was so romantic when she was being "courted" by my grandpa and how it was the tradition in her family in hopes of a marriage proposal.
In the past marriage was the sought for end for all people.  It was more of a contract made with some pretty clear eyed thought by all parties including the families.
Yes, like when the families would arrange marriages. I cant imagine how that must of felt. To not meet my partner before the wedding.
