Youre both more vested in your relationship because of the time and effort youve put into each other. Youre physically intimate when its right for both of you, and when you do, it is magical. Courtship takes more courage because you have to be authentic, open, vulnerable and live without knowing the outcome.

How is courtship different than dating?

To use another analogy, dating is like a comma, whereas courting is like a period. This means that dating presents a man and woman with a number of potential ends to their relationship, whereas courting has only one: marriage. Courtship is not just an act, it is a philosophy.
