I didn't even look at it from a religious viewpoint. Naturally, I dont look at topics from a christian point of view. Now, I understand where you coming from. But seriously, healthy relationships can as well result from dating. Personally, I won't expect teens to court. No, they should date.

Dating is merely testing the ground.

Guys: do you date women or do you court them?
Women: do you prefer dating or courting?

what do you think the difference is? and why?


I personally think that nowadays, men don't court women anymore. It's all about dating in today's world. we have lost respect for the traditional way and this is why divorce rates are going UP. courting prepares you for marriage. dating prepares you for break-up

The difference between dating and courting is >>>>>> NADA!. . . . . . There is no difference! Dating is regarded as a legitimate way for two people to become better acquainted. It's all in the motive behind dating! Either for FUN or for getting SERIOUS! Dating leads to courting! Courting is an ADVANCED form of Dating! As i am yet to see anyone, man or woman that approaches any opposite member and introduces him/herself with " Can i court you?" It's always Date! Date!! Date!!! Then after the first date and subsequent dates, courting ensues in some cases though!
And who the hell says dating leads to break up? Can you say the same for dating that leads to courting?
Is it all courting that eventually leads to marriage? Anyone?. . . Dating is an avenue to get to know someone better and determine if you could court the person with a view of marrying them! It's not by force to court whoever you dated neither is there any written law that you must marry whoever you courted! It's all in the motive of individual personalities! Some people might take a casual view of dating. It could be that they just enjoy each other's company, without any intention of marriage. Some might even view such a friend as little more than a trophy or an accessory to be seen with in public to boost their own self-esteem. Often, though, such shallow relationships are short-lived. They often lead to break ups! Of course, you cant expect marriage from all dating, right?
People who date for fun, come to view relationships as transitory—which in a sense prepares them for divorce rather than for marriage. Clearly, when you date someone, you’re affecting that person’s feelings 85% of the time. So be sure your intentions are Pure, though not everyone thinks alike. But it saves a lot of unnecessary discombobulation of emotions!
Some people just date, and it ends there! For others, it leads to something else! I think you should date someone when that person really means something to you and you feel your future together has potential. You care about a person, not just the idea of dating!

Sorry for the long post though! I also used to think Dating and courting were Different! But now i know Better!
