As LONG as both of you are certain and determined that you can live together as husband and wife

Courtships are usually long when one person is not ready to settle or there is doubts. But when the people involved are ready and wants the same thing, they tend to hurry thing; say 3 to 6 months they're talking wedding.

Note: whenever you're in doubt about him /her give it more time. Don't let the pressure make you hurry into marriage.

8 months to a year is fine.
FYI, be friends first before you start dating. The courtship period is to know if you are both compatible as a couple.

First is there any difference between dating and courtship?
As far as I am corncerned their is no difference
Dating (to form a romantic relationship with someone) which leads to courtship(to woo someone in love usually with the intention of marriage).

Depends on the stage of life you meet yourselves.

The younger you both are, the longer you court and/or afford to.

This talk of not knowing someone finish:

If you open your eyes well, you will know someone's major characters and can decide if you want to continue or move on.

Sometimes, people focus on the symptoms (an exhibition of a character) than the disease (the character).

For instance;

Saying a man doesn't like women talking back at him instead of seeing that he is condescending towards women;

Saying a woman is argumentative instead of seeing that she has a victimhood mentality/low self-esteem/rancorous

Saying a man is tight fisted instead of seeing he is selfish or doesn't love you.

Etc. Etc.

When the person now starts to exhibit other traits of that character, you say they have changed or they were pretenders undecided

I personally think it largely depends on the individuals involved,
but 1-2 years could be enough for any two individuals to perfectly consider thier mutual compatibility.
then that's dating not courtship. Courtship doesn't take long at all,

The only person that should be looking for who to marry is a man/woman who's ready to marry, a woman/man who understands what it takes to be married and ready to face the responsibilities, a man/woman who's ready financial and emotional. Relationship/courtship for this set of people should not more than 6-12 months. A relationship with clear objectives coupled with specific definition. These set of people knows what they are looking for and can identify those things in few months.


Any other relationship outside this is a waste/fun and not meaningful. People who are not ready for marriage should not be looking for something serious, they can have fun with whoever that got the time as they got too but there shouldn't be commitments because heartbroken is guaranteed, somebody will waste money and somebody will waste body.

8 months to a year is enough but not compulsory.
No matter how long you stayed in a relationship you can never know the character of your partner,some will even hide their character while courting but once they are married they would unleash the dragon in them.


Actually, this isn't true. Most times, people see these bad characters, but desperation and mumu love still make them to give excuses. You see them minimizing the faults of their partner. I agree though, that you don't need to date for too long to see your partner for what he or she truly is

Tuale Sir
socialmediaman:
For younger people in their 20s, no rush, take your time and know what you want in life first and then what you want for each other to help build that life. For people in their 30s and early 40s who want to start a family, it shouldn’t last too long and you both should have difficult conversations about what your values and ideals about life are, so you don’t waste each other’s time trying to change each other.

For older couples in late 40s and above, there should be no rush in getting married, you should be sure that’s what you both want
