According to the set of guidelines of our society, long courtship is most significant part of life through which couples have the opportunity to know each other before knotting the tie. After all, before marriage each person belonged to different family and they grew up in different setup. For the duration of a courtship couples get to know each other and decide if there will be an engagement and marriage. Generally courtship is a public affair, done in public and with family approval. It comprises activities for instance dating where couple go out together for dinner,  movie, dance parties, picnic, shopping or general “hanging out”, along other activities. 

Another study made by Leon Kass, the Addie Clark Harding Professor on the Committee on Social Thought, who have maintained connection  with many of their students well after graduation, had seen many of them “bumble along from one unsatisfactory relationship to the next, becoming jaded and embittered,” said Leon Kass. However he and his wife, Amy Kass, Senior Lecturer in Humanities, determined to deal with the problem, both in writing and in teaching. “One should stop cursing the darkness and offer some light and hope to the romantically perplexed,” he said. They have started with this quarter, about 25 students and trained them with the course Ethics of Everyday Life. They discussed about the courtship which deals with the contemporary and classic works of sex, love, relationship and marriage. The coursework is based on a new anthology the Kasses have edited, Wing to Wing, Oar to Oar: Readings on Courting and Marrying. The book promotes what they call a higher kind of sex education designed to prepare hearts and minds for romance leading to lasting marriage.  

In Christian Religion courtship is distinct as a period before wedding/marriage where a Christian brother and sister have the same opinion about so many issues and observe if they both share the similar visualization, expectation and ambition about marriage. “Courtship is an adopted word to describe the Biblical model for the relationship between a man and a woman that leads to marriage.”
