Choosing the right life partner is one of life’s most significant decisions. While love and attraction spark a relationship, long-term compatibility determines its success. Courtship—a focused period of getting to know each other helps individuals understand values, goals, communication styles, and emotional compatibility before committing. By observing behaviors, asking meaningful questions, and discussing key areas like life goals, finances, and family expectations, courtship reveals whether a partnership has a strong foundation. The goal isn’t perfection but mutual respect, trust, and the ability to grow together. A thoughtful approach during this phase sets the stage for a healthy, enduring relationship built on understanding and shared values.
