>>one question - what is the goal of one on one dating?<<
Sex./s/
Seriously, I didn’t “date”. I went out with friends.
My girls will do the same. I like the courtship idea.
You’re absolutely right, at least in the boy’s mind and intentions.
When there’s a courtship, it is recognized up front that the goal is to determine compatibility for marriage, the suitability of the young man for the father’s daughter, and that they are both to arrive at the altar morally pure.
