Back in the day someone's father would teach their son's how to court a woman. I had no real father figure growing up but I was lucky to have met my wife in highschool. I recently asked my grandmother how my grandfather courtes her and it was actually so simple.
Nowadays men and women have unrealistic expectations of each other and what relationship should be. Social media is also put a divide between us and how we communicate with each other from a very young age.
On top of this men have become afraid of failure when it comes to talking to women. This a long with social media saying you are a creep for taking a shot men have been crippled in their confidence.
I believe that social media should not be available to kids and young adults until adulthood. I believe that social media prevents people from socializing properly. Face to face communication with both sexs is crucial for humans.
Can you make a basic bullet list on how to court a women? I have a girlfriend and I want to court her again xdd.
Give us the wise words
Lol. My Papa died before I could ask him but my Mimi told me in her own words.
Don't be afraid of failure. In each failing is a lesson.
I have been married 15 years and it wouldn't have happened if I didn't try a second time.
