    Courting is an old fashioned idea that I LOVE. It's a traditional way of dating where a young man is very respectful and polite towards the person he is dating. They take things slow, and aren't all over each other from day 1.

    As for the expression you mentioned, I've never heard it before. I would guess it means that even though a girl is not in a committed relationship with someone she knows how to give him what he "wants" if you catch my drift. :) So yes, you were kind of right when you said it means a girl is easy. It reminds me of the whole "friends with benefits" idea.

    Courting is something that is still done in some cultures but is pretty much dead in the United States. Courting is a semi-dating ritual where the young couple that is seeing each other are chaperoned by an adult who keeps the couple within sight so that they can't get intimate but they can talk with each other and get to know each other in a somewhat supervised situation.

    Guys tend to enjoy easy girls for a time because they are driven by sexual urges and they like being able to satisfy those urges without any commitments. You don't want to join the crowd and give it up for a guy just to keep him from moving on. If you give it up for a guy he's going to move on at some point anyway and you might be left with a child or two to raise on your own. Wait for a guy that loves you enough to marry you and stick with you before you go down that road.

    Hope this helps you. There's a saying, "If you can get milk for free, why buy a cow?" Don't give it away. Make him buy the cow. Let him know he can have you only if he marries you.

    Good luck! Hope this helps you.

  • 1. Courting: A version of dating that suggests a sequence of actions to get a woman to know the suitor, or in some cases, each party does the courting. It's a bit like an extended game of cards, where one's hand is gradually revealed and each tests the water step by step to see if they are right for each other, while at the same time being on one's best behavior. (Generally, this could be understood by reading a Jane Austin novel, where pre-Victorian couples "courted" prior to proposing engagement. Nowadays, it's much less formal, and can refer to a dating process where the man is trying to build and grow a woman's attraction to him over a series of dates, gifts and communications. But, whereas courting traditionally was intended to culminate in a committed long-term relationship, today, courting can just as likely be a process to lead to an extended hook-up, or the hook-up period can be an element in a courting process to make a good impression on the other partner, or see if the couple are a good fit for longer-term commitment.

    2. The wifey quote is interesting. It depends on the context.If said in a positive context, it might mean this: "She's really sexy because he is drawn to her by the way she acts, and she's not 'wifey", because she's not possessive, bossy or demanding."

    But ...If said in an insulting context, it might mean something very different: "Shes not wifey but she knows what he wants" could mean she's very sexy but not committed to anyone, suggesting a temporary physicalness to their situation.

    I am a serious obsessor about this stuff so thanks for some intellectual stimulation!!!! Courting is like dating, except in England now and back when the men would "call" which is coming around to the girl the "fancy" and talking to her at her house with a shaperone. It was almost always with a shaperone. Courting is like dating except you would almost always be in company and you wouldn't be nearly as kissy kissy.. And that's in fabrics and furniture....she knows what she wants but she's not yet married... planning out her house. Or that she's been around the block a few too many times! :P

    I find that quote to be quite interesting. I did not think at all that it means she is easy. I think it could mean that even though she is not wifey material, it does not mean that she does not know what he wants. She does, but maybe she is a woman on the go. A woman who does not want commitment, or a woman who is what she is, and not what society think she should be as a wife. And she knows this herself. Maybe she does not care too much about being a wife.

    Courting means the act of getting a person to like you. Like starting the friendship, flirting, dating, flowers, chocolate... that kind of thing. It's kind of an old fashioned word, but cute none the less.

    As for the quote, I don't think it means she's easy, I think it means, possibly, she's in love. She wants to make him happy.

    courting for some countries are traditions where guys pursue a girl. guys are limited to just seeing the girl at the girl's house (usually, parents' place). girls would not go on a date with the courting guy until it's official that it's them....and a lot more..

    for me the quote means - she's not a girl that you would want to spend your life with but when you're with her. but she knows what a guy wants..especially in bed..

    not too sure about the quote...it sounds like it means that the girl in the quote is not wife material but she pleases the man sexually. Courting means dating with the intention of marriage.
