Courting the maiden

[Spaced]

The relationship did require courting, which may be why it was not meant to be. To me, someone who would truly love me would not require to be courted.

So what, you want a relationship where you make eye contact with someone and they instantly know everything about the totality of your being and vice versa and you don't even need to exchange a single word because your both swept away with love? Good luck.

Justlikeyou's metaphor of the musical instrument is good too. You can't just pick up a guitar and know how to play.
