You Go Girl! You Still Holdin' On? Claudine Harvey

A courtship gives you the opportunity to work on things that you wouldn't want to take into a marriage; not that all courtships lead to marriage.

There are some couples that seem to be happy all the time and it appears that they never have any problems in their relationship.
