I had never really had a definition to a date. I was always puzzled by the thought.. "Is this a date? or Was that a date?" I never knew unless a guy specifically said "Would you like to go on a DATE?" and used the word date! Now every time I am asked out I think to myself, are we paired off?, Is it planned out? and is it paid for? If the answer is yes to all three of those questions I know it was a date. All the confusion was then cleared up. I also LOVED learning about the KnowQuo. 1. Time 2. Togetherness 3. Talk I truly believe that is the way to get to know someone. All dating really is is practice. We are in a state in which we are preparing to be married. We date so that we gain experience and find what we want and don't want in a spouse. It only makes sense then to only date guys you could see yourself marrying, and NOT to date guys you could never see yourself marrying. As we date we develop important skills. Skills that will be beneficial, if not necessary in marriage. I found it interesting that once you're married every single thing you own then becomes "ours" it's not longer mine, or yours.. it's ours. OUR house, OUR kids, OUR car, OUR job, OUR friends. It reminds me of the scripture that speaks of leaving the parents and becoming one. I love it!
