• You should get nothing but encouragement.
• Don’t Let impatience get the upper hand.
• Be her friend but don’t communicate your interest until you’re ready for a relationship.
• Have a Clear Purpose.
• Don’t play with anyone’s heart.
• Learn each others values and goals.
• Ask alot of questions.
• Go on dates ;) 

On the moment you confess, romance isn’t the priority. It is not meant to be mushy. You need to tell her that through your friendship, you grown to respect her(better than any petty compliment). Do not play games with her, your confession must be clear so that there are no misunderstandings in the future. And of course give her time to answer haha. Intimacy shouldn’t out-space commitment meaning balance boundaries. Honor the protection of the girl (you can do that by seeking blessing from her parents. Which is the most bad ass thing a guy can do, Trust me.). And with clear intentions couples are free to spend time together. (guilt free ;D)

Be a man. don’t test the waters. Don’t even try to find out of she likes you too, It would be fair. I mean sino may gusto malaman na niligawan ka lang kasi alam nyang sure yes yung sagot? 

But the most important part in having a relationship with purpose. Don’t waste each other’s time at wag kayo maging “virus” sa isat isa, I mean what if lumala grades or sumama ugali nya dahil sayo, what would her parents think? That you suck and hindi karapat dapat. And think of what they’ll  think of her? Her image would be ruined. Real men don’t do that.

You might say: “Why? Can’t I just play with her? D:”
Do you really want another BS romantic relationship that ends badly? We have enough heartbreaks already. And someone always have to clean it up. Its not the easiest task in the world. And think about it, Is it a wise or caring way to treat someone?

Courtship has serious intent. It can be low pressure and casual in the beginning but as your relationship deepens it becomes more serious like from “I’d like to get to know you.” to “I’d like to marry you.” ;) But theres alot of space between those.

This is different how? Its not dating with JUST a different NAME. Courtship is a commitment. It is a promise to not play with each other’s hearts. Romance with wisdom.
