 In his book, I Kiss, Stating Goodbye, and its sequel, Boy Meets Girl, Josh Harris presents the idea of courtship as a replacement for the secular notion of dating, but its actual definition is nebulous at best. He presents courtship as a model in which a couple is more than friends but less than lovers, which is a balance I'm not sure any couple in history has ever struck for long. As a 21-year-old man in I Kiss, Stating Goodbye, he presents all the reasons why young Christian men and women should keep one another at arm's length, and in Boy Meets Girl, a few years later impresses us with his sudden happy ending. How one is supposed to find their own happy ending between the two is anybody's guess.
