Courtship 

A time in which people will get to know each other better - used in place of dating. During courtship, people spend time with their partner's family as well as private time with their partner to make sure that they're aiming towards marriage.

I'd rather be courted and engaged in courtship, then be dated, used for an evening and be on the dating scene.

courtship 

something really really old fogies used to say instead of ‘dating’. Noone youger than my great grandpa uses this word anymore - except for Darwin!

i'm taking my girl to the drive in and the milk bar during our courtship. Then maybe if i play my cards right, she might lift her peticoat and show me her knees.

A punishment worse than death itself.

Johnny, me and your farther decided that you are not going to be dating. But you are going to be courtshiping!

courtship vs. ship-court 

How da seaside-magistrate's docket-entry would read when referring to a legal-wrangling procedure regarding a wayward sailor who "had a girl in every port", and who therefore might eventually need to show his crude weather-beaten visage in front of said refined black-and-white-robed individual regarding paternity, broken prenuptials, etc.

In da Laurel and Hardy film, "Live Ghost", Mae Busch's character, "dear ol' Maisie", belabors her deadbeat-alcoholic husband off da ship with her furled umbrella; da implication is dat she will haul him before da local judge on charges entitled, "courtship vs. ship-court".

Virtual Courtship 

When two people meet and date in a virtual world online with the intent of being together in real life. People who participate in Virtual Courtships are not initially bound by looks, age, location, and sometimes gender, thus providing a much greater real life dating pool. Virtual Courtships bypass flawed algorithms on static profile-based dating sites, allowing for real time, constant interaction.

"Matchsticks and I had an entirely Virtual Courtship. We had met as friends, fell in love, and decided to be together before we had actually met in person. I lived in the US, he was in Australia, and while skype video did a lot to connect us, the majority of our time together was on Second Life, where we met."

Kangaroo Courtship

A romantic relationship two parties enter into for no other reason than to be in a relationship. A relationship without love or merit.

"I'm not surprised you found him on tinder considering his kangaroo courtship."

cuntship 

The commiserating camaraderie of cunts that develops when two or more angry women (possibly going through their midlife crises) justify the destruction of their lives and the lives of everyone within their suicide-bomber blast radius.

A cuntly relation or intimacy.

Cuntly feeling or disposition.

An evil bond formed by commiserating, angry, men-hating cunts.

My ex-wife formed a cuntship with her bookclub girlfriends after reading Eat, Pray, Love.

He could sense their cuntship through her narrowly disguised smile.
