How to tell if a Homeschooled Girl wants to Court You

Homeschooled young people rarely ever get to interact with the opposite gender, and when there is an occasional conversation between a diverse group, so many things seem to be happening at once that is hard to tell if a girl is indicating it’s time to start the six month interview process with her father. So to help the guys out, here are a few ways she might send a clear message:

She debates with you the best version of the courtship process.

It’s quite a heated conversation, but she’s really trying to find out your take on the whole thing (and let you know how it’ll go down with her Dad).

She looks at you in Teen Track.

You glance across the aisle and it looks suspiciously like she hasn’t heard a word Bill Jack has said.

She sits next to you in Four-on-the-Couch.

There is a way to make this happen on purpose if you think quickly enough!

She quotes The Princess Bride and then expects you to get it.

And if you wonder why she just said something oddly clever, then know you just got deleted.

She offers to edit something you’ve written.

Then she’ll send it back with nearly everything changed (because it needed it) and a little joke here and there to confirm things.

She briefly lets a stray hair out of her normal bun or braid.

Or she might take it all the way out and redo it. Then you know this’ll be a fast process.

She disobeys her parents, her grandparents, and her brothers, and wears a tiny bit of lipstick.

A girl will do anything to get your attention, even if it means going against her own conservative bones. She might even try something new with her hair.
