Two points from this article:

1: Since married life is not easy, therefore couples need to pray for "steadiness of love, large heartedness and the spirit of sacrifice"

2: Young people should be taught about the dignity of married love,
so that they will be able to enter a marriage of their own after an honorable courtship

Re "honorable courtship" maybe the language and thinking of this article (largely a priest's words) need updating (no pun intended) but its goal is a worthwhile one

Just found - a better article: Courtship and the Honorable Man  (written by a married woman)

Jesus, please help young people value the ideal of an honorable courtship
