Courtship — not an artifact of the past, but a forgotten necessity for the present, is a fix to modern dating modules.

This time tested approach is neither an archaic formality nor a rigid doctrine — it is a deliberate strategy to relationships, guided by discernment rather than impulse. Courtship does not disregard attraction — it simply refuses to be led by it.

The Puckett family, now a party of three, continues to grace social media with luxury, love, and lessons about being a mom and dad that the average user might have missed in the midst of procreative doom. Though often it’s packaged as content or a paid ad, what Pookie & Jett deliver to followers is the beauty of parenthood, a needed and noble cause.

Martha Stewart built a publicly traded business around the art of entertaining, which she loved deeply and wanted to document to empower regular housewives. With Love, Meghan, on the other hand, proves that for the Duchess of Sussex, “entertaining guests” is merely a facade for her to gloat about her opulent, unrealistic lifestyle.

Classical music and opera have always been elevated pastimes. For 100+ years in America, attending opera or symphony performances carried with it a requisite aura of prestige and behavioral expectation that young people in 2025 are turning to again for inspiration. You see this in the rising nostalgic interest in “country club” aesthetics, Ralph Lauren, and galas and balls.

Whatever happened to the golden age of etiquette books? Back when Emily Post was practically a household authority and Brooks Brothers casually stocked How to Be a Lady next to the navy blazers. For those of us who endured multiple seasons of Cotillion and live for the art of a perfectly wrapped hostess gift, the lack of modern etiquette guidance hasn’t just been noticed — it’s felt like a gaping hole in the social fabric.

Dating these days often feels like swiping into oblivion, punctuated by ghostings and vague “u up?” texts. Old-fashioned courtship rituals — like holding doors or penning handwritten notes — seem like museum-worthy relics. But here’s the twist: More and more college-aged and 20-something singles are embracing these traditions, not as a nod to nostalgia, but as a way to recalibrate respect and thoughtfulness in modern relationships.

Vice President JD Vance has consistently emphasized that his success is deeply rooted in the unwavering support of his wife, Usha. He has proudly embraced his role as a devoted #Wifeguy. As JD embarks on his most significant milestone yet as vice president of the United States, there’s no doubt that Usha will remain a rock for him and their family.

In a world that equates success with promotions, Instagram likes, and the endless pursuit of career milestones, it’s easy to feel as though we’re falling short — especially as mothers. In the midst of the daily grind — diaper changes, tantrums, and yet another rendition of “The Wheels on the Bus” — we often forget that motherhood is not just a series of tasks to complete; it’s a high-stakes job that doesn’t come with a paycheck, a title, or a boss who’s keeping track of every move. But it does come with rewards that no salary can match (even if those rewards are often covered in spaghetti sauce and glitter).

So if you’re weighing a new opportunity, ask yourself: Is this company giving me space to be me? Or am I squeezing myself into a role that doesn’t fit? Trust me: the right job — and the right team — will embrace your quirks, your creativity, and even your edgy manicure.

Fast forward to today, Dairy Boy has grown beyond just a fan club. Paige Lorenze’s Connecticut life is classy, sophisticated, and whether she realizes it or not, patriotic. She is strikingly more American than the myriad of influencers in the spotlight before her.
