My friend told me, him and this girl are dating but are not in a relationship. He said they don't have sex, but I know they kiss. He use to like me(we kissed), but we decided to be friends. He tried to come over to my apartment at 2 am, but I didn't allow that because it was too late and he is dating her. So what is the difference? I never heard of dating and not being in a relationship or leading to one.

Some people "date" in that they see each other and can have romantic and somewhat sexual relations, but are not exclusive. When it's exclusive, then, I believe, it becomes a relationship. Don't ask me to make sense of it, I don't believe in it, myself, but it's what a lot of people do.

I asked the guy that I have been seeing for a month if we were in a relationship and he said that he didn't want to be in a relationship for a while and that he wanted to get to know me better first. At the same time he told me that he was exclusively dating me and no one else? What is the difference between exclusively dating and being in a relationship? Does this mean we are boyfriend/girlfriend?

It means - don't worry about it. Being "in a relationship" is pointless if you rush into it. Remember the saying "fools rush in"? A month of "just dating" is nothing in the long run. It sounds like you're pretty young, I'm guessing. I can't tell my sisters this enough - pressure a boy into becoming your "boyfriend" and he'll lose interest. When he's ready, he'll tell you - and it's usually in a very romantic way because he's smitten. And if he's not, you'll see the signs loud and clear and be much better off not in a relationship. Best advice, just enjoy and make the most out of every moment with him.

I listen about dating. Is it a chance for me to involve in any free relationship with any girl. How is it and what is the process of dating?

Ill let you know on your 13th birthday k??

I would say what is typical is within three dates. How long do people nowadays wait to have sex when first dating? When should you invite a guy over for the first time? How long should you wait before having sex for the first time? I would say within a month or six dates. We're in our late 30's. Thx. Does it not work out into a relationship if you have sex within two weeks or four dates? Thanks.

2-3 months

You know, on myspace and facebook, there is a distinction between looking for "dating" and "a relationship." I just want to know the difference. Because seriously, when you ask a girl out on a date, doesnt she assume you want a relationship? Because, if not, then she should not be mad when you break up with her and just say that you were just interested in dating. Basically what is the purpose of dating if you aren't interested in a long term relationship? someone is going to get hurt in the end.

girls expect more out of a guy. and we want to enjoy guys. and when you ask a girl out, that is consideredd boyfriend and girlfriend. so if you want to just "date" the girl, you should find a girl the wants to do the same thing. if yall like how the date went, yall can call each other up for another one. and if not, she wont asume that you want to date her but you have to make it clear to her before you go on the date with her that you are just dating right now. i hope this helped!
