Hey.

What's the difference between seeing each other, going out and dating?
Is going out just 'going out' whereas seeing each other is more serious etc?

I never like that uncertainty when you've been with the person, and you don't know whether you're 'girlfriend-boyfriend' yet because no one has said it yet....

those 3 seem the same to me, dating sounds a little more serious than the others but none of them are exclusive dating

fb: i think the original poster meant "dating each other" as opposed to "going on a date"

dating is like going out to together and making it an occasion..
seeing them is constantly going out together but casually?
and 'going out' means that you's are bf and gf?

i thought "seeing each other" is just like, a boy and girl like each other and wanna see how each other is like so they spend time with one another before corfirming they are one.

and "going out" can mean many things depending on the context. but "going out" and "dating" are like the same thing. aren't they? help!

seeing each other = o0o0o they're interested but not official
going out = it's official he's ma guy/gal
dating = going out
going steady = things get serious
marriage = if u dont know what this is... hmmmm...

They're all the same to me. It's just a matter of choice as to which phrase you would like to use. Probably based on your mood? LoLz

i thought it was the other way, seeing someone was when you just began to go out, you're not sure where it's going to go. going out is the same type of thing, but slightly more?

dating is a very americany term for going out somewhere to test out the water.
seeing eachother is more a longer term thing
going out seems like a more aussie term, and teeny at that... but still, a more permanent sort of thing as opposed to dating.

well, that's what i've discovered. (i gathered that dating thing after watching some US dawsonscreekesque thingy - quite possibly DC :D).
