In any case, we've known each other for a few months now and have become pretty familiar with each other. We would always go out together for activities like concerts, shows, dinner or iceskating. Our conversations are always stimulating and comfortable. I would be getting pretty much all platonic vibes until some unplatonic things, like hand holding, some touching and conscious compliments on my looks, but nothing alarmingly serious. I am aware of the fact that so far we're just friends, I'm not sure if what we've been doing count as dating? Are these dates? Reply to this Question Share |

I was wondering the same thing a few weeks ago. And sorry to say this but 'no' it would just be hanging out as friends. I could be wrong, but he made it clear that he's not looking for casual sex, yet he's a busy man.
Who knows, maybe after he's done with his studies.
Good luck and keep me posted!

Unless of course you consider meeting up with friends, dates.
So I guess it all comes down to how you would define a date.
