Were they dates?

Question - (6 January 2012) 3 Answers - (Newest, 6 January 2012)
A female Australia age 26-29, *rabella-octavius writes:

Just needing some clarification. I can't believe how hard it is to define a date. It's made especially hard because the boy I hung with had a girlfriend already.

My definition of a date is an outing with romantic interest. Agree? Disagree?

The 1st time we went out for the day, we saw a movie, took stickyphotos and he offered to pay for lunch. He texted me when I was about to sleep saying he still likes me.

The 2nd time we went out, he'd just recently broken up and a few days ago we'd cuddled and shit at my place. I can assume quite surely we both liked each other then.

Around the 3rd time we went out, he'd started asking if I can buy more time and have dinner. He was back with his ex but nobody knew and I didn't until wayy later.

These outings happened over a year ago. He and I are still friends but not inappropriately. I'm friends with his girlfriend now too. As I see it, we went on dates but never dated. Does that even make sense?

Ask_Jess agony auntI would say they are dates. If you went out together and it was anything more than platonic then it was a date, if he said he had feelings for you it was definitely a date!

So_Very_Confused agony auntI had a lunch date today. With my girlfriend. NOT a romantic dating girfriend but my best friend girlfriend...

A date is just a term....

it's a label for something....

search your feelings and figure out why it's so important to you to have what went on labeled.....

aunt honesty agony auntHe had made it clear to you back then that he liked you, my guess is that his relationship was in a bad place and he was just confused about what he wanted at the time. I would just try and forget about that period of your friendship now and just let it go. I wouldn't exactly class it as you where both dating, he was just confused and did not know what he wanted. Try and let it go now and just be friends with him and his girlfriend. Bringing up all this history will just create trouble for everyone.
