Date

In most western countries, going on a date means having dinner maybe a movie after that. There’s nothing more than a night of getting to know someone and to determine if you want to “see” this person again. What determines a “date” you may asked?. When someone from either sex ask for dinner or to do a activity alone with you or in a group, considers as “dating“. When you have a date, meaning there’s just the 2 of you. You can have a few dates for a continuation whether if you want to see this person on a regular basis. Of course you can also have other dates with other people too and vice versa. Most girls like to go on different dates, to have better judgment on which guy is more suitable for her. Dating is the funnest part of all. The guys will shower the girls in fancy dinner’s, flowers, gifts etc. For the guys, be careful what you are getting into. There are so many types of girls out there, not sure what you are looking for, but at times have to pay the price for your actions.

Seeing

From dating graduates into seeing each other. It means the both of you are seeing each other on a regular basis. At the same time both parties can be seeing other people as well. You are still on a trial basis, both parties can stop seeing each other as well.  When the 2 of you are more comfortable and decided to move ahead, you will be graduating into going steady.

Steady

When you are at this stage, you are consider boyfriend and girlfriend. Probation period is over and both parties are comfortable with each other and ready to move on to a monogamous relationship. It can take weeks to months to go steady with someone. For some people, they have not move so far ahead. This is going into a serious relationship. Not everyone is ready for a commitment. Some people would just like to have some fun and stay at the “seeing” stage.

Sex

When is the right time to initiate sex?. Anytime, BUT how would your relationship go after that?. What plans or what intentions do you have for this person?. If you are out to have some fun and both parties are ok with it then by all means. You would have to think about the questions above, because after having intimacy, the relationship will change.

I find it funny here in Asia where by people here skip the seeing part. Once you’re on a date with someone it’s like you are going steady with them. There is no change to consider at all. It makes going on a date with someone difficult. Before you know it this dude is calling u 24/7 asking u why didn’t you call, or what are you doing. Dude didn’t know the gal is ignoring him cause she want out. She has no chance to turn him down. At times, guys just react too fast to too little things. Most of the time, girls are just testing waters. Go on a date with a guy to get to know him more but doesn’t mean she’s attached to him after 1 date.

Till next time…
