Responses:

i think once you are older than say, 18, those slightly different shades of meaning become irrelevant. - Andie Nov 4, 13:40 20
- wait what? it's the beginning only? I thought you could "see someone" for years. -- nm - amanda Nov 4, 13:41 19
  - i suppose you can. see? what does it matter? i had a friend (Lori) who, even in her 30s hated - Andie Nov 4, 13:46 16
    - now "date" I would think that is a friend who is going to a party with you. - dogbert Nov 4, 13:49 1
      - exactly. that's the implication. she didn't care. -- nm - Andie Nov 4, 13:50
    - I never use the word boyfriend besides ironically. it's so loserish. -- nm - amanda Nov 4, 13:48 13
      - whoa whoa. to *me,* it is. I just use names. "groiny and I went to a movie this weekend." - amanda Nov 4, 13:49 3
        
        It adds clarity when you do the hand gestures too while referring to him. -- nm - pmb Nov 4, 13:58
        
        Lover? -- nm - loosilu Nov 4, 13:50 1
        
        so poncey. actually the second worst. I just use names. -- nm - amanda Nov 4, 13:52
      - jammer? jam-master?? -- nm - stuffed pixie Nov 4, 13:49
      - What do you call someone you're dating seriously? -- nm - Hotkiss Nov 4, 13:49 7
        
        for the record, i can't call Dave my fiance. i just can't. it just sounds super-pretentious to me. - Andie Nov 4, 13:51 2
        
        those French words really can't help themselves -- nm - Hotkiss Nov 4, 13:52 1
        
        well, if they could help themselves, they wouldn't really be French, would they? -- nm - TFox Nov 4, 13:52
        
        "Here's that guy Frank that tosses me some dick on occasion." - TFox Nov 4, 13:50
        
        I don't date seriously. -- nm - amanda Nov 4, 13:50 2
        
        It's more . . . comedically? -- nm - pmb Nov 4, 13:54 1
        
        it is; half. my dating life is tragicomedy. -- nm - amanda Nov 4, 13:56
  - Say, this reminds me. What did the blind girl say to her blind bf when breaking up with him? - Dr.Vermin Nov 4, 13:42 1
    - :) -- nm - Andie Nov 4, 13:46
i didn't think "going together" and "going out" were used anymore. -- nm - kare Nov 4, 13:39 2
- you know what phrase cracks me up in 70s movies? "Making it" to mean banging. -- nm - loosilu Nov 4, 13:40 1
  - I'm glad I could be of some amusement to you -- nm - David Naughton Nov 4, 13:48
What if I asked when you would start going steady? -- nm - psilotum Nov 4, 13:36 2
- i would drive through town to see if Reese Witherspoon was busy being mad slutty, and get in line. -- nm - TFox Nov 4, 13:38
- i would say "did i travel back to the 50s in a tricked out delorean?" -- nm - stuffed pixie Nov 4, 13:37
if I said "we've been dating since april" would you ask when we were going to start going out? -- nm - amanda Nov 4, 13:36 4
- you're already going out! - stuffed pixie Nov 4, 13:36 3
  - right? if I said "we've been banging since april," would you ask when we were going to start going out? -- nm - amanda Nov 4, 13:39 2
    - I'd ask where you get your stamina. -- nm - pmb Nov 4, 13:56
    - no, but I'd probably give you a high five -- nm - dogbert Nov 4, 13:45
I don't think that would be their first quesiton. -- nm - loosilu Nov 4, 13:36
see, not even like fully grown up. even pixie grown up gets it. -- nm - TFox Nov 4, 13:35
