Is there a difference between dating and being in a relationship?

Question

Just asking. I think there's a difference but I know some people will say "yea, we're dating" and people automatically assume they're in a relationship. Hope that makes sense lol

Answer

I think that dating is more like two ppl who have gone on a couple dates but aren't very official while relationships are more serious.

Answer

Right now I'm "dating" this guy. I feel like we are in a relationship and I feel like he's my boyfriend, but we aren't. I don't mind, but I think we both take relationships seriously, so I don't mind waiting till we decide to fully commit which is where I see a boyfriend for becoming a fiancé for marriage.

Answer

Dating is we're in the process of going on dates and getting to know each other and in a relationship is just that...being in a relationship lol. I feel like the whole concept of both kinda blurred into each other for awhile there but as I get older I'm realizing the importance of both

Answer

I always thought it meant the same thing but I'm in highschool so lol
