imo, dating isn't exclusive, you're both free to see other people.

and a relationship means you're only seeing each other.


yep

Relationship is exclusive. Dating is the process towards finding one, or the activity of being in one.

i dont consider them the same.

dating: you go on dates but you're not exclusive. you can discuss seeing other people too if that's what you want.
relationships: you're exclusive. you aren't dating anyone else.

Relationship = Commitment
Dating = Just seeing each other, leading to a relationship

Relationship = "Oh hey this is my boyfriend Todd."

Dating = "Yeah so me and Todd went out the other night and got drunk and fucked now I'm pregnant so hit me in the stomach real quick plz."


lmao lol lol yea well this pretty much sums it up

dating is seeing around for that perfect person.
trial and error.

relationship: is more broad. relationship is with any thing...ur mom, ur dad, ur brother, sister, uncle, friends, u have a relationship with those people.

those two get mixed up often.

its not the words. its the people. the time. and the knowledge.

best of luck!
