I think this is one of those terms that is used sometimes when people don't want to express their intentions in clear terms, but it doesn't necessarily mean the same thing to all people. What does it mean TO YOU?
I don’t think so.
I dated casually after break up, I didn’t have sex with any of them.
Actually my ex was the first and the last man I had sex with.
I dated casually to figure out if I’d like them enough to grow something more out of it. But I wasn’t ready so they all failed and never reached to the point where I’d have feelings or have sex with them.

It means being committed to having casual sex with someone lol
Casual dating is what I did after my divorce. I wasn't looking for a relationship, just some female companionship. Sometines sex happened, sometimes it didn't. Then I met my SO, and it was no longer casual.
to me... "casual dating" means... let's date to find out if we like each other...
which is different from what I usually do it myself... first, we get to know each other a bit ("hanging out") and then we go out and date, after we know we like each other...
now... what other things are implied or not implied with casual dating... well, I do find out about that too with the other person I would be casually dating with
if we really think about it... the concept of what "commitment" actually implies and means, also can be different from people to people, and therefore not that clear in exact terms eitherNever really thought to define it, but I never found dates through websites or whatnot. I guess I did make the joke recently about "dating" a mutual friend recently. We would hang out frequently and do stuff together, went to concerts/art festivals, ren-faire, parties... As someone non-binary who has NEVER understood (or been attracted to) women, I thought, "this is great. I FINALLY have a proverbial female friend whom I can just hang with and talk to who's not trying to momsplain me, censor my bawdy humor or wants to have hair and makeup parties and all the other femme bullshit." And then she tried to kiss me and it got weird, so that ended. But I was joking to a mutual friend that, "Yeah, apparently we were dating for a while and I didn't know it."
I like your question but I couldn't select any of these because in my dictionary there's nothing like casual dating exists. For me dating is serious thing.
That does not mean being formal in the process but being transparent and opening up feelings & knowing each other well to ensure if we can continue a serious relationship later.
I know most people (mostly young) connect casual dating to getting physical with the person later or after a couple more meetings. I just wish things were different and people were more serious about dating & not seek it as a channel for fleshly pleasures which could be achieved at a later stage in a relationship also.no, it's getting to know the person to decide if you want to spend the rest of your life with, to make a family with, and that usually includes sex. if you feel comfortable naked and get pleasure, that' just adds to whatever else you liked about that person as a father/mother/partner for a future life. etc
I don't really know what casual dating means, because I've never really thought through it enough to come up with a definition. The reason is because the term itself doesn't even appeal to me at all whenever I hear it (or read it). Because I'm looking for marriage, and therefore I date intentionally. So dating "casually" just doesn't sound like something I would be interested in whatsoever in any way, shape, or form.
Just dating to see what happens. Not exclusive yet and not official yet. If it tirns into a relationship then it turns into a relationship. If sex is involved then sex is involved. It's just a go with the flow type thing.
To me casual dating would mean occasionally going out or occasionally having sex and maybe a mix of the two. But without and concept of exclusivity.
To me it means dating without the pressure of it going anywhere serious. I. e also seeing other people
For me, casual dating is like test-driving cars. You experiment till you find the right one, and sex is part of that experience.
For me, it means getting to know each other.. Feeling each other out.. Maybe sex can be involved, but it doesn't have to be.. At least for a while..
Not for me, as I said I often avoided having sex because in my opinion it spoils the relationship.
To me casual dating means exactly that. We date casually. Not every weekend & only if we are in the mood to go out. But sex that is definitely out of the equation.
Casual dating in my opinion isn't anything serious, where two people spend time together, sometimes going on dates but most of the time prioritising physical intimacy.
Casual dating ending in sex is slut wanting sex.
WAKE UP!Yes, casual dating but no sex. I want us to find one another.
Not to me. It means going out to see if there is potential.
Like with casual sex, there should be no romantic feelings developing between nobody.
A for me. Sex comes after marriage.
