he asked me to be his girlfriend now woo

Yep.

If you're going on "dates" but haven't officially asked (or been asked) to be someone's SO, you aren't their boyfriend/girlfriend.

If you're "dating", you're their boyfriend/girlfriend.

[ProbablyClueless]

No, but it may as well be. I regard the last lady I was seeing as an ex, even though we were never boyfriend/girlfriend because the intimacy was there.

You'd probably better define it yourself and give him the terms or he might be "dating" a dozen other people...

[In_Trance]

If it didn't work out the last time why would you go back?

I consider dating different from boyfriend/girlfriend
