Do you count someone you dated casually as an ex or just a friend?

I would say that it depends whether you fornicated with that person or whether no copulation was involved in that relationship.

If fornication took place, then it is indeed it would be considered an ex. At least that is my understanding of the term "ex".

People would have many more exes if they would include all those people that they copulated at least once during the dates, even if it is only happening once and then the relationship was over or severed.

Thank goodness I cannot speak from experience since I don't practice that kind of activity and I am not interested in finding out.

If I've gone out with someone on dates but didn't get into relationship, I'd just say he's "Someone I went out with" not an ex and not even a friend unless he was my friend before I went out.

[NathanDavis]

there's only... three people I went out with, and we kind of tried/explored if something else would work out too, it didn't work out like that but I don't count them as "exes" no, consider friends because we're friendly or friends today

also... I am very good friends with two of my exes, so I count them more as long time, best and close friends... I don't see them as exes

high-school and college was long time ago too...

I am naturally inclined to begin superficial bonding quite quickly. If both of us are having a nice time with each other and routinely having sex, I will start thinking of her as a girlfriend.

It may not last very long but I would think of her as an ex girlfriend. Friend is a more serious term I think than ex-gf.

[HawkPerception]

I dated 2 girls for 2 weeks each. While my intention was serious and we called each other boyfriend/girlfriend fast, I don't consider them to be relationships.

[Summeroflove]

Well depends on the situation. If you’re friends then yes but if you don’t really talk anymore then that’s no

[Purpleronnie]

Always an ex , women would be friends first then partner but could never go back to friendship after relationship. Should the relationship fail, they are then nothing but an ex or just someone that I used to know.

[PeachyPie93]

If we never dated or did anything sexual then they are nobody to me. Just a stranger I used to talk to lol..

[itsannalee]

It’s clearly said dated.

[PeachyPie93]

Well I mean officially.. like they weren't my boyfriend..

[lilBigPotato]

Ex = we have been officially in a relationship.

So if it was just a few dates, I wouldn't count him as ex (or even friend, just an acquaintance)

[Lliam]

If it was just casual and we were never in an exclusive relationship, I would consider them to be a friend, not an ex.

[emeraldsaphire]

Just a friend. If i counted all my friends with benefits and ONS I'd have a lot of Exes lol

[red-lipstick-girl]

I wouldn't count someone I have a weak emotional bond with as my ex-boyfriend or as my boyfriend.

[katiesmuff]

Guess it would depend on if that casual included having a sexual fuckfest with him or not.

[__Nikki__]

If I considered him my boyfriend at the time, he's my ex now, otherwise not.

[Berethor]

You count him as ex, because he is part of your body count list.

[HighValue]

If they had sex, it still counts, even if it was only once.

[Drumlin2001]

Nah. Had someone I dated casually for month, don't count her as an ex.

[Ms_Facesitter]

A friend. It never got official, so it's not an ex.

[Wise4myage]

I think that would all depend on how long I dated her.

[13cmlong]

Most times an ex but I have had a few ex's that became friend 2 or 3 still had sex with sometimes.

[nawtee_me]

If there was no committed relationship then there is no ex…. It is just a guy you dated….

[qwerty2469]

I dont count anyone i dated as an ex. I put my book mark in you. I might come back.

[Simslover92]

Just a friend

[Cormac995]

If you dated they're an ex.

[EmmaMary]

Just a jolly good friend.

[WhitneySnow]

They still count as an ex

[beenherebefore]

I count as someone I used to talk to.

[glennos89]

If I had sex with her she is kind off a ex

[fonduegirl]

Ex. Always ex.

[WonderingManII]

[RHK36]

If it got physical then it's an ex
