Would this be considered dating?

Okay, so about 3 years ago I met this guy. I was 16 he was 18, at first I thought it was just a sneaky link but it's been 3 years and he's still in my life. We fuck, hangout, and do couple shit but like I don't know. He's never asked me to be his girl but he does tell me he loves me and that he misses me when we're not together... I have feelings for him but I don't know if I'm ready to tell him I love him. I still talk to other guys and he gets mad but when he talks to other girls it's different because in his words "he don't love these h o e s" 🥴. I'm just trying to get an outside perspective.

So you act like a couple, have sex like a couple, and he tells you he loves you? Yeah, I would say it’s dating. But these days it isn’t safe to assume anything. It’s time to have a conversation with him and tell him you want clarity about what you are to each other, if you are exclusive, monogamous, etc. And you can tell him you love him if you love him. He’s already said the same to you.

This is more than just dating. The only thing that is missing is you both are not exclusive.

You're possessive friends with benefits. That's all.

Sure I guess but if your still talking with other people I would call it casual dating
