What does "seeing someone" mean? (Page 2)

Question

I'm a bit confused, since I'm new to dating. I've been dating this guy for a little over 2 months now that I met on OKC back in February. We have been moving pretty slowly overall, but recently he has told me that I'm special to him, that he really likes me, and that he still can't believe I'm real (he's waiting to wake up and realize it was a dream, type deal). He texts me everyday, and told me that I'm one of the few people he talks to since he doesn't have many friends. It's taking a while, but we're both finally starting to get comfortable with one another. Initially all of our dates were in public, but both of us are very introverted so at this point we usually just hang out at my house and watch movies/spend the day together. If we do go do something, it's usually something that he knows that I enjoy. He has told me that he's afraid that I'll get sick of him or that he'll do something wrong and scare me off. Anyway, he's leaving to go to school for about 3 months, and he asked me if we were going to keep seeing each other when he got back. He's pretty cuddly/affectionate with me (took about a month to get to that point) and he wants to keep in touch in the meantime. Also, he has used "our relationship" to describe us before...

Yea, sounds like you too are going from dating to relationship. Best to talk to him about it and make things clear for both of you.

To me: Dating someone means you and that person go on dates.  Seeing someone means you are in a relationship.

I believe that's another way of saying the dating phase? As in before you're in a committed boyfriend and girlfriend relationship.

I mean you guys made an agreement right? Hey you can always choose to back off it if the agreement was not clear.

I would say that it means dating (aka going out with them), not necessarily sex.

You view them with your eyes. *Crickets chirping*
Okay, in all seriousness it’s when your dating someone, but you don’t call each other boyfriend and girlfriend yet, at least that’s what it is to me.

yeaaaaahboi · Answer

Just means going out, getting to know each other, making out

syncheart · Answer

To me: Seeing someone means you are in a relationship with them. So you are seeing them on a regular basis.

MostlySquishy · Answer

It is usually considered that seeing someone is akin to dating. However I would talk to him to clarify things since you are uncertain.

Shaun · Answer

Yes. He's telling you that the two of you are exclusive and he expects you to get the word out.

Anonymous · Answer

Talking to someone and going on dates, but not exclusive/in a relationship yet.

StephenCF · Answer

Sounds like the verge of a relationship. It’s only a matter of either of you declaring it officially

smahala1991 · Answer

Seeing someone to me means that we are not official yet, but it is possible

Anonymous · Answer

seeing someone to me is the same as saying I have a man.  I'm committed to him and that's that (:

Anonymous · Answer

Omg. Stop playing with the man and just be his girlfriend already.
