Dating is a form of courtship, and may include any social activity undertaken by, typically, two persons with the aim of each assessing the other's suitability as a partner in an intimate relationship or as a spouse. The word refers to the act of meeting and engaging in some mutually agreed upon social activity. Traditional dating activities include entertainment or a meal.

Online dating or Internet dating is a dating system which allows individuals, couples and groups to make contact and communicate with each other over the Internet, usually with the objective of developing a personal romantic or sexual relationship. Online dating services usually provide unmoderated matchmaking over the Internet, through the use of personal computers or cell phones.

That was just the condensed version. There's always something missing when you abridge something. laugh

Dating: when 2 people get together who like sex & can somewhat tolerate each other.


Marriage is almost the same, except no sex.

Well, according to my 4 year old cousin, when you like a girl/boy, you walk up to them and say "Hi". And, if you really, really like them, you say "Hello" and then begin to date that person.
