the awkward stage of a relationship where the two individuals are spending a lot of time together but have not actually admitted that they are dating.

it is not necessarily a desirable state to be in.

can also be used to describe two friends of the opposite s-x who spend all their time together but who are not actually dating but may as well be. should not be confused with friends with benefits.

pre-dating is when someone who is in a relationship that they antic-p-te will end shortly begins meeting up with other people of romantic interest on date-like encounters.

this is usually done in order to gauge levels of mutual attraction and put out feelers of interest before breaking off the existing relationship in order to hasten the transition from being in a couple to dating new people.

pre-dating can be distinguished from traditional infidelity because it involves identifying areas of romantic tension to follow-up on in the future rather than engaging in a physical or emotional affair in the present. the practice involves deceiving a person’s existing partner, however, and many people see it as nothing but straight-forward cheating.
since me and my girlfriend are probably breaking up when she moves overseas next month, i thought i’d do a bit of pre-dating and see what else is out there.
