In the logical sense it does, however typically the term "dating" connotes a commitment to the relationship that is a a bit deeper than simply going on a single date. I think it's the modern equivalent of "going steady".
- bravura 17y agoI would argue that "dating" means that we go on dates together (present tense being important here). But a lot of people are "dating" before they have a specific conversation about exclusitivity.
- TrevorJ 17y agoThat's the difference between the literal meaning of the word and the implied meaning I think.
