Girldate 

The relationship you may have with someone when it's not official, you're doing a trial run of an actual relationship. There's no real expectations other than the ones chosen by free will, and it's kept private from family and friends, making it easier and cleaner if it should come to an abrupt end.
Should only be monogamous if the intent of the future is a monogamous relationship. Otherwise poly / open is fine.

She is his girldate for prom.
