Recreational Dating

When a person dates lots of people just for fun and doesn't see them as boyfriend/husband or girlfriend/wife material and often doesn't even feel any attraction to the people they are dating.

Person 1) Wow, didn't we just see Tiffany at the mall yesterday with Josh? Why is she at the movies with Andrew when she specifically said she didn't like him?

Person 2) Well... She's into Recreational Dating.
