Get the Date mug.Related Words
A Dategagement is defined as a mix of dating and an engagement, having aspects of both. Both people have agreed to date in the coming future but are yet to officially ask each other out, therefore making their current relationship status a "dategagement". A dategagement has much more meaning than a situationship, as you both have agreed to commit to each other, but just want the moment you guys make it official to be special instead of something like a corny late-night text.
