the difference between going on dates and dating

1) going on dates is self explanatory. you've hung out alone on purpose. dating is when you're not going on dates with anyone else, and ***THE GUY HAS ASKED THE GIRL TO BE HIS GIRLFRIEND.*** (or the girl has asked to be his girlfriend, or they decided amongst themselves that they were officially "dating"/"going out"; etc.)

2) dating is facebook official. ...most of the time.

Examples:
1)
Girl:"So I went on a date with Tom this weekend."
Girl's friend:"So are you dating him now?"
Girl:"No, he only asked me to go to the movies."
Girl's friend:"Do you think he'll ask you to be his girlfriend?"
Girl:"Probably not, he's a boy, so he probably doesn't know the difference between going on dates and dating, and thinks that one date means we're dating. I better set him straight."

2)
SMART BOY:"I went on another date with Lisa last night, it was really great. I think I'm gonna ask her to be my girlfriend tomorrow."
DUMB BOY:"Wait I thought you guys were dating?"
SMART BOY:"No, we've been on a couple dates, but we're not official."

3)
Boy:"Will you go out with me?
Girl:"On a date? Or dating?"
Boy:"Uhhh..."

dofflin

Dofflin music (sometimes called future bass, downtempo, chill trap) is a combination of electronic and hip-hop beats, usually in the 50-80BPM tempo range, with influences from early 2000's R&B, dreamy synths, 808 drums and snares, nostalgic samples from early video game scores and sounds, and overall a fusion of the many different influences and styles.

Have you heard that new style of music called dofflin? Totally takes me back to my childhood.

DofE Hangover

A term used to describe the one or two days after one participates in a Duke of Edinburgh expedition. It is called so because this period will be spend mostly with long lies in bed and hours of watching TV due to the inability to walk because of sore feet and shoulders etc. One may also avoid any contact with the outdoors and eat loads of takeaways to make up for the crap food they had to eat up in the hills.

Person 1: Hey are you going into town tomorrow?

Person 2: Sorry I can't. I have a DofE hangover I look hideous and I can barely walk.

Person 1: Oh ok then, I'm so sorry for you. *silence*
