Where single guy and single girl, who don't normally spend time alone together, agree to "hang out" and do something fun together for the first time, yet both carefully avoid the word "date". Whether it was in fact a date will be determined only after the fact, once they see how it goes. Until then, the event is a strange quantum superposition, simultaneously both date and non-date. This allows both parties to avoid potential embarrassment.
It could be a date or it could be just a hang out, we won't know till it's over. It's a Schrödinger's Date.

Get the Datashizzle mug.Related Words
Two people getting together for an activity when the possibility of romance between them has been broached but not ruled out. Since the exploration of romance is the purpose of a date, merely asking someone out on a date is sufficient to broach the subject. Dates may or not continue once a couple have entered into a romantic relationship. The word "date" may be used to identify a get together between two people not romantically involved, but this usage is meant to convey irony, since such a meeting is not a date in the true sense of the word.
Yeah, Mike and I went on a date last night. He's cute, but I'm not sure if I want to get involved with him or not.
