Get the Date Stompmug. "cave dating", "cave dater" or "dating in a cave" is a term meaning that you and your circle of friends tend to date people that are all in another circle of friends. It becomes as though you cannot escape dating this same other circle of friends...like a cave that you cannot find an exit to. Each friend seems to be connected to another friend...who's connected to another friend...and it never ends.
Often it feels like you are dating the same person over and over again and is extremely difficult to get out of. Unless you devastatingly break up with a native (one of the persons in the other circle of friends) in which case, no natives can touch you and you are exiled from the cave. Until you find a new cave...

Mike, Cory, Stephen, and Greg are all friends. Kelsey, Natalie, and I were each dating one of them. When Natalie and Cory broke up, she started dating Stephen. We're all going to be cave dating them for a long time.
Bree: "Kyle asked me out last night."
Gabby: "You need to get out of that cave, honey"
Bree: "I know, I've been cave dating this whole year."

Get the cave dating mug. When two people are dating, but it is not acknowledged as real dating, instead they go on dates, but say they are just friends.
There are two main scenarios to this phenomenon. One: The first dater is only interested in the other person as a friend. Thus to them, they are only hanging out with a friend. The other 'dater' is actually interested in the other person, but knows that the person is only interested in them as a friend...at least at that moment. So while they are really on a date, it is officially called ' hanging out with a friend'.
Two: Both people are interested in each other, but don't know how the other one feels. So they go on dates, but call it just 'hanging out with a friend'.

Get the Sneak Datedmug. Time period which occurs before a couple is officially dating. This span of time includes a significant amount of hanging out (one on one or in a group), flirting, and usually arouses suspicion amongst friends of the two parties. Also see talking.

Get the sticky datemug. by Joe Jacobs December 15, 2004
Get the J-datemug. Similar to a “playdate”, only with all guys. This shameful act can be observed in a suburban neighborhood when husbands all meet on one neighbors swing-set accompanied by their children to hang out and speak amongst themselves. Most likely each of them have been sent out of their homes with their kids inbound because their overworked stay-at-home mommy wives needed some “me time” to recover from the harsh reality of their disappointing happily-ever-after’s. Of course, topics of discussion between these pussy-whooped, sad excuses for men would never include anything like: sports, movies, music, tits, cars, or anything else normal men talk about….and worst of all, no alcoholic beverages are consumed by any of them. Anyone involved in this act can only count the minutes until Monday morning comes, and they are able to return to their comfy cubicles so that they can work 10 hours a day in the corporate prison that offers the only escape from serving the lifetime sentence from their marriage.
