Date Shanghai

A date shanghai is when a person unwittingly goes on a date...whether the person wants to date the other person or not.

'To shanghai' is a term derived from the 1850s when sailing crews were abducted. It is a verb that has expanded to mean to kidnap.

A date shanghai is essentially a surprise (unwanted) date.

"On my last night in town he date shanghaied me! I first realized it was a date, not after the movie in his room or the whiskey shots, but when we were walking to a jazz club. When I invited some people to join us, his face fell a bit. (they didn't join us, so we spent the evening together).

default date

a date with someone you know and are comfortable with but yet you really have no attraction with and is someone you go out with when you have no one else to go with.

I took Robin, my default date to the club Saturday night as I couldnt find a real date for the evening.

silent date

When two people go out and agree not to say a word to each other and as few words to other people as possible especially when your date is in ear shot. The goal is to communicate non verbally with lots of eye contact, body language, and physical contact. Also no phones allowed.

We went on a silent date and I've never felt so close and in-tune with someone like that before.
