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).

Recreational Dating

When a person dates lots of people just for fun and doesn't see them as boyfriend/husband or girlfriend/wife material and often doesn't even feel any attraction to the people they are dating.

Person 1) Wow, didn't we just see Tiffany at the mall yesterday with Josh? Why is she at the movies with Andrew when she specifically said she didn't like him?

Person 2) Well... She's into Recreational Dating.
