Green Dating

Green dating is the act of recycling an old flame. This can be due to a dry spell or the amount of time since the relationship ended has been enough that the reason for the breakup doesn’t seem as important/terrible. Therefore you reduce you time on the market, reuse an ex-lover and recycle them into a good-enough-for-now option...until something better comes along.

Kerry: So, I heard you are dating John again…I thought you said you couldn’t stand him

Betsy: Yeah, but I figure he can’t be as bad as I remember, and since I don't have any decent new prospects I have resorted to green dating to get me through the cold winter!

Gateway Date

When a guy hangs out with a girl who is in a relationship in hopes that when or if they break up, she comes to him.

Buddy: I'm going on a gateway date with this girl tonight.
Guy: Oh yeah? So she has a boyfriend?
Buddy: Yeah, but you know she doesn't talk about him at all. I'm pretty sure that means I can slay.
Guy: Alright good luck buddy. Don't get your ass kicked.

Donut date

a chat with a random person from your Slack workspace after you two have been matched by the Donut bot on Slack

On one of my Donut dates I met someone working on a different component of the same project, so we decided to do an end-to-end demo to highlight the work our two teams are doing. It was a huge hit, and it wouldn't have happened without Donut.
