Question Posted Wednesday February 25 2009, 3:53 pm
Hi!
Why do people think you need to ask someone or be asked "Do you want to go out with me?" or "Will you go out with me?" Can you just start going out with someone, or is it not official if you don't or are not asked? My ex-boyfriend and I decided that we were just going out, but I've heard that you can't go out unless someone asks or you ask someone, is that true?
Oh, and is saying "I really like you" the same as asking someone out? Or is it when both you and the person you're dating think your going out?
I'm sorry this is kind of confusing.
Thank you very much.

THINKPOSITIVE7 answered Friday February 27 2009, 1:16 pm: Hello,you should never assume you are just going out with somoeone unless the feelings are mutual,because someone can say they really like you and you might not like them as much and you dont want to be in a relationship with them. A relationship is a serious step and if you want to be in one then both you and your partner should feel the same way. If you are unable to portray these emotions of wanting to be in a relationship to your partner then maybe you arent ready to be in a relationship because communication is important. Usually when it comes to a realtionship someone asks or the two of you sit down and have a heart to heart conversation about the way you feel for eachother and if it feels right then you can be in that relationship.But remember you dont want to be in a relationship with just anyone so just take your time and find that right person because a relationship is a big step and you dont want to waist it on just anyone...I hope this helped and if you have any further questions I would love to be of aid to you.If I was not detailed enough or you want more information on this topic you can always send me a private message and I will get back to you as soon as possible..The best of luck to you!!

I wouldn't just assume that someone saying they really like you means that you're dating. You don't want to freak them out if that wasn't their intention. If you're not sure, just say "are we dating?". [ Trauma's advice column | Ask Trauma A Question ]
