Help me to understand, please...

I honestly don't understand the different between "seeing someone", "dating someone", "being a lover", "being a girlfriend/boyfriend".

Are all those the same just different way to call it? Or if they're different, what's the different between them?

One friend told me once "Ok, I think I'm ready to date again." To which I replied "Are you sure? I thought you're still not over him." And he said "I'm not saying I'm ready to be in relationship, I'm just ready to date again. That's all."

And recently a guy said "I want to be your lover", and when I was stunned not knowing what to answer as I thought we just knew each other, he added "I'm not talking about boyfriend-girlfriend, or marriage, just being lovers, honeymoon forever."

I have no clue. Does anyone have any idea what these are all about and wanna share with me?

Kneenagh, nice to see you :)
I guess I have been absent for too long that I don't understand anymore hehehe so confusing that I start thinking it's better being single and content than being in relationship and lost lol
It is something you have to decide yourself saravathy. I do question myself increasingly if the headaches are really worth it. I don't have any issues with relationships, it's just not what these guys are looking for. hug
I would not even try to understand all of this. I think you should follow your on conviction. handshake

You are lucky you live where you do. Because believe me the women in Ireland don't even have a pulse
Halv0 Where are you from originally?? Your definitions of 'seeing someone' and 'dating someone' are totally flip flopped from street definitions here. LoL, mistaking them in a real world scenario in the US may result in someone's, someone suddenly pulling out a Glock 9 and ventilating your chest cause you just greatly dissed the man. This would not be good. So I am curious, where is your background that you give them those definitions??
