Out of curiosity as peers and I were discussing this in the car along the way back. At what point do you move from "I'm dating someone" to "I have a boy/girlfriend"? I know it may vary from person to person but there's usually one distinguishing thing, what is it for pixie members.

I think it's at the point you both decide to be exclusive, if such a time exists. It's always a bitch when one of us decides and assumes the other feels the same way though ain't it?

I don't find that there's one defining moment. Sometimes it's decided on the first date, sometimes it takes months. Maybe when you realize you're in love?

With Fussy, it got to the point when I just needed to say, 'We've been seeing/sleeping together every weekend are we actually a couple? I'd really like to be able to call you 'boyfriend' and not just 'some guy I'm shagging''

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.

i agree with everything said here. Its that moment when you both decided that this relationship is gonna last longer than that first night. The moment you wake up next to that person and realise that you truly love that person.

Well I think it all depends on how long you have known your partner. I myself have known this girl that I am seeing now for 4 years before we got together. Obviously it was the next most logical step for us to get together and start seeing each other as a couple. It also depends on how you feel about each other as well. It varies from person to person. Put it this way, everyones intuition usually tells them so anyway.

it depends i think. whenever the both of you feel its ok to become exlusive i guess..

and what bigbear said reminded me of when i was younger.... i had just gotten out of a 3 and a half year relationship when i was 17 and was un aware that there was a difference between just dating, being a couple and friends with benefits lol (what? that guy had me sheltered from the world! besides, all my friends were loners and didnt go out much so no one was theer to inform me of that stuff) anyways, i met this guy and we hooked up and i assumed he was my bf.... so i was goin around tellin everyone we were together and all... that was embarrassing when i found out we weren't lol. *feels like a dork*

yea, since i've been single now for a couple of months i'm very much anti saying i have a boyfriend-cuz i don't anyway lol, and for lack of better words to sound presentable instead of telling my family "yeah i have a few guys on the side, i'm friends with benefits w/ them" lol I just say that I've "seen a few guys periodically,but it's nothing major". I am however starting to officially 'see' a guy, he really is awesome, won't be interested in calling him a boyfriend for a long time anyway-plus we'll see what happens, you know? So yea, I'm just sorta seeing someone lol..but I digress! I don't really say we're a couple til we both agree on the topic. :jump: yep lol that's what I was getting at

Boy you hit the nail on the head! No matter how many times I tell myself that he and I are not together and he doesn't have to answer to me at all, I still can't help but be jelous when he's with other girls, or tells me about other girls. I also can't help but feel destroyed when I realize that he doesn't want me like I want him. I don't know how I always continue to make the same mistake over and over again. Getting attached to someone is the worst thing in the world...

I think it begins when you realize you love each other. Denny says it begins when you're emotionally invested in one another (isn't that sort of what I just said?) Denny: Isn't that just like flutelady to re-state my opinion?
