When is it normal to date sb you seem to like?
As I posted in another thread I don't believe I've ever actually felt love for someone before, even though I'm 18. However, recently there are some girls who have caught my attention. I like them, they are nice, fun, not ugly and we have some things in common. My friends have all had different relationships, but I can't tell to what extent real 'love' was involved in this. What I think I can tell is that, were I to ask the girl out etc, and she would say no (which she probably wouldnt), I would be able to live with that. Is that any indicator? What do people mean when they say 'I love you'? Do people need to love each other to be girlfriend/boyfriend, or is it normal to be in that relationship with just liking each other and treating each other right?
Besides, what's the whole difference between 'dating', 'going out', 'being girlfriend/bf', etc?
