Asking a girl on a date might include a night at the movies, accompanying her to a dance or spending time with her at a party.Until either of you broaches the subject of dating exclusively, you can also see other people.Part of me feels there's no difference since we act like BF/GF; however, there seems to be a distinction made during conversations with my....well, the guy I'm dating exclusively.We've been exclusive since the beginning (2 months ).You might think he needs you to love football and chicken wings, look like a supermodel, and spend every waking moment with him. While we dated, we wanted to meet each other's needs while at the same time fight to maintain a relationship that honored God.Let's just say that the struggle to understand each other's needs was real.

As I said, a distinction is made occasionally when we talk. Talk to your boyfriend to get things squared away!!!

One of the first dating challenges is the simple matter of determining whether the relationship is exclusive.
