The definition of Dating states that Dating is an "act of going out on dates to socialize". The socializing aspect of dating is still intact, but the methods for engaging in the activity have changed over the years. There are two main categories of dating, Offline Dating and Online Dating.

This is the traditional method, whereby one person "goes out" with a potential lover using a process that involves scheduled, usually exclusive, meetings of two people with mutuial interests in one another.. This type of dating can be broken down to, but not limited to, additional types of offline dating like regular dates, double dates, group dates, blind dates and long distance dates.

For those not aware, online dating is possible! Breaking out of tradition, online dating is a way for people to meet and socialize with potential lovers on specifically targeted websites.

Such websites, providing a service, generally allow people to share personal information by creating online profiles, search for other individuals using criteria such as age range, gender and location. Most sites offer additional services, such as webcam dating, online chat, and message boards.
