History

Hi,

If person A has a history with person B, can it mean they had a romantic relationship before but not any more now?

If so, is there any difference between we has a history and we used to date and we were in a relationship?

Thank you very much for your reply.

Hi CJ,

Is there any subtle difference between 'used to date' and 'were in a relationship'?

If two people used to date, can it mean that they didn't go steady, either of them could also date another one and were in a relationship means they go steady?

Could you please give me an example of we have a history when it means we are still in a relationship now?

Thank you ver

Hi CJ,

Is it correct that we can't tell if they go steady or not when they are dating each other or in a relationship with each other?

Thank you very much.

Hi, CJ,

Does are you seeing someone mean the same as are you dating someone or mean the same as are you in a relationship with someone?

Thank you very much.
