Is there a term in Chinese that works for 'seeing each other' or to date casually?
Is there a term in Chinese that works for 'seeing each other'. By seeing each other I mean in a romantic sense but not as serious as dating. Casually dating you could say.
For example; How are things going with that guy you met? You two dating now? Hmmm not really, just seeing each other, working out if we like each other, seeing how things go.
Thank you.

I would say there is hardly such term as “seeing each other" in Chinese. I think we probably find other expressions to indicate various situations when the two people haven't been totally in a relationship, it depends on how the person judge the relation. Such as 暧昧, which typically expresses a vague feeling between potential couples, or 约约看(date and see if it goes well). 约会 means "dating", which sounds more romantic, but not so serious as "dating" in English, you could say it when two people are just seeing each other and meeting alone.
