A casual date refers to a social meeting between two individuals, usually with romantic or sexual intentions. It is an informal and relaxed outing that does not necessarily lead to a long-term commitment. The purpose of a casual date can vary from simply getting to know each other better, sharing interests or experiences, to exploring physical attraction and potential for a more serious relationship. Casual dates are often arranged spontaneously without much planning and can take place in various settings such as coffee shops, restaurants, parks, or movies, among others.
