> Yeah we were dating for like a week or less

The point being missed is that there is a vast difference between knowing someone casually for a long time and then suddenly upping the level of intimacy that comes with dating, even when so brief.

As noted in one of the articles, here is a hierarchy of intimacy between people:

1. Casual acquaintances
2. Casual friends
3. Close friends
4. Best friend
5. Loving a friend
6. Being "In Love" with another
