Have you ever dated someone you didn't actually like at all?

I can kind of understand that. Maybe he liked you and you wanted some romance, maybe you were even looking for a way to move on from the last bad relationship, but did you really dislike the guy when you first went on the date or was that maybe something that developed over time?

yes, sometimes you need to date someone because you were "forced" by your peers, your family, or any relatives. so out of respect, you need to date some of them as not to disappoint or hurt their feelings. however, there are instances when you will fall in love with those dates later on. you really can't tell.

Family I can kind of understand but thats normally an arranged marriage type thing in certain cultures. That's a really good point because I wan't even thinking of that aspect of things. Peers I find a little more difficult, I mean I guess your friends could set you up with someone in theory and you might feel they made a lot of effort to arrange it or something? I'm not sure. I mean dating someone you don't like because of some other kind of pressure from your peers seems a little odd to me but I'm still getting my whole head around the peer pressure thing. It interests me a lot.

I've never done so, cause if I don't like the person, I usually try to make it clear in the very beginning, so I won't give her vain hope, so it's easier to let go for both of us.

Yes if you really don't like someone in that way, I imagine that would become clear quite quickly after meeting someone.
