Cultural Note
Frequentarsi describes the undefined stage between meeting someone and being officially together. It's the Italian version of 'talking' or 'seeing each other.' Unlike formal dating, it implies no commitment and carries an air of pleasant ambiguity that Italians often enjoy maintaining for longer than Anglophones might expect.
