You're dating someone you're crazy about, but nothing's official -- should you change your relationship status on MySpace, Facebook, and Ning?
This is a delicate process with several different stages. First off, when you start dating exclusively, you might consider removing the single status from your profile out of respect for what you've got going. Warning: doing this will cause a pileup of curious pals ("Woo-woo!" "Who is he/she?" etc.), so be sure to delete the move from your newsfeed. Once you and your sweetie move into boyfriend-girlfriend territory, it's time to shift (preferably in sync) to "In a relationship."
Finally, you may choose to link your profiles, which involves one of your sending an invitation to the other, much like a friend request. This is best reserved for solid relationships -- if you're in the breakup/makeup cycle, it's smarter to reveal as little of this as possible to the coworkers and cousins keeping their eyes on your bidness.
