Evolution of a relationship?

What normally the time in which you can classify dating someone, and then to be your girlfriend?

what time frame or other metrics would be required?
eg number of dates, time seeing, number of family/friends met etc

I am sorta half seeing someone (1 sorta formal date and other times meeting up at parties/other social functions) and i was introduced as a boyfriend? at the time i was thinking wtf and still am, as i thought we were sorta friends, and then some, only seeing each other a few times now, but this kinda shocked me.

i talked about it for a bit, but generally wanted to change the subject cause i hadn't thought of the idea as such, even though it's normally on my mind anyway.

on the flipside, i hvae a friend who started seeing someone recently as well, just casual stuff, and he claims to have a girlfriend now. And he's saying girlfriend this, girlfriend that a lot.

Seems the label of a significant opther, even though it may not really or fully be there is somtimes comforting for people?

anyway, i was just scared for the moment, but maybe things will change?

although what about your own experience as a relationship forms from casual to more formal things (namely no cheating and commitment to one another)?
in other words, when to start using grilfriend and boyfriend?
