看美剧《老友记》S01E23中的对话：

情境：Franzblau医生问Rachel：现在有交往对象吗？言外之意，如果没有，我们俩约会看看。他用哪个词？

Dr. Franzblau: So, uh, tell me, are you currently involved with anyone?

解析：

前面介绍了6中“谈恋爱”的说法，有的是指刚开始见面约会（date, be seeing）、有的是指稳定的关系（have a relationship, go out with）、有的是指外遇（have an affair），这几种都不适合“搭讪”，所以医生果断地用了''be involved with''。
