The phrase "Is she really going out with him?" appears primarily as the title of a popular 1978 song by Joe Jackson, which humorously comments on women dating unattractive men. It also is the title of a recent romantic comedy book by Sophie Cousens, released in 2025, about a recently divorced woman navigating dating life again with humorous and heartfelt events. There is no direct factual answer applicable to a real-life person or situation from these sources, as the phrase is more commonly used in pop culture contexts like these works. If asking about a particular person or relationship, additional specifics would be needed to determine the truth of the question. Otherwise, "Is she really going out with him?" is known mainly as a cultural reference from music and romantic fiction.
