Took out someone a bit past it (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dated

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'took out someone' is the first definition.
(took someone for a date)

'a bit past it' is the second definition.
(both can mean old or out of date)

(Other definitions for dated that I've seen before include "Archaic; took out" , "Rusty" , "Antiquated" , "square" , "Went steady" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and The Guardian.
