Let's see, dating sims in English... there goes 90% of the chance. Now for the PS2, 0. No anime date sims for the PS2 in English. As far I know, there is no way to fan translate outside of walkthoughs and scripts, even still, it has to be pretty popular series for people to take notice and translate it.

Yes, there does seem to be some. I did a quick search online for it and I got some results. Most of what I got appeared to be hentai games, so I won't link to any of the websites...and I won't mention any of the names, since I didn't recognize any of them.

Anyway, if you do a search online you'll definitely find something. The games appeared to be purchasable on a CD-ROM for Windows.

I thought one of the Tokimeki Memorial games had been translated but I can find no evidence of it.

Like others have said, you're out of luck on that. The closest you will find outside of PC and DVD based dating sims is an old PlayStation RPG by the name of Thousand Arms that included dating simulation as a way to grow your character.

It's a fairly elusive title nowadays though, so finding a copy of it may prove to be on the difficult side.

Well, if you put that way then, the InuYasha RPG (I can't remember the name right now.) has date sim in there as well. When you go back to town, you help one of the character with whatever they are doing.

If you want a game that has dating as a second/third element I'm pretty sure Harvest Moon: Return to the Homeland has that.

Hirameki International group releases translated non-hentai dating sims on DVD. You can play them on the PS2 if you want I guess. They also release a bunch of non-hentai datings sims for the PC. For hentai datings sims I know where to find a bunch of ones for the PC that are translated but I don't think I'm allowed to link to them. You should probably be able to find those pretty easily though. *cough*google*cough*
