It's the side that isn't getting sunlight, lunar night. We often see the dark side of the moon.

From what I am led to belive, this dark side, is a half of the moon that we can't see. We have not seen it, and when the moon spins although some of the moon may be lit up with light, this dark side will remain dark.
If this is true then how is this possible?

The side of the moon we can't see from earth is properly called the
"far side" of the moon. Although it is a commonly misused term, it is incorrect to call it the dark side of the moon.
