Situationship
Stable๐UniversalDefinition
A romantic relationship that's undefined โ more than friends but not officially dating. Both people know what's going on but nobody wants to have 'the talk.'
Translation for Parents
It's when your kid is clearly dating someone but insists they're 'not dating.' They hang out constantly, text 24/7, but neither will call it a relationship. It's exactly as confusing as it sounds. Don't ask them to define it; they can't.
Examples
โWe're not dating, it's just a situationshipโ
โWe're romantically involved but haven't defined the relationshipโ
โSituationships are worse than breakups frโ
โUndefined relationships hurt more than actual breakups, honestlyโ
Cringe Score
Safe to use
This is a genuinely useful word. You probably had a situationship in college โ you just didn't have a name for it.
