Situationship

Definition

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

Brainrot:

โ€œWe're not dating, it's just a situationshipโ€

English:

โ€œWe're romantically involved but haven't defined the relationshipโ€

Brainrot:

โ€œSituationships are worse than breakups frโ€

English:

โ€œUndefined relationships hurt more than actual breakups, honestlyโ€

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.
