We all know what a relationship means. But situationship is when you're in a situational relationship. It's when two individuals get stuck in a situation which arises from their past breakup or a friendship fallout. It's when you get into a relationship with someone without actually falling in love with them. Basically, you need that person in your life only for emotional support and to lean on them when things aren't going all too well in your life. A sitautionship sure involves feelings and expectations as well as intimacy, but it's got nothing to do with the old school relationship. This relationship doesn't have a tag or commitment. This one is where any or both the partners can walk out if they find someone else they would want to commit to at any given point in life. It's more about the situation and the need to have someone's attention instead of plain and pure love. A situationship is where there's a big emotional risk as it damages both the people in ways more than one. And so, it is very crucial to spot the signs and know if you're in a similar situation. If so, get yourself out of it as soon as possible.
- You don't bother to text or call each other as much. There's no communication like normal couples do. You rather only text each other to make a plan.
- You hardly or never go out on an actual date. You spend most of the time indoors or simply like spending time inside the house.
- You both don't like getting too involved in each other's friends circle. You'd rather not meet people from each other's friends groups since you'd not have anything to talk about in front of them. Instead, you like to call each other and also act like friends.
- You don't do any lovey-dovey things that typical couples do while they're in a relationship. You never click pictures together or actually go out to have fun together. You simply are together because you think it's better than being single.
If you think you're in such a relationship or are getting into one, don't get blinded with how comfortable it makes you feel. It is a situationship and it'll end when your want for the other person's attention will end. This will only ruin you both emotionally and mentally. It's a harmful kind of relationship to be in and should be absolutely avoided.
