Undefined. Noncommittal. Nonjudgmental. A situationship is the blurry middle ground between friendship and a romantic relationship. There are no labels, and both parties are technically allowed to see other people.
A situationship is appealing because it appears to offer all the benefits of a relationship with none of the responsibility. You can have sex or go out to dinner, but never send a single “good morning” text. You can meet a cute guy at the bar and never once tell him you are in a committed relationship. That is the marketable trait of the whole affair: It is always temporary and never exclusive.
