The Ongoing Trend of “Situationships”

A situationship is a relationship that includes no commitment. The couple might spend time together, do romantic things together, and even be intimate with each other, but still wouldn’t commit to each other and might also deny on being called a couple. They go along with an “it’s complicated” tag. 

A situationship involves everything that comes under a relationship but not commitment. These are basically 2 people who like each other but are not sure about each other or have commitment issues, or maybe are bound by any situation. 

How to tell if you are in a situationship?

Here are some pointers that denote that you are in a situationship;

  • You both are attached to each other and talk to each other every day, but still, you are not sure that where you stand in that person’s life
  • There is someone else or multiple others involved 
  • You are not sure about each other 
  • There is no consistency 
  • Things are done only as per convenience
  • There is no seriousness or future planning and you mostly dirty talk

Pros of a situationship

The major advantage of a situationship is that you get to do things your way. You are not burdened by the responsibilities and emotions of any other person. You are a free bird and can still keep on exploring. 

Cons of a situationship 

The drawback of a situationship is that one person might have much more and different expectations from the other. Throughout the whole situationship, a person might actually fall in love with the other and when the same feeling is not reciprocated, it can disrupt the mental health of both in some or the other way.
