The Brief: A situationship is an undefined romantic relationship.

A situationship is different than a FWB relationship or a serious romantic one. It’s generally considered to be more serious than just hooking up, but less serious than a committed romantic relationship. Sometimes called “a thing,” situationships often involve most of the things that a traditional romantic relationship would, without some of the benefits and/or formalities.
