That\'s when you are not in a relationship, and not just hooking up either.

That's when you are not in a relationship, and not just hooking up either.
Did you all ever know that there is a placebo effect in every relationship? Yes, it does exist, albeit with a fancy name: SITUATIONSHIP. But what is it? Well, it's what happens to you or what you are in when you are in that terrible grey area between a hook up and a relationship.
It's just like a placebo, where it might feel like a relationship at times but there are boundaries and limited expectations out of this association. You are not quiet dating this person but spending a lot of time with him/ her. But you are not just hooking up either. Sounds familiar doesn't it? We've all been there at some point in our lives. It's actually a new equivalent of the its complicated status.
A sitiationship can both be mighty convenient of tragically confusing. It's convenient for those who run miles away from any commitment, and are clear about what you want from the sitiationship being with each other without any promise of future together. But it's tragic for those who want more out of this conundrum of a situation, and desperately want clarity of these fuzzy boundaries that have already been set, unfortunately.
Now the situations Joo can stem from two grey areas. The first being the obvious: we like each other, so let's just spend sometime together and see where this goes.
And the second scenario could arise from a long term relationship breakup, where the comfort level is so high that the two people in question spend a lot of time with each other but don't really get back into a relationship. Both case are quite similar in the sense that there are no labels used for such an association. Also, both have a comfort factor, sans dependency, and ofcourse , lots of no strings attracted sex.

Free falling in a situationship can be misleading at times. They can seem real and really play on your hopes, to find the love of your life. They instill some sort of vague faith with believable assumptions that one day the situationship will turn into something official. The fact that you really can't have the talk with someone you are just hanging out with is difficult to deal with.

Situationships are vague, ambiguous and confusing place to be in. It can work in some of your favour if you have all the lines defined. However defined lines are a problem when it comes to matters of the heart.
You never know when you cross over to the other side and start expecting more. Other than that, if you find yourself in a situationship, enjoy no strings attached, commitment free, label less ride
