What to Do When You’re in a Situationship — Navigating the Space Between Wanting and Waiting
Being in a situationship is a strange emotional limbo. It’s not a relationship, but it’s not casual. It’s intimate, but not defined. You’re close, but never secure. You keep telling people you’re “seeing someone,” even though you can’t explain what exactly you’re seeing. You’re not being lied to, yet you never quite know the truth. You feel single in public, attached in private, confident one day, disposable the next. This is the quiet ache of a situationship: loving someone with no guarantee they’ll love you with both feet on the ground.
