Can a situationship turn into just friendship?

Yes…


Until one or both parties start dating again


There will be undeniable drama especially if the new partner learns that one of the friends you see often is someone you used to shag


Its ok to end things on a good term
But once you ring the bell of sex you can’t unring it and pretend to be platonic friends

Does "situationship" mean a relationship that is so screwed up that you are embarrassed to actually explain it to anyone?

[Anonymous]

The whole idea of F. buddies you’re supposed to be friends that just got comfortable with one another. That’s how it kinda normally is. And when it dissolves or evaporates, then you’re just left with a friendship, but you just have to talk it over with whoever you’re with

[Asker]

oh we're not f. buddies we didn't get to that, and i was the one who ditched him

[Opinion Owner]

Well, congratulations no strings. You’re good if you want to pursue a relationship or friendship, then you can find some common ground but if you don’t, what’s the point

[kylee2437]

I saw the more specific details you gave in the comments, and honestly he’s not seeking a friendship. He is seeing if he is still welcome in your life, with a chance of pushing further than where he got before (sex)

My mission here on GAG is all about helping you make sense of relationships and sprinkle a little charm into your day. Situationships are like a rollercoaster ride with no clear destination. Turning that into a friendship? It's possible! Just ensure both hearts are on the same page 🎢. Set boundaries, focus on platonic vibes, and watch for any lingering feelings. With open hearts and communication, it can be a smooth transition! Keep your heart light, and remember, some things take time. 🌟💖

[mandyfire98]

Yeah, I'm still friends with a couple of old situationships.

[PeachyPie93]

It can.. but why would you want to? You were an option and he ditched you. Why would you think he won't do it again when another girl he is interested comes along.

[Asker]

oh, i was actually the one who ditched him cause I was afraid to commit, I apologized and he wanted to start off as friends this time.

[PeachyPie93]

Oh then yeah you can then, since you were the issue.

[Asker]

hahaha thanks

[ProbablyClueless]

The real question is why would you even want that to happen? Most people treat their situationships worse than wet dog diarrhea. The ones who don't are already genuine friends with their situationships.

[ihateTaylorSwift]

is that like a new term
for "it's complicated" lol

[Nikki1989]

Of course, and vice versa. Don't overthink it, more men are right around the corner.

[Christian_Cartier]

"more men are right around the corner."

This is such a gross mentality; this is why making relationships so damn impossible these days. The illusion of unlimited choice. If you treat people like they are disposable, people will always treat you the same.

They can also then sour 😅 so I just, don't. re-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

[paledreams]

And that goes for any "relationship" lol 😆

[justabuddy]

Yes, it has happened but it's very rare and not something you should expect.

[kaucky1]

No strings is not getting attached just fuck not speak

[moneymagnet24]

Yes ma'am my situationship is my best friend now

[jojouzumaki]

what’s does situationship means?

[Christian_Cartier]

Usually it means a woman who is having sex with a guy she hasn't committed to because she doesn't want to feel lonely or admit that she's actually single. It sounds like she's using the term a little differently here, though. Maybe just for the idea of potential romance.

[jojouzumaki]

Thank you for taking time to explain.

My apologies to the asker. I couldn’t be helpful. though, I’ll do my research and ask some friends and would share once i have. once again my apologies.

[CarolinaGirl5]

No! He doesn't like you

[Sonora81]

What is a "situationship?"

[Unap0logetic_]

You’re doing relationship things while being “friends” basically.

[Sonora81]

@Unap0logetic_ Isn't that dating.

[Unap0logetic_]

Dating is supposed to intended to see where things go… like an interview.. a situationship is a friends with benefits but more messy.. it’s more like a relationship, you do all of the relationship things but with the “friend” title.. some can even say, they’re not really friends they’re just hanging out.

[Sonora81]

@Unap0logetic_ That sounds exhausting.

[Unap0logetic_]

It’s very exhausting and toxic. It’s worse than an actual bad relationship. lol

[Sonora81]

@Unap0logetic_ It sounds like it!

[DtMe89]

If it's toxic

[Ironic_Method]

Yes, I've done it.

[Kayleigh2005]

Nope

[In_Trance]

You wish

[Anonymous]

It can

[vj0090]

Can u b specific

[Asker]

i started chatting a guy again who flirted with me years ago, and now im confused since he doesn't want our chats to end, i guess he just wants my company now?

[Christian_Cartier]

No. He wants to see if you have realized the ways you missed out by not getting with him the first time.
