Situationship vs. Friends with Benefits (FWB)

While both situationships and friends with benefits relationships lack the commitment and labels of a traditional romantic relationship, they differ in key aspects:

• Definition: A situationship is typically an undefined romantic relationship, where the individuals act like a couple but haven't explicitly defined the relationship's parameters or future. Friends with benefits is a defined friendship which has sexual benefits.

• Emotional Involvement: Situationships often involve a greater degree of emotional ambiguity and uncertainty. One or both parties may harbor unspoken romantic feelings or hopes for something more, leading to potential emotional distress. Friends with benefits relationships typically prioritize maintaining a platonic friendship and minimizing emotional attachments beyond the physical aspect.

• Communication: Situationships may lack open and honest communication about expectations and boundaries, creating confusion and misunderstandings. Friends with benefits arrangements require clear and upfront communication about rules, boundaries, and the expectation of no exclusive romantic commitment.

• Future Expectations: In situationships, the future of the relationship is uncertain and often unaddressed, potentially causing anxiety and frustration. In friends with benefits relationships, both parties are typically aligned on the understanding that the relationship is casual and not intended to evolve into something more serious. There are no Future Expectations

• Relationship Definition: Relationship definition is not a subject on which a couple agrees on. Lack of relationship definition is the key element of a situationship.

• Clarity: Clarity is important for a FWB to work.
