What is situationship vs fwb?

Situationship and FWB (Friends with Benefits) are both casual relationships, however, there are some differences between the two:

Situationship:

A situation ship is a type of relationship where two people are romantically involved but not committed to each other. It is usually a casual relationship where a couple spends time together and experiences the emotional benefits of a romantic relationship without any title.

The difference between a relationship and a situationship is that there is no long-term commitment. Situationships tend to be more about the present moment, rather than planning a future together. The downside is that there is no security, exclusivity or clear boundaries in a situationship. It can also be challenging for people who want to be in a committed relationship because they may feel frustrated and confused about the purpose of the situationship.

Friends with Benefits:

Friends with benefits (FWB) is a type of sexual relationship where both partners agree to have sex without being emotionally involved. The emphasis is on a physical connection rather than an emotional one.

The main difference between a situationship and FWB is that there is no romance in an FWB relationship. The relationship is purely based on sex without any emotional connection. Communication and clear boundaries are crucial in an FWB relationship because there is a risk of one person developing feelings.

In summary, situationships tend to be more emotionally driven, where two people are romantic without a commitment, and FWB relationships tend to be purely physical without romance.
