When a girl and a boy or girl and girl or boy and boy start liking each other and they start texting. (This usually only happens in middle or elementary school the two will text for hours and hours. Once they see each other in school the most they will ever do is make eye contact. That’s it. After a couple of days of texting they might plan to go out on a date. They will offen bring a friend or two with them or they will call it a “double date”. They might talk to their actual date but most of the time they will just talk to there friend or be on their phone the whole time. Their relationship continues but really all they are doing is texting each other.
Melissa: Oh Carmen did you hear that Jamie and Austin like each other?
Carmen: Have they been out on a date yet?
Melissa: No they haven’t even talked in person yet. All they do is text each other
Carmen: I see. It’s another one of those “text relationships”

1) Being in a relationship where one or both parties prefer text messaging over talking on the phone or in person, unsurprisingly causing 99% of their problems, as at least one person in the relationship is too stupid to understand that text messages arrive/send out of order if at all.
2) A relationship that doesn't go very far; one so short or shallowly lived it can be replayed with little difficulty over text messaging. A final summation used to describe a waste of time.
Usually results in a text message breakup.

Test Message Relationship. When you have a relationship with someone only through texting. You text a lot, but never talk on the phone or meet out in person. It is a friend you have via text messaging and a way of getting attention from someone.
We are in a TMR - Text Message Relationship. I have been TMRing for 6 months. I wonder if we will ever meet up.
I sent a TMR to him when I got home from the bar. We TMRed for an hour.
