The epitome of people that should not be together but in actuality are. Example: Taryn and Cassandra.
The only reason that they ended up married was because of the old adage opposites attract. They thought they'd give it a go, ignoring their cataclysmic differences.

A state of hotness derived solely from one's occupation, or role in a situation. The situationally attractive individual is typically unattractive, or at least just average, in normal circumstances.
Person 1: "I have a really hot TA for CS this semester."
*few weeks later*
Person 1: "Nevermind, it's just situational attractiveness."
Person 2: "Oh, like he's only attractive because he's a TA?"
Other examples: female bartender, professors, RA's, baristas
