A volatile, hybrid relationship state characterized by high levels of lust masquerading as love. Coined to describe modern "situationships" that act like an ionic bond: intense attraction that dissolves instantly when stress or boredom is applied. The participants often go from "soulmates" to "strangers" (or enemies) once the dopamine rush fades.
"He told me he loved me on the second date, but ghosted me after we slept together."
