A relationship where the partners are of different sexes and have to work across the gender divide. Gender-discordant relationships rate lower for camaraderie and higher for power disparities than gender-aligned relationships.
“If the state’s going to make me a felon just for terminating a pregnancy then I’m never risking another gender-discordant relationship again. It’s just not worth it,” Jenna said.
“I’m really glad Ken is dating David. The last time I saw him he was stuck in a gender-discordant relationship, and he was miserable. The hoops she made him jump through just to get a little sex were ridiculous.”

Get the Gender-Discordant Relationship mug.The term "some" (also known as the 'hook-up culture' in the western world) has become a popular lingo used in both the K-Pop and K-Drama scenes.
Here is a very basic understanding of being in a "some"-relationship: you have confirmed your feelings for one another but you are not officially in a relationship. You might be going through the motions of having a boyfriend/girlfriend, but you stay away from putting on labels between you and your "some"-partner.
You feel some-type-of-way for your partner but nothing too real to make it a committed relationship, yet.

Get the Some Relationship mug.Common in first relationships when one has unrealistic hopes and dreams. Typically they fall in love in a short amount of time feeling they cannot live without their other half . Attachment and obsession are some of the many symptoms . After the relationship ends their life falls apart after the realization that the future they imagined will never come . After the breakup a stage of “blues” arrives where they deal with depression and sadness for months until enough time has passed to heal the wound.

Get the First Relationship Blues mug.Some BS that FB made up to let all your friends/everyone else know who you’re currently fucking.....Stealth motherfuckers(who think they’re sneaky as fuck),just put “in a relationship”,without really specifying who it is(that they’re fucking).....Really,it’s not an official relationship status.....Women like to put it on their relationship status(to keep all of the hard dicks away),and men like to put it(to let everyone know who they’re fucking,and that they’re fucking someone currently).....Doesn’t really matter(who it is),they’re fucking.....As long as they are.
“Is that who Barbara is currently fucking?”....”How can she be “in a relationship”,when her sorry ass is married?”....”.Why is she pretending to be available when she’s not?”.
