When two people who are unable to date, are stuck in the world of: "I like you, but I can't date you" and so they have to proceed with their relationship (Intense liking, but acting like friends) until their circumstances change.

The inverse of a symbiotic relationship. Instead of augmenting, complimenting, and assisting one another, these Tom and Jerry couples exist are in a near continuous state of hot and cold warfare. By mutual consent occasional pauses in hostilities provide humanitarian corridors for some furious cease fires sex. Both entrenched factions refuse to make peace by breaking up on a permanent basis in fear the other will do better without them. Thus proving that they were the inferior partner in the biological brawl of a love/ hate/ I need you, you asshole fuckface title fight. All their friends in a moment of clarity makes plans to kill one of the contenders in the relationship to bring serenity to all concerned parties, but self interest takes primacy. The plotter will succumb to the innane logic "...but they're my friend." Be the hero. Go with the garrote.

PERSON 2: I know. I want this to last, too. I want it to be something.

Me and my ex-girlfriend Sarah definitely had a toxic relationship back in college, you didn't know if you were going to wake up with a frying pan to the head or a blowjob.
