Off-brand relationship

off-brand relationship: by definition, is a dating relationship that contains the same ingredients of a normal relationship but without the label. These "ingredients" can contain some if not all of these characteristics:

see and talk to each other daily, holding hands, cuddling, frequent text messages and phone conversations, jealousy of a member of the opposite sex (levels of jealousy different in degrees of psychosis of the individual), constant denial of "anything going on" and constant reminders that "we are just friends." There are also various levels of physical interaction that occur that range from kissing all the way to intercourse. If you or another are suffering from any or all of these symptoms, you may be involved in an off-brand relationship and may be in dire need of making it official or officially ending it;however, this would result in an off-brand breakup (see off-brand break up for more detail).

For example: you may know of someone who talks regularly with another person, they frequently see each other, they might go out from time to time, cuddle, hold hands, text and talk on the phone daily...even have fits of drama that seem pointless. they also may get physical from time to time (this tends to depend on the amount of time they've "been together.") Neither of them wants to admit that they're dating. this is different from such things as friends with benefits, because in this situation, each person has feelings for the other or it might just be that one person (more than likely from the male party) desires the benefits of a relationship; however, still is free from the burdens of a relationship. As for the female, she may desire to be with someone and although she has not met the right individual, she feels the need to at least have someone by her side;however, the truth is she refuses to admit that she really has feelings for this guy and she consistenly denies that there is "anything going on."

you may know of someone in an off-brand relationship, it happens all over the world. It may be happening to you! my suggestion, label it or end it. (see off-brand breakup for more details)

Middle school relationship

When two kids who “like” each other decide to get into a “relationship” they basically akwardly hang around each other, maybe even through in some flirty snaps like, “you looks so good today” or “I like ur jeans” this goes on until one of them “likes” somebody else and breaks the others heart.

in middle school relationships you only date beceause you like the way the other one looks. You should get to know them first and generally like jsut being in there presents before making commitments .

E-Relationship

An E-Relationship, also known as internet dating, is often common around a younger generation of people, or the older lonely types. It can last if the people actually see each other every now and then, but usually it sends someone down into a spiraling depression. Often the relationship will just not go anywhere, probably one another are too far away from each other to have any sort of intimacy, making it seem like it isn't going anywhere. Hence the depression and loss of social life. It is one big emotional roller coaster if you play your cards right.

Low Maintenance Relationship

A Low Maintenance Relationship (LMR) is when a couple is mutually exclusive to one another but not in a FULL relationship. A low maintenance relationship includes NOT needing to talk to them everyday, maybe SOME texting per day but NOT a super abundance, getting together ONLY once or twice a week and going out and SOME sex.

A LMR is for active individuals who have many responsibilities and have no time for a FULL relationship.

Girl how are you going to balance work, school and a boy friend? You're going to get burnt out.

I just need a Low Maintenance Relationship and I'll be all set.

open relationship

An open relationship is a relationship where one person does not own the other. The couple are not exclusively seeing each other and can date, flirt and hook up with other people should they wish to do so. In a true open relationship the couple will be fully honest with each other (unlike most regular relationships). They will not get pissed at each other for stupid things such as not ringing the day before, wearing a slutty top, passing out cold in a club, kissing that lesbian in the lift. Infact they will just love each other for who they are and support each other through times of need. Although other people will say they are sluts and it will never work, they onlys say this because they are jealous. In the end the couple will get bored of seeing other people because they realise they are the best two out there. Then they get married and have beautiful children. And retire together in Goa.

Couple in an open relationship:

Holly – “Get any luck last night?”
Jeremy - “Some nice assed latin girl”
Holly “As nice as me?”
Jeremy – “No Holly. Youre the best.”
Holly – “I know. Can you test me on my hindi?”
Jeremy – “Whats Pani”?
