sleep purgatory

When you pass out from being drunk, you never really get sleep but you're not awake either. You are somewhere in the middle.
I'm so tired today, I got wasted last night and wound up falling into sleep purgatory.

relationship purgatory

The dead zone that one enters in between relationships; when it is too late to resume a past relationship and yet too soon to begin another.

This "relationship limbo", if you will, is usually encountered by people who have ruined their past relationship to such an extent that it cannot be repaired, and yet cannot move on to another as the pain of said breakup is still too near. There is no way to move back and yet no way to move forward, and the sufferer is left in a no-man's land of loneliness and netflix.
Person A: hey, you and Jenny broke up like two weeks ago and all you've done is lie in bed and watch Netflix. You must have seen every episode of Hannibal at least five times now. Come out with us and find someone else.

Person B: BUT I DON'T WANT ANYONE ELSE.

Person A: then go tell her you're sorry!

Person B: NO. IT'S OVER FOR GOOD NOW.

Person A: then come out and meet someone else!!

Person B: BUT I CAAAAN'T

Person C: fuck. she's got a serious case of relationship purgatory.

purgatory

A state of mind that Roman Catholics believe you go to if you have sinned on earth but you believe in Jesus. You stay in purgatory untill you have paid off all your sins, however some people stay there forever.
If I used to ask myself over a coffin: "What good did it do the occupant to be born?" I now put the same question about anyone alive

Purgatory

When 2 people are obviously into each other and behave like a couple, but don't actually go out...yet. This may be due to one or both of the people being uncomfortable with being in a committed relationship.
Are Josh and Carley dating yet? I mean they might as well at this point, they're just floating around in relationship purgatory. They would just be doing the same stuff anyway.
