The state in where you’re woken up by having to go pee but don’t want to get out of bed so you’re in between being asleep and being awake lying in bed having to pee and not getting out to go to the bathroom but also having a bad night’s sleep not being able to go back to bed.

So I was hitting it from behind with this mormon chick and I pull out and she says "You're going to hell for wasting your cum"
"No I'm going to mormon purgatory because I'm not mormon."

Yeah Dirk Diggler, I've never met that guy, but he keeps requesting on facebook. He's definitely in my purgatory list.
Oh there was this guy that I met last night at The Abbey, he didn't ask for my number, but is friend requesting me. I'll put him in my purgatory list

When your relationship is falling apart, and you don't know if you want to break up, so you and your partner go on a break. Stuck in the realms of the relationship. (Works with shady friends too)
"Listen, you yell at me again, I'm gonna send you to purgatory."
"Why are you texting me? I told you I need my space from you. This is not what a purgatory boyfriend is supposed to do. Bye, Satan."
"I really don't know what he doesn't understand...I'm glad he's my purgatory boyfriend right now. This relationship is too much right now."

When you're trying to lose weight and your fat pants fall down, but your skinny pants don't fit yet. You're between pants. You're in pants purgatory.
"Yeah, I went to lunch today at Subway so I could get skinny like Jared. My pants fell down and I was hanging brain right there in line while I was picking out sandwich toppings. Being in pants purgatory sucks."
