Where the male in the relationship settles for a woman that's way below his league when he could have a better, more creative woman. This woman is probably very ugly and the male is only dating her to feel more confident about himself and will receive ridicule and social torture until he either commits suicide or ends the horrible, bound to fail, relationship.
boy 1: "Dude did you hear about Dan?"

boy 2: "No man, what happened?"

boy 1: "Well i have some bad news...he's dating Jessica."

boy 2: "Dude! She's fucking ugly!"

boy 1: "I know man, he settled, he could have had Tabby."

boy 2: "What a dumbass. Lets go make fun of his Settling Relationship."

This is phrase that can be roughly translated to "it could be worse." It is derived from the idea that there are far worse things in this world than ticks (the pesky, tiny arachnid). One who sees the silver lining in a situation would "settle for ticks," in favor of a more terrible outcome.
-"Damnit! I can't believe we don't have floor seats."

-"Hey man, I'd settle for ticks, we could be up on the balcony, and then we wouldn't even be able to see the band."

Variation of the traditional "settle down". Settle-D is a street smart phrase used mostly in an urban context when someone overreacts or simply reacts inappropriately to a situation/event. Settle-D is most relevant when the overreacting person is demonstrating too much excitement for their own good and is placing the social decorum of the party in danger.
Overreacting friend: "OMG dude! Look at the chicks that just walked in! I am totally going to impress them by buying a round of shots and showing them my sick dance moves!"

Other friend: "Settle-D bro"
