awkwaintance 

A person with whom you are insufficiently acquainted to either make easy small talk or enjoy a comfortable silence. An "awkwaintance" is often the friend of a friend; he or she is promoted to the position of "awkwaintance" when the mutual friend leaves you two alone.

(Ash and Gary are at dinner. Brock walks up.)

Ash: Oh, hey, it's Brock! What's going on, man! This is Gary; Gary, Brock. Join us, Brock!

(Brock joins.)
(10 minutes later.)

Ash: Sorry, I have to go be somewhere by myself for an unspecified length of time. Later, guys!

(Gary and Brock, newly made awkwaintances, finish their meals in uncomfortable silence, punctuated by disjointed small talk and uneasy chuckling.)

awkquaintance 

An especially awkward relationship between two people who were once really, really close but suddenly stopped talking to each other for one reason or another. This could be due to a breakup, backstabbing, argument, etc.

Signs of an awkquaintance include never talking to each other, awkward smiles in the hallway, and avoiding each other whenever possible.

Selena: Oh, that sucks.

Demi: Yeah. OMG, here he comes, let's get out of here!
