Not A Relationship 

Usually referred to as a NAR.
Pronounced: gnar as in the first half of gnarly

Def: When 2 people are seeing one another on a regular basis for a lengthy amount of time they usually can be give the title. This couple will act as if they are in a relationship, but will not call each other “boyfriend/girlfriend,” but may use pet names such as “honey, baby, snookums, ect”

This word can be used up to the extreme of 2 people cohabitating for many years, having kids, mixing bank accounts; at this point it would be referred as a Not A Marriage.
Patrick: Ruby and Zeph are always together, they are hanging out all the time. I think he is taking her to Thanksgiving dinner!
Sheena: So are they an item?
Patrick: No, its just a NAR (Not A Relationship)! I asked them about it last night.

not in a relationship relationship 

When a person you are interested in doesn't give any fucking sign/clue that she/he is in a relationship. FUCK
So then you spend a lot of time trying to get with them, BUT they are already in a goddamn relationship.
Me: Hey can you help me with something, there's this girl you know. I really like her

Friend of the person I am trying to get with:
Ohh, she's taken

Me: Well frick, why doesn't she at least have one picture of them together, so that I don't waste my time, or potentially get face beaten in.

Friend of the person I am trying to get with:
Well, that's not her problem, you should have known.

Me: wtf, HOW?

Friend of the person I am trying to get with:
Idk.

Me: So you are saying she is in not in a relationship relationship

I'm not ready for a relationship 

Translation: You are annoying and our interactions need to end immediately.

Uttered when a person realizes a dating partner is not worth it/crazy. A form of "it's not you, it's me." A lie to quickly end things without hurting the other person's feelings. Often has the opposite effect as the other party may engage in manipulative techniques to avoid a break up. Smooth as butter when it works.
Scenario 1
Person A: Hey I know we've been seeing each other for a while but after a lot of thinking, I'm not ready for a relationship.

Person 2: Oh I see. Well I guess I'll see you around. Thanks for letting me know.

Scenario 2
Person A: Hey I know we've been seeing each other for a while but after a lot of thinking, I'm not ready for a relationship.

Person B: What do you mean? *Insert 3 hours of bs*

Person A: I'm sorry I can't talk about this anymore. *Blocks person B*

In a relationship and have kids with someone but not engaged or married 

To be involved with someone for an extended amount of time. To conceive children with this person. No legal commitment has been made.
I am in a relationship and have kids with someone but not engaged or married to this person.

nonrelationship 

A situation of unusual tension where two people are fooling around but are unwilling to give their interactions a name. There are no expectations and no ground rules, and no one knows where they stand, but it's a safe bet that they're textually active and they probably see each other twice every three weeks and have pretty hot hookups.

When something's going on, but it's not dating, and it's not a booty call, it's not a serious relationship, it's not hooking up, and it's not friends with benefits... what you've got on your hands is a nonrelationship.
Chick1: Paul texted me Thursday to party at his place Saturday night. I think I'll spend the night.
Chick2: Cool, so you're into him?
Chick1: Yeah, kinda.
Chick2: Is it going anywhere?
Chick1: Not really, but I want to consummate our nonrelationship.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
