Why are you with your current partner?

[Sgts19]

Ying and Yang but somehow, we fit together perfectly.
She's not bad in the sack either

 

[Glassnslate]

I absolutely love being with her and doing things with her, not just things in the bed room, all the other things we do. We just get along and are great friends.

He would come over, we'd get naked

That part sounds hot.

Then several months after that he reached out again and we ended up getting together. From that time on we have seen each other fairly regularly, not just getting naked. But hanging out and doing social things together. Though if either one of us was interested in actually dating and finding "love' it would end. It is a classic situationship, it has all the elements of a "real" relationship except that it isn't.

Sounds like you two have a great friendship. Why would it have to end if either of you dated another person? It sounds like you have a friendship that could be maintainable.

I meant the situationship would end if either of dated someone else. We could possibly maintain the friendship but it wouldn't be the same and I don't know that it would be maintained long term.

I actually kind of misunderstood what you wrote. I thought you meant that you were not getting naked.

Oh no, we still get naked together. But there is more to things than just that. We are even planning on going a mini-vacation sometime early next year.

He takes good care of me, always pays the bills on time. Supports me when I need it. What can I say I got lucky

 

[Mrtenant]

I like to suffer.

I know this seems like a strange question. But I ask because I realized the other day the only reason my situationship & I are together is because neither of us wants to play the game (aka dating) to find a real relationship.

The whole “relationship” concept is something I’m trying to work through myself for various reasons, not least because I’m definitely single atm! My conditioning always pushed me toward the traditional model of a partner with 2.2 kids and half a Labrador but I was never comfortable with that concept. Was married and have had a series of relationships which have ranged from “comfortable for company” to “dreamworld but doomed to failure”. I think (hope) we find something which works for both people but doesn’t need to follow anyone else’s pattern. We’re all unique people so there are endless possibilities
