"A flirtationship is a relationship between two friends, where both people engage in flirtatious behavior without the promise of becoming anything more." - LovePanky
Have you ever been in one of these? This is a really interesting topic to discuss, because when you enter into this place in a relationship, you never really know what could happen. Often, you find yourself in different places within a relationship and flirtationship is a fun place to be. You've realized that you aren't in the friend-zone but you don't necessarily need to DTR (Define The Relationship). There's nothing wrong with flirting, but here I just wanted to give you a bit of insight on how, with flirtationship, you should be a little careful.
1. If you are in a flirtationship, have fun. Like I said, there is nothing wrong with flirting. Too often, especially in the kind of circles I'm apart of, we tend to feel like we need to get through the flirting phase to quickly. Like if the relationship is not Facebook official, then there is something wrong. Sometimes, we need this to make sure that there is not only a temporary connection, but a lifelong connection as well.
2. If you are in flirtationship, be safe. Just because you are in a flirtationship with someone doesn't mean you are the only one that person may be talking to. Hopefully that's not the case, but because you aren't officially in a relationship, anything is open. Protect your heart.
3. Finally, if you are in a flirtationship, DTR. I wouldn't wait too long to Define The Relationship, because if you are in a flirtationship for too long, someone might become confused and end up thinking that maybe nothing is ever going to happen.
Flirtationship, is a good thing. It allows you to get to know someone you are interested in and to see if anything can actually work out. But once again, don't take too long. You don't want to give up your chances, but also make sure your heart is in the right place. Good Luck!
