What would you call it if a man and a woman have sex when they are not 'in a relationship' even though they are in love with each other?

Is that considered ‘hooking up’? I have always thought that hooking up was just have sex with someone that you don’t really have feelings for. Your opinion?

Answer #1

If they are in love, why aren’t they in a relationship?

Answer #2

if they are in lvoe with eavhother then that is some kind of relationship.

Answer #3

friends with benefits

Answer #4

My best guess would be ‘Friends with benefits”? But I’m with the others, if they’re in love then why aren’t they in a relationship? I’ve been there, but we weren’t in love, we just had feelings for each other, but it was some sort of relationship. If they’re in love it should be a relationship :)

Answer #5

i agree with taytay but i would have to say either of these an open relationship or it’s complicated.

Answer #6

Well it is probably “ LUST “, rather than love.

But in any case I think that it is a “one-night stand” or possibly the start of a loving relationship, that they were not already in.

Answer #7

Lol blatent facebook terms ;D

Answer #8

They’re not ‘in a relationship’ because they are so far from each other. They talk to each other like they’re dating. They just don’t have that label.

Answer #9

They’re not ‘in a relationship’ because they are so far from each other. They talk to each other like they’re dating. They just don’t have that label.

Answer #10

They’re not ‘in a relationship’ because they are so far from each other. They talk to each other like they’re dating. They just don’t have that label.

Answer #11

Well if they are close enough to be having sex, then it shouldn’t be a problem to be dating. Distance shouldn’t matter if they love the person.

Answer #12

They’ve dated before… and they broke up because the distance thing was to hard. They didn’t get to see each other. She hasn’t seen him for over a year now, but they’re kept in contact. And he’ll be visiting her in a few weeks. So I’m not really sure how to describe their relationship… but they aren’t ‘dating’.

Answer #13

But isn’t friends with benefits lust and not love?

Answer #14

Well how I look at it is if two people love eachother nothing should stop them from being together. I was in a long distance relationship for 16 months, and he was my first love, I still love him to this day, and we broke up over a year ago. Distance didn’t matter to us.. I saw him once during the whole 16 months that we were dating.

Answer #15

I don’t know, I love my friends. Some of them very deeply. I think all good relationships start with friendship.

Answer #16

I too agree with you. But he doesn’t want to start a relationship.. so idk. But I agree.

Answer #17

Yeah, guys are so stubborn, lol. Maybe if the girl talked to him about it, and told her how she feels about them not officially being together he might chance his outlook on the situation, but time is everything. Maybe within time they will officially be together.. If they really love eachother it will happen, if it doesn’t happen then that just proves that it wasn’t meant to be.

Answer #18

change *

Answer #19

She doesn’t want to pressure him. But she’s already happy that he talks to her and loves her. That’s all she really wished for. Making it official but he too much to ask for. She doesn’t want to mess things up. She loves him. :) But yeah, maybe within time they’re finally be together again.

Answer #20

Well maybe one day they’ll develop into an official couple. They sound compatible :)

Answer #21

Well I hope everything falls into place with them, sounds like they are happy.

Answer #22

I guess they are together? Kinda wierd that they had sex and all that yet they don’t have the courage to ask eachother out? 0.O

Answer #23

They’ve gone out. They dated and broke up but are still very much in love with each other. Just hard to start a relationship because of long distance.

Answer #24

if they dont know eachother very wel ltehn they arnt IN love.

Answer #25

I never mentioned that they don’t know each other very well?
