I generally went with the label. Never actually thought about it like that before. If that's the case there is a chick I've dated on and off for five years whom we maintained close contact, hang out, and have sex when I'm in town...just never accumulated into a relationship because we lead different lives. I still care about her. Trying to get her to backpack with me abroad, but she continues to date douchebags. I've generally always been closer to friends with benefits. Less pressure, more fun, and less complications.OK... so when I was reading this, I wondered "what qualifies as a relationship ?" What do ya'll think ?
I think a relationship is when you're having sex with the person, you like them, and you hang out on a regular basis. People have a tendency to think fuck buddies don't count as relationships. I disagree... if you really are fuck BUDDIES than you might be in more of a relationship than if it was your "bf/gf". I tend to think true friendship takes more effort to maintain than some bf/gf relationships.
I'm a month out, and it still feels like somebody kicked me in the belly. Hence the tequila I'm drinking.
anything that requires that I take another person seriously is to me a relationship. well "seriously" past not harming themOK... so when I was reading this, I wondered "what qualifies as a relationship ?" What do ya'll think ?
