Alright, here’s the deal: situationships are the weird cousin of dating - kinda romantic, kinda not, with zero labels and a lot of confusion. We found a bunch of hilarious, jaw-dropping things people’s situationships actually said. Grab some popcorn and buckle up!

Asked, “Do you think about me when I’m not around?” He shot back, “I don’t think about you even when you are around.” Oof.
"You know you don’t have to message me every time to let me know you got home safe? x" The ultimate cold shoulder with a side of casual shrug.
He said, “I don’t wanna sound insensitive but would you still wanna come over?” The day her mom passed away. Talk about timing.
“I don’t want anything serious with you but I don’t like the idea of you seeing other people.” So… clingy ghost? Pick a lane!
Classic mixed signals: “I thought I wanted you, but now that I have you, I realized I don’t want you.” Oof, right in the heart.
At the club, DJ shouts, “Single ladies put your hands up!” He just lifts her hand up like it’s nobody’s business. Cringe city.
He told her he was busy. But plot twist: he was busy tying the knot with someone else. Reality check delivered!
While traveling together, they casually wonder if they’ll end up at each other’s weddings. Cute or crazy? You decide.
Classic soap opera move: admits thinking about getting back with an ex... and promises updates. Drama guaranteed.
“When I’m with you I enjoy every moment, but when we’re apart I don’t think about you at all.” Ouch, that’s the opposite of romantic.
“I’m happy with you but I don’t want to miss out on possibly being happier with someone else.” Dear diary, entry: emotional indecisiveness.
He said, “I want you to be my girlfriend,” then 30 minutes later, “Sorry, changed my mind.” Blink and you’ll miss the commitment!
“You’re so great, you have SO much love to give, I just don't want it.” Can someone get a dictionary to this guy? Love sounds optional.
“I can totally see myself marrying you and having kids with you - but I won’t.” Thanks for breaking hearts while dreaming!
“The only reason I saw you today is ‘cause the girl I’m talking to is on vacation.” Well, that clears things up real quick.
Months after breaking it off, he texts her to come over. She says she’s on a date. His reply? “Great, take the leftovers for us.” Classy.
He ended it with, and we quote, "I need to keep on top of my laundry." Talk about a turning point in life priorities.
“Even when I’m married and have kids, we’re still gonna be doing this.” Uh… what exactly is ‘this’?
After kicking everyone out early to catch a dentist appointment, he drove away in his car... circled the block... and snuck back inside. Sneaky sneaky.
She flew all the way from New York to London, and when she mentioned it, he said, “You could’ve flown from the moon and it wouldn’t have mattered.” Uh, thanks for the warmth.
“You’re perfect. I’d marry you right now if there weren’t so many options out there.” Tinder life, for real.
"Realizing how horrible I treated you makes me want to treat her better." Ooof, talk about a late epiphany.
“My biggest fear is if I ask you to marry me - you'd say yes.” Well, that's a plot twist nobody asked for.
He texts “so bored, kinda wanna leave.” She agrees, and he tells her out loud, “You can leave if you want.” Talk about awkward honesty.
“Have fun at your friend’s birthday, hopefully you meet the love of your life.” Yep, he's just wishing her luck elsewhere.
When she didn’t answer a message, he said, “You didn’t answer, you’re learning, proud of you.” Like, what?
“Sorry I couldn’t talk, I found out I have high cholesterol and it’s been a lot.” Classic excuse or real talk? You decide.
She said she felt he hated her sometimes. He responded, “To hate you I have to care, which I don’t.” Cold as ice.
“Hi, is ‘situationship’ code for dating people who hate you???!” Asking the real questions here.
On a romantic date, he goes, “This is perfect to say ‘I love you,’ the problem is that I don’t.” Barf-worthy honesty.
She says she needs to focus on someone who wants her. He replies, “Periodt.” That’s one way to end a convo.
Not a situationship, but her ex-husband once asked, “Why do you let me treat you so badly?” Yikes.
He said, “You’re a star that refuses to shine.” Because vague, confusing compliments are the best.
He left and came back eight times in under two years; when asked why, he said, “Because you always let me.” Plot twist: she was speechless.
Classic line: “Don’t be sad it’s over, smile because it happened.” Insert awkward laughs here.
“I’m emotionally in love with you but not physically attracted to you.” When flirting meets brutal honesty.
She says, “I love you.” He replies, “I have love for you.” Close, but not really. Words matter, dude.
She said she’d rather have a situationship than not have him at all. His response? Just… “Yikes.” Harsh, bro.
She asked for the bare minimum. He said, “But I’m giving you the bare minimum.” Damage control or confession?
He’d bring his cat over every trip, then text casually, “Hey, I met someone new and we’re dating. I’ll bring the cat on Sunday.” Because why make things clear?
“We don’t have to talk every day.” Then 5 years later, married with a baby on the way. Predictable? Maybe.
Broke no contact by texting, “I miss you,” then ghosted immediately after. When called out, he said, “Just cause I miss you doesn’t mean I have to talk to you.” Say what now?
“If we start dating, can we break up for summer, do our own thing, then get back together in October?” Um, that’s… not how dating works.
“In like 8 years on my wedding day, I’ll be thinking about you and how you’re the one who got away.” Oh, the bittersweet regrets.
“I just like your attention more than I like you as a person.” Brutally honest or just rude? You choose.
“I didn’t wish you happy birthday ‘cause I wasn’t sure if you’d want me to.” Like, seriously?
He said “I love you” for the first time... a mere 30 minutes before cheating. Can’t make this stuff up.
“You’re everything I want in a person, I just don’t want you to be my person.” Mixed signals galore.
“Let’s not confuse intimacy with love.” Because apparently, those are totally different things. Or are they?
“I need to end the casual part because I’m catching feelings, but I promised myself I’d never be with someone from my job.” They actually work the same job. Awkward!
“Why does it matter if I’m kissing other people? I’m obviously coming home with you.” That’s one way to look at commitment.
“I don’t see myself dating you right now, but that doesn’t mean… maybe sometime later.” Fancy way of saying “I’m undecided.”
He said she reminded him of Carrie Bradshaw. Fashion icon or complicated love life? You decide.
He said, “I can see myself marrying you,” right after ending things. Smooth operator, or messy? You choose.
“I’d rather stay in because if we don’t work out, I’d have wasted my time and money.” Can you blame him?
“I’ve never made plans in advance. I don’t do calendars, I’m spontaneous.” Also known as ‘I’m unreliable.’
After ghosting her for a month, he breaks no contact to ask if she misses him. She says no, and he responds... well, not well.
“You deserve love, and I don’t have any to give.” Then he got married a year later. Awkward timing.
“You’re perfect. I love you. Let’s be friends.” And that’s how you get friend-zoned like a pro.
“I don’t want a relationship.” Then admits he’s talking seriously to someone else. Plot twist alert!
“Don’t tell anyone about our situationship because I’d get bullied.” The secrets nobody wanted.
“I just use Tinder for entertainment when I’m bored, I don’t talk to them, you’re the one I want.” Fingers crossed.
