00:00 No label, but to be in love, that's what we call a situation-ship.
00:06 Oh, I didn't know that.
00:07 The expert's advice on those who are in a situation-ship, in Bon Aquino's report.
00:13 Bia is 38 years old and has been single for 4 years.
00:19 So when she found out about a potential date on a dating app, she said she's ready to mingle.
00:24 Within 7 months, they became more than friends.
00:28 It's a daily routine for me to meet my boyfriend and girlfriend,
00:32 then when I go home, I greet them,
00:34 and when it's free time, before I go home, I'll go to work,
00:38 then I'll go home.
00:40 But when she asked where their relationship is going,
00:44 She said, "I want to work out, but I'm not ready yet."
00:48 So I thought, I don't want to be in a situation-ship, so I ended it there.
00:54 Like Bia, it seems like Arlene is also hoping for nothing within 8 months of being a college student.
01:00 You have a spark, and you always talk to each other.
01:05 When I confessed, I wanted to make everything clear, that's when she said she doesn't want anything.
01:09 The experiences of Bia and Arlene are considered a situation-ship.
01:14 Or what you do, things that lovers do, but you don't have a label or commitment.
01:20 The problem here is it's not clear, right? So usually what happens is the expectations are mismatched.
01:27 Because it's impossible to have no expectations whatsoever with a person that we're intimate with.
01:34 So it's like not going home to hurt feelings.
01:36 According to the expert, you should talk to each other from the start.
01:39 The other very important time to talk is before you get intimate.
01:45 Before you cross that line.
01:49 Because sometimes, we think we can do it, it's just for fun, right?
01:53 And then we get intimate, and then there, we cannot separate our feelings anymore.
01:58 It can also be ethical to have a situation-ship if you both like it.
02:03 And for singles who want to date,
02:05 Join group activities, events, clubs, classes, join recreational classes.
02:14 Because even if you don't meet that one person, if you don't get to meet a romantic partner,
02:20 you learned something, you enjoyed it.
