How to Stop Getting Sucked Into Situationships

The dreaded "situationship" is still alive and well on today's dating scene. It's almost ingrained in our culture that people think that having an undefined relationship that is hurtful and confusing, and that drags on indefinitely (especially a sexual one) is "normal."

It's "normal" that people don't really like you enough to want to commit.

It's "normal" for people to not even ask for commitment because if they do, they are "weird" or they are "moving too fast" or they get ridiculed because it's not the 1950's anymore. People don't commit, they just hookup!

In the not so distant past, taking LSD was a "normal" part of the culture as well. Doesn't mean it was a wise thing to do.

And you too can avoid getting sucked into situationships using a similar approach. Here's how:
