Non-committal love – Are situationships good for us? | DW Documentary

From DW Documentary.

The desire for non-committal love is a dating trend among singles aged 18 to 25. Members of this group seek relationships that fall somewhere between a partnership and a one-night stand. But the uncertainties can be agonizing.

Every second couple met via dating platforms like Tinder, Bumble, OkCupid or Grindr. But often, the non-committal nature of the first date seems to stretch on and on. "Situationships” or "NATO dating” ("Not Attached To an Outcome”) are the new forms of dating. Online dating makes many things possible – including intimacy without commitment. What are the pros and cons of this kind of relationship?
