I've never quite understood "it's complicated", I mean what's so complicated about it...either you like me or you don't right? Well according to Facebook and plenty others, its just not that simple...So what does it really mean when we refer to our relationship status as complicated? Are you available to date other people? Are you still exclusively dating the "complicated" individual? Do the expectations still exist as if we are still boyfriend and girlfriend? And let's not forget about sex, if you ask me, sex is the real reason why relationships are labeled as being "complicated", I mean think about it; if you've been dating someone for a few months and things are going okay, but they don't just do it for you. The sex is pretty good though, meanwhile you meet someone else but you have to go through the entire "get to know you" process, which can take time depending on the person. After awhile, you realize that you would like to pursue things with the new person, but the situation with "old faithful" has become convenient, if your the nice type you don't want to hurt anyone's feelings, and hey your getting it on the regular...many of us just won't walk away from convenience, right? I say leave the convenience on the table, it's just not worth it in the long run. The headache that comes along with these "complicated" relationships is way too much and I personally think anyone who is in a relationship that they would describe as complicated can do better.

When I see "complicated" as a person's relationship status, I think, Oh, they must be in something they want to leave, but can't for one reason or another. It's usually a financial (they have no $ to split up, or they have a lot of $ and don't want to part with it if they leave) or familial (kids, partner's health) problem that keeps them obligated to the other person. I think they should add "Stuck" as a relationship status....that'd clear up so much!
I agree Valerie. Complicated means they are feeling stuck. Time to stop procrastinating and make an actual decision so they can move on in their life. Alot of people get stuck in a rut, because of laziness, lack of money, not wanting to hurt other people etc, but the most important person is always you. If you are not happy it is time to find out why. And the question to ask is: What do you want in your life? How do I want my life to be? Other people can take care of themselves, that is their destiny and their journey. If someone is not happy in some part of their life, they need to figure out what will make them happy and then take action. ACTION is the most important. Positive affirmations are good but action is what is required. 'Complicated status' means 'I have got stuff going on right now and my life is complicated'. They need to uncomplicate their life, which is similar to throwing out old and used possessions, which are no longer necessary in your life right now. Freeing up the space, in your wardrobe and your mind, will attract more of the right energy (vibrations) and will get you what you really desire, but have been too scared to ask for previously.
