Buffer Relationship Status

Definition

That awkward romantic limbo you broadcast on Facebook between breakups, when admitting you're single feels too raw. A temporary relationship status—usually something vague like 'It's Complicated'—that buys you emotional time while you pretend you're fine.

Example Usage

After the breakup, Jessica switched to 'It's Complicated with Travel' as her buffer relationship status until she was ready to face 'Single' next month.
