Is there a (short) name for:
1. Not defining relationships as eg. "boyfriend" vs. "lover" vs. "friend", etc. but rather just treating them all as "wherever it ends up going that we both feel comfortable with"?
2. Not experiencing 'relationship degradation', ie. if I haven't talked to somebody for 5 years and then talk to them again, it'll be exactly where we left off?

(Boosts welcome!)

@joepie91 Thanks for the term " relationship degradation", that might be useful for discussing this phenomenon! :)

@blinry It's a term I've only learnt recently, actually! Until a few months ago, it hadn't even really occurred to me that this wasn't how relationships worked for everybody... and it explains a lot of the accusations of "neglecting relationships" that ND folks often get thrown at them :/
