transitional relationships/partners Explanation: Based on the context in your previous queries, I have a feeling that the "Objekte" in this case are people, and would therefore suggest using transitional relationships or partners. Another term associated with the next partner one is with after a breakup, especially if the breakup is not very far in the past, is rebound relationship or rebound partner. A rebound relationship is almost always transitional in nature. HTH! |
