User blog:Systeroamia/Question Regarding S/xual Relationships

TW for mentions of s/x (e) and BDSM

Would it be considered a sexual relationship if there's sexual tension but without any s/x? For example, if aspects of BDSM were into play and the goal was to get them to... that point (but not through s/x whatsoever - also I am so sorry), would that be a sexual relaltionship? Or is there a better term?

So sorry if this seemed personal or tmi, but I'm just really confused at this point. I'm thinking of coining something like fetiship / kinkship / or something simlilar if there isn't anything and if it's appropriate.
