Basically relationship with no official label as both parties don't want to commit but enjoy things as they are.

Realistically more suffering than enjoying, because they want someone to comit to them, but not comit themselves, ever bound in a cycle of emotional on-off turmoil.

Or more frequently, somebody who thought they were dating but didn't explicitally ask and somebody who's got zero intention of dating but isn't going to make that clear as to not lose the benefits.

Or even rarer and kinkier, frenemies with benefits
