One of the options for "Relationship Status" on Facebook. Refers to a couple in an ambiguous state between "friends" and "in a relationship". May also be used to indicate dissatisfaction with an existing relationship.
If someone changes their status from "In a Relationship" to "It's Complicated", expect them to be "Single" and "Looking for Random Play" soon.

a couple that can't decide to be friends, friends with benefits, or to be in a full out relationship. Friends continue to ask each person what their situation is but no one can truly say in a relationship.
Robin and Lauren's relationship is complicated. If I had to put a title on it I would say,"It's complicated!" Come on guys, just be in a relationship all ready.

Damn, this math problem is hard.

So? Would you say it's complicated?

What? No. Idiot. The correct term is complicating.

I think you're mistaken.

That's why you're dumb.

When your emotions are constantly in conflict with each other, and you just want to escape the world.
Girl A and Girl B are supposed to be bestfriends.
Girl B went out with Boy A, but midway through the relationship, he starts liking Girl A. Girl A also likes him. They break up, and Girl A starts to go out with Boy A after nearly a year. Meanwhile, Girl C has a crush on Boy A, and keeps overtly flirting with him. After some time, Girl B starts telling Girl A that Boy A likes two other people at the same time. Girl B also tells Boy A that Girl A is considering breaking up with him, as well as spreading rumors that Boy B is going out with Girl C. Some time later, they break up or rather, Girl B broke them up (but later it is found out that they still loved each other when they broke up). Girl C keeps being clingy with Boy A, and Girl A is extremely irked, as both Girl C and Girl B are flirting with him. A few months after the breakup, Girl B starts liking Boy A, and vice versa. However, Boy A stops liking her, as he knows he cannot trust her. Boy B, who has always liked her, will have his heart broken. Presently, it's awkward between Boy A and Girl A. And Girl A is getting killed inside by her conflicting emotions. Wow, that's complicated.

A Facebook relationship status, where an individual is not happy with their current relationship, and is willing to tell the world how frustrated they are with their significant other or lack thereof.

this can also mean that one is involved in multiple relationships. Or their significant other is a whore and complicated the relationship, but being with several people at once
Well how's your girlfriend Jim ?

"Shes ok, I just wish she weren't dating three other guys while dating me too." It's complicated
