Overlapping

Hi,

What does 'overlapping relationship' mean?

Could anyone help me? Thanks.
  

Top answer

I'll need the whole sentence to understand what is intended. Without it, it just means that (at least) two relationships have something in common.

Mercer says young people report more overlapping relationships than other age groups.

Young people more often have 2 or more sexual or near-sexual relationships happening at the same time (= 'overlapping relationships') than do other age groups.

(That makes sense!)
