Eberex:
Taken and In a relationship, whats the difference?

Here are my explanations once again

1. Taken: when people are in relationships and unavailable, the subtle way to describe them is that they are "taken"

2. In a relationship: one who is in an emotional or having sexual affair with the opposite sex where feelings are mutual.

No 1 is a subset of No 2. The difference is found in the No 1's explanation, the emboldened part of it.

How do you measure the couples closeness, understanding etc?

Besides you can't use "probably" to qualify "seriousness"

Serious Relationship means unofficial engagement.

Both parties are not engaged but feel that they are.
They are very likely to get married with or without official engagement.

Hmmm, good one

But is it only both individuals feel that they are likely to get married (unofficial engagement) or is there other relevant people who feel the same?

firstEVA:
It falls in the category or "Relationship", but we add serious to show both parties are committed to each other and would likely get married in the future, even though not officially engaged.
That to me puts it in open relationship.
I always believe that until rings are slipped into fingers, all relationships are still open

A serious rltnshp is a commited one dat may no doubt lead to marriage. No cheatin on each oda is allowed
Re: What Does To Be "In A Serious Relationship" Means? by Nobody: 8:16am On Jan 31, 2015
There's nothing like serious relationship, its more like a qualifying word. Is there anything like serious marriage? Serious dating? Serious engagement? Fvck it. I feel its girls desperate to get married that use that word. N most often than not, it ends up not working out.

Story even newly wed dey cheat. Dese r ways people get deceived. Nothing like serious relationship if both parties have not the fear of God in them.

Re: What Does To Be "In A Serious Relationship" Means? by ElziLaz(m): 8:45am On Jan 31, 2015
When they are in a committed relationship with no room for compromise, we can call that Serious relationship and the aim is to lead to marriage. My submission.
