It means the person isn't actively looking for a partner or relationship but if a good one falls in their lap, figuratively speaking, they will go for it.

When someone say that "Im not looking for a relationship but whatever happens happens", what do they mean by that? Does it happens in a mutual agreement or its with the other's decision?
Whenever anyone says or writes anything, what they mean depends on how well and carefully they are using the language.
In this case in particular, we see the word "but" is used to join the two sentence fragments. If the person is using that word correctly, it means that the second fragment is a contradiction of the first, or an exception to it in some way.
Therefore, "I am not looking for a relationship but whatever happens happens," would mean that even though they are NOT looking to become deeply involved with someone, that if they discover that they do care deeply about someone, that they will not run away from that.
The thing to keep in mind, is, that the people who are careful about what they say in this world, are few and far between. Most people blurt out catch phrases which they have heard, as though they are a programmed response machine, or a magic 8 ball. often as not, when you ask someone to re-explain what they mean about something, they will completely reverse what they just said a moment before using a catch phrase, and will deny that they every said otherwise.
Therefore, although that statement means what I said, there's no guarantee that the person who said it to you meant you to understand that.
I would worry myself, because I have found again and again, that most of the people who like to use the phrase "whatever happens happens," tend to be callous, selfish hedonists, with no sense of honor or loyalty to anyone but themselves. A very few, are deeply caring people who accept responsibility for everything, and will go the distance for you, no questions asked.
So you'll have to learn more about the person who said that, to find out what kind of person they really are.

This isn't gender specific. I've seen a whole lot of male profiles that make that statement.
It does mean exactly what it says. Not purposely seeking to be in a committed relationship but if it works out that way then I'm good with that too. You never know when you'll meet the right person.

You're kinda stupid.
You never just FOUND something... anything? Maybe just walking and found $20? Weren't out LOOKING, yet you found something of value?
So...
Not out actively looking for someone, but met some kind of way, things clicked and blah blah blah. It's not rocket-science.
And unless in a slave/master thing (slavery's been abolished btw), a relationship is always mutual in this country. "...the other's decision?" WTF

It means she has no expectations either way in anything. She is open, willing and able to make friends or have a relationship with someone who shows they worth having one with.
In laymens terms, the broad has her shit together and is ready to enjoy life without the bullshit. Most of these women are worth getting to know.

To me it means if I said that....I'm not actively seeking a relation, but if it happens....so be it.
But its kinda that way anyway....I don't believe in seeking a relation, because then its the relationship they want, the person for it may become a commodity, even though they think they have feelings for them, because the sum total of them seems to have the things they are seeking....
...but in reality that doesn't mean real love exist...and in time that will cause issues.
I see it more as would like to have a relation, but not really seeking it, and date and meet and take it as it comes... till you find one that stirs those real feelings and you have enough of the important compatibility for it to have a great chance at working out and that is the reason for the relationship....not the other way around.

I hate reading that on a guys profile. Make up your mind. You either want a relationship or want to date someone or you don't.
I feel its like saying "hey this doesn't mean a thing to me so... whatever, let's just see what happens."
I want to know you want to put some time and effort into it.
And I hate the phrase "go with the flow." I do use it sometimes, but try to not use it in a dating/relationship situation

They are looking for someone to take charge of their life because they are too passive
to do it themselves.
Going with the flow sounds like someone is willing to be flushed down a toilet.

I like to say whatever doesn't happen doesn't happen because it makes as much sense.
Although when you really think about it, the person who said this could be into set theory.
You know, like you have the set of all things that happen, and another set of all things that
don't happen, and then you do some mathematical things to them.
