There is some debate on whether the intention to create legal relations is a separate ingredient in a legally binding contract, or really just an evaluative description of what all the other ingredients (offer, acceptance and consideration) add up to.
There is some judicial authority that the intention to create legal relations is a separate thing, but dammit, that legal authority, however [[Doctrine of precedent|binding]] it might be, is wrong. As the maxim has it, ''[[anus matronae parvae malas leges faciunt]]''.
