actually no, we're not "dating". we're bound together for infinity. like the stars. so, fuck you, actually.

Characters dynamic that’s like “ they’re not in a romantic relationship but they definitely love each other with all their heart and fucking soul”

does anyone want to be best friends that also live together and go on adventures together but like mundane adventures like ikea and target and also wants to lay our heads on each others shoulders when sleepy but also have separate bedrooms but also enjoy spending most of our free time together……. just me? ok

I swear, if "aromantic people need a queerplatonic partner to be happy" becomes an actual societal expectation, I'm going to actually cry.

JFC CAN WE STOP PUTTING RELATIONSHIPS INTO A SOCIETAL HIERARCHY MAYBE???

"QPRs are deeper than a friendship🥺" HUSHHHH YOU NEED TO HUSHHHH

a QPR is whatever the fuck you want it to be!! And trying to put them on a higher level than friendship in society reminds me so much of how people have basically made nonbinary into a third part of a trinary instead of a deconstruction of the binary.

It's like making a trinary of relationships lmao

For me being in a qpr lately is like. No we're not dating. Yes this is my boyfriend isn't he great and lovely and handsome aren't I lucky. No I don't want anyone to mistake us for romantic partners. Yes I want to marry him. No we're not "just friends". Yes I don't want people to think our friendship matters less than our love. No I don't care what people think. Yes I want you to know that we're each other's and each other's alone. No I've never had a crush on him. Yes, I love him with all my heart and soul.

what if we cuddled for so long we were both warm and we smelled like each other. what then.

Queerplatonic does not mean and has never meant "more than friends". Reducing qprs to "non-romantic and non-sexual relation that is more than friends" is not accurate at all of the wide variety of relationships that might be qprs. For one, qprs can contain elements of romance and/or sex as much as the people in a give qpr are comfortable with. For another, "more than friends" just shows that you haven't done any work to deconstruct amatonormativity. Weaving a relationship hierarchy into the general definition of any type of relationship is amatonormative. This doesn't mean you can't value your own personal relationship as "more than friends", it is general statements about the inherent values of different relationships that is the issue.

Relationships aren’t better than friendship, they’re just different

I am so deeply in love with you. No words will ever do justice to my adoration and affection for you. All I can say is I love you I love you I love you I love you

this one's for my arospec homies.

Let's go to the aquarium together and I can draw the sharks while you tell me facts like how sharks keep swimming even when they're asleep and you've got that excited look on your face and then we can go home to our house and cuddle on our couch while we watch our favourite shows and play video games and cook each other dinner and go to coles together and spend every moment of our lives together because the look on your face when you see me is infinitely more beautiful than all the sunrises we'll watch together
