Queerplatonic relationship

A queerplatonic relationship is a special kind of close relationship between two people. It is more than just a friendship, but it may not be a romantic relationship either. It is a way for two people to express their love for each other in a different way. In a queerplatonic relationship, two people may do activities that friends usually do, like hang out, but there are often other activities that two people in a romantic relationship do, like sharing a bed, going on dates, and making long-term plans together. In a queerplatonic relationship, the two people are more like partners rather than just friends.
