Question - what do you call 2 people who are more then Best Friends but are not dating?
A Blessing because it takes a lifetime to make a friend and friends come far and few in between as it has been said!
totally agree - I am blessed as it took most of my life to find a special girl like her 
someone said to me "boo thang"
If you are more than friends but not friends with benefits he is your chosen family. :) The only thing stronger than a friend short of a significant other is someone you allow close enough to be like family. It is wonderful that you have a person like this in your life!
I'm currently in this situation! We are very close, my friends told me that we're just like a couple. I was there when he's at the lowest, and he was there when i'm at my lowest. We knew what the other thinking just by looking. And we are not even dating. I myself were not even sure, whether it's love, or just being a VERY CLOSE FRIEND.
Queerplatonic relationship (QPR): an emotionally platonic relationship that has characteristics of a romantic/sexual relationship. It can be an importance/closeness stronger than the best friend norm, displaying non-sexual platonic sensual attraction (only differing from romantic sensual attraction with chaste kissing, althoughpreferringchaste kissing or no kissing does not make one?sfeelings unromantic), friends with sexual benefits, romantically pleasing someone you platonically love (QP to one and romantic to the other), or any combination of those. They may or may not have monogamy, live together, or look like a couple to the public. Romantics and Aromantics can have QPRs. The word queer originally means odd. It was later used as a slur toward gay people. Some people want to reclaim its past positive meaning. Some people may know aQPR by the term Romantic Friendship. And someuse Platonic Life Partner to mean the same thing as QPR, but i disagree. From the examples given on its wiki it's just a devoted best friend (like House and his bff James Wilson), where as a QPR has a fixation and is misinterpretable (like the first episode of the BBC series Sherlock; after that it's more so Life Partners, or JD and Terkfrom Scrubs). QPRsdidn't have a substitute name for gf/bf so someone jokingly said zucchiniand it stuck. I hate it, it's too long/needs to be too syllableslike the words its trying to replace. I like just saying QP.
