Question - what do you call 2 people who are more then Best Friends but are not dating?
In Korean dramas there is this trope, which I love and it usually that the main lead girl has the man she marries and then she has the man that is her soulmate. Her soulmate is with her and loves her no matter what--whether he is with someone, if she is with someone etc. The soulmate loves the other person so much that it transcends relationship--as long as the other person is safe and happy. Idk if that helps but I always found it a sweet concept.
umm...I usually call them Queerplatonic partners (or queerplatonic relationships). But I guess it depends on how you feel comfortable defining your relationship :)
If you want a little more detail on what is usually called a QPP (queerplatonic partnership) this is a very good description. QPP is also mentioned in this Q&A and in this forum post
Best of luck on your relation and I hope you find a way to desribe it that you feel comfortable using :)
um - we are male / female - so this doesn't apply...
thanks anyway...
The queer in QPP doesn't really refer to gender but to meaning 'different from the norm" type of relationship. But no problem :) I hope you find a good word to describe it
I guess everyone here responding is trying to place a label, but nothing seems to fit.
What do you want to call it? It's unique to you so you should have an instinctual name for the relationship. When you look/think about her, what does your gut say? What do you want to call her? Also, are you happy with the status or would you like for you and your friend to become a romantic couple/date?
