Where did married come from

[(Anonymous)]

The person implied that queerplatonic means forever while best friends doesn't. Well, even the most "forever" of relationships (marriage) doesn't mean forever. So queerplatonic is no more forever than best friends.

Wha huh? Living together doesn't imply marriage or foreverness and hasn't for decades. It literally means living together which most BFFs do not do afaik

[(Anonymous)]

DA

It literally means living together which most BFFs do not do afaik

...they don't? So roommates always have to be enemies? IDK there's something off with your logic here, anon.

Roommates can be BFFs, but not all BFFs are roommates... Many BFFs will live together at one point in their lives, but people typically are not expected to live together with someone (even a very close friend) long-term unless that someone is a family member or a romantic/sexual partner.

The kind of relationship that queerplatonic (etymologically flawed though it definitely is) is meant to describe is one that involves the same kind of long-term commitment you find in a romantic relationship, just in a platonic way. I've seen it likened to life partnership. Personally, it always reminds me a lot of the concept of romantic friendship.

"Romantic friendship" weirds me out. I think it'd give me creepy vibes if someone offered me a "romantic friendship". I'd start suspecting they have a crush on me but aren't willing to admit it.

It's not "queer", though, if it has nothing to do with a person's gender or sexuality, or if it's between heterosexual cis people. "Platonic life partner" would cover it. "Platonic" refers to the nature of the relationship. "Queer" refers to the peoples' sexual or gender identity. And if the people involved in the relationship are queer, how does their queerness influence their friendship?

And also, "romance" is not synonymous with "long term commitment." People have LOTS of romantic relationships that last only a few weeks, a few months, a few years.

In modern days, the reason people usually choose romantic partners as their life partners is because romantic relationships are usually the most convenient ones for fulfilling a wide range of emotional needs (friend, sexual partner, co-parent).

And for centuries and millennia before that, romantic relationships were long-term commitments because they were about producing children.

So roommates always have to be enemies?

Okay, this is unrelated but that sounds like an awesome premise for a show.

Or a crack fic.

"Most"

So? What does "most" have to do with anything? Some roommates are best friends too.
