I was questioning myself about it too. Maybe we misunderstood the question and PLP was ref. about relationships where you have romantic feelings towards someone but you do not actually act on it, therefore it remains a platonic relationship? Idk...

Or maybe PLP had no coffee this morning and is therefore spiraling. Maybe someone was rejected a platonic friendship bc the other person didn't think it was possible.

LMAO!

I confess, I'm spiraling myself between this one and the one we're talking on the voice thread (introvert vs extrovert, and ambivert). :rolleyes::D

But, here is the definition for anyone who cares to check it out. I would consider close friendships, with both genders - as platonic relationships.

In regards to half the person wanting it platonic. How does that work.

I have a friend that I have had for YEARS. When his dick is not doing the thinking for him. I truly enjoy him. He's smart and can be fun. But over the years his dick has taken over more and more.
No matter how many times I've told him I don't want any sexual undertones to our friendship. That I'm happy with our friendship the way it is. He just never gives up. Which means I talk to him less and less.
He tries to sneak in pics of him in some sort of nakedness, or tell me he wishes he could see me.
I can talk sex with anyone. But with him. I don't anymore. It's like inviting him to ask for pictures, or descriptors.

So yes. Some friends. It can be hard to be strictly platonic with when one person obviously would like more. No matter how much I want platonic. I know he wants more.

A Platonic friendship or relationship is one which is close and intimate while being non-sexual. We all have lots of more-or-less casual friendships which don't involve sex, but they need to be special in their intimacy and affection before they're termed Platonic.

I have one particular very close female friend IRL. Our relationship has never been sexual, but her partner has found it awkward sometimes. I've known her fifteen years longer than he has, and in many ways I know her better than he does. And yes, I think he has been jealous of the intimacy she and I share, even though he and I get on fine.

I'm actually in the same position with a male friend I've known 15 years longer than my husband. He knows me intimately in ways my husband will never know because he doesn't share that lived experience. My husband struggles with that at times. He's prone to feelings of insecurity and anxiety when that friend pops up in my life. And that's a hard slog for him. He's got to figure out that shit and confront it when he's ready.

The secret to great relationships: setting and enforcing boundaries. I've learnt that when I assume good intent and am clear with what's cool and what isn't, I have friendships that really develop with trust.
I set boundaries to protect the relationships I want to keep, not the ones I don't care about.
But that's the hard work of life right there...

I'm nosey about platonic opposite sex relationships.

Do you have any that are completely platonic? Do you think you are capable of having a platonic opposite sex friend? Do you think other people are capable of that with you? Do you have the same level of relationship/closeness as a same sex friend?

Most of my friends are same sex. My best friend is same sex but I have opposite sex relationships that are totally platonic. I do get on better with guys most of the time. That could be because I am not a girly girl. Two of my best guy friends are married and I think that helps with keeping it platonic. I talk to their wives. If we go out drinking, there is never any awkwardness if there is platonic touching of each other or kissing cheek goodnights, etc.

I also have one guy friend who is single and he has been one of my best friends for quite a while. He has seen me almost naked, held me when I have cried, wiped my snotty nose, seen me at my best and worst. It has always been a good friendship but there has also always been sexual tension between us. Since I became single, he has wanted more and even though I have those feelings towards him, I won’t act on them because I don’t want to lose the friendship. It is proving difficult because he wants more and it has changed the dynamic of the friendship.

So much this! :)
 
So, I was sitting here thinking about the "platonic" question - is it a platonic relationship if one (or even both or, for those more expansive and adventurous "all") people in the relationship have sexual desire/sexual expectations.

I'd say "yep, still platonic" as long as no one is banging each other, it's still platonic.

It's the difference between "what is" (a close and intimate relationships without sex) and of expectations or intentions. As long as there is no sex it's a platonic relationship, regardless of what could be.

I thought on my platonic relationships and for several of them, though we're not lovers, because of choices and circumstances, that doesn't mean there isn't sexual tension or desire.

We just don't act on it (even though we may flirt or even discuss sexual topics). Platonic relationships can turn sexual, or sexual relationships can turn platonic. Is the potential for sex there? Yep. Is the probability of sex there - nope. Hell, every time you meet a stranger the potential for sex is there, even when the probability is extremely low or zero.
 
Too many equate intimacy with sex. There are many ways one can be intimate in a non-sexual way
 
I am nosey about "Friends," not friends in your life, but the tv show. IMHO the best tv show, ever. Which friends character to you identify with the most?
Rachael - the hot, and sometimes snobby one?
Phoebe - flaky, comfortable in your own skin?
Monica - beautiful, structured, organised?
Ross - smart, just wants to have a family, and gets divorced a lot haha
Chandler - funny, sarcastic, originally scared of commitment, but when he found the right one...
Joey - extremely loyal, horndog

Which one are you??

I’m most like Chandler minus the fear of commitment.

But there is no way this is the best show….
That award goes to Breaking Bad (in my opinion)
