What is a qpr?
queer platonic relationship
I'm aro and qprs get brought up with some regularity in aro spaces. It's honestly a concept I find a little hard to fully wrap my head around (as someone who is totally comfortable as labeling incredibly close and devoted friendships as friendships), but from what I've seen, if people agree they're in a qpr then they're in a qpr. So in that sense you could say that these characters are not because they're not labeling it as such, even if they could tick a lot of the boxes. Kind of similar to how people might look at them and say they're friends, but they're hesitant to consider the other a friend too.
Someone said they are in a qpr. And after looking it up I agreed. But then I thought, could you be in a qpr with someone if you don’t even think your in a qpr? Because although the concepts align. What about the circumstances and what are the conditions?
