i wanna be in a qpr sooo bad. like no i can't handle romance i just want to experience deep platonic love. oh my goddd being cupio and wanting this so badly is making me insane. i just wanna care for somebody, love somebody. and i feel so out of place with the community, because i also don't feel romantic attraction but i want to, so badly, and its not something most people r gonna get unless they also experience it. raaaaaaa universe give me a qpp and give them to me now!

you guys need to stop parroting my life story back to me okay

okay so. i'm feeling really frustrated because a fandom i'm in insists that the main pairing can only be romantic and stuff, and there's quite a lot of people who have said that they would prefer if they were queerplatonic and everytime someone says "i like the pairing when it's queerplatonic better" it's seen as problematic because god forbid a relationship isn't romantic and this fandom is filled with amatonormativity and it's just so fucking frustrating i absolutely hate it there. even when i try to carefully cherry pick who i interact with i still keep finding people who tell me that actually holding hands and trusting each other is only romantic. the anger will probably pass but right now i don't really care

also totally unrelated but i don't think of my friends as family. just wanted to get that off my chest

Screw amatonormativity in fandom spaces, what are some of your guys' favourite queerplatonic ships? Personally I love queerplatonic MiriTama (my hero academia)!

This more like a story but:

When I was younger and still thought that I was biromantic I assumed that I had a crush on someone and they had a crush on me so we got together. Then later on when I realized that I was aroace we agreed that it was just a qpr but I don’t even think that it is that, I feel like we’re just friends. The issue is that I’m scared to tell them in case I make them sad because I love them but only as a friend. And if they have a negative reaction I could lose my friends since we’re in the same friend group. I just have no idea what to do and I need to get it off my chest. I know that they’ll understand how I feel because they’ve experienced something like this before and haven’t had the guts to tell someone (they’re poly btw). I just don’t want to upset anyone but I’m anxious that I will.

I really hope they understand! You can't help how you feel attraction and you both sound like great friends
