'''Queerplatonic relationship''', also called a '''quasiplatonic relationship''', '''quirkyplatonic relationship''', or '''qplatonic relationship''' (abbreviated '''QPR'''), is a term for an intimate, non-romantic committed relationship. It typically goes beyond what is considered normal or socially acceptable for a platonic relationship but is not romantic in nature or does not fully fit the traditional idea of a romantic relationship.[[File:Queerplatonic alt.png|thumb|220x220px|
For some a queerplatonic relationship (commonly abbreviated to QPR) could look like a close friendship, for others it may outwardly appear to more closely resemble a romantic relationship. Queerplatonic relationships may involve some forms of physical affection traditionally considered exclusive to romantic or sexual relationships, such as hand-holding, cuddling, kissing, or having sex. Some queerplatonic couples will live together or get (queerplatonically) married. Queerplatonic relationships can look different for everyone, depending on what the individuals involved are comfortable with.
Queerplatonic relationships are common among [[A-Spec|a-spec]] individuals, however one does not have to identify as a-spec to be in a queerplatonic relationship. One also does not have to be [[queer]] to be in a queerplatonic relationship. Pursuing a queerplatonic relationship is not necessarily mutually exclusive with pursuing romantic relationships. A queerplatonic relationship can be [[monogamous]] or [[polyamorous]]- involving more than two individuals.

On January 22, 2011 the phrase queerplatonic was posted on Tumblr by Meloukhia, also known as S. E. Smith,<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20161023235234/http:/realsesmith.tumblr.com/post/2868581031/word-of-the-day-queerplatonic</ref> where it quickly gained popularity. In May 2014 the term quasiplatonic relationships was coined for aromantics who were uncomfortable with using the term queer.<ref>https://aromanticnerd.tumblr.com/post/85605141698/do-you-think-quasiplatonic-would-be-another-good-qp</ref>
