The first apparent usage of the term queerplatonic was on December 25, 2010 in a thread called Kaz's Scribblings<ref>https://kaz.dreamwidth.org/238564.html</ref>. The term was made out of a desire to describe an aromantic form of relationships, outside the strict categories of romance and friendship.
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>
On March 30th, 2021, Fandom user GoldenStars14 along with Fandom user Brambleybee came up with the terms "mallowfriend" and "marshmallow" to describe queerplatonic partners with a term something other than the terms QPP (queerplatonic partner) and zucchini. Later, on April 9, 2021, GoldenStars14 posted about this on the LGBTA fandom wiki and waited for the other fandom users to respond, most of which who did did so positively, before putting the term onto this page.<ref>https://lgbta.wikia.org/f/p/4400000000000122796</ref>
