I’m sorry but wtf are aplatonics. Are you like. Really bad friends. What’s going on here. Somebody pls explain it to me

aplatonic people don’t feel the urge to form platonic relationships.

We may also have trouble identifying what exactly is supposed to separate a platonic relationship from a romantic one, or identifying the demands and expectations for maintaining a platonic relationship.

note that “i don’t feel the need to form friendships and don’t feel the strong connection that other people apparently do” doesn’t necessarily mean they’re bad at it or a dick. aplatonic people tend to be the person who never really makes it past Acquaintances with others, and are typically fine with that.

Also note that one can (as I am) be aplatonic and also alloromantic.
