[[File:Queerplatonicflag1.jpg|thumb|220x220px|A commonly used queerplatonic flag.|link=https://lgbta.wikia.org/wiki/File:Queerplatonicflag1.jpg]]'''Queerplatonic relationship''', also called a '''quasiplatonic relationship''', '''quirkyplatonic relationship''', or '''qplatonic relationship''' (abbreviated '''QPR'''), is a term for a relationship that bends the rules for telling apart romantic relationships from non-romantic relationships. It typically goes beyond what is considered normal or socially acceptable for a platonic relationship but is not romantic in nature
Queerplatonic relationships are common among [[A-Spec|a-spec]] people, 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 people.

For some people these types of attraction greatly overlap and not all people make a distinction between them. For others they may feel like there is a clear distinction between these feelings. Among those who do feel a distinction, queerplatonic attraction is often described as being stronger and more intimate than purely platonic attraction. Alterous attraction is the desire for intimacy that is neither platonic nor romantic, queerplatonic can be considered an extension of platonic attraction.
Someone who does not experience queerplatonic attraction and/or does not desire queerplatonic relationships may call themself aqueerplatonic. Queerplatonic attraction is not a requirement for a having or wanting a QPR. Some aqueerplatonic people may still want or have queerplatonic relationship, they just do not get
