How To Understand Platonic Love And Friendship. by emotions1: 10:43am On Dec 29, 2015
Finding it hard to understand your feelings towards your friend?
confusing that the person is becoming more than just a friend or is just a feeling?
this will help you know about what platonic love is and achieve stronger friendships without the unnecessary confusion of feelings or making your friendship relationship awkward with your friend.


the steps are as follows:

1 understand the difference between what love really is and what is platonic love:

love is an emotional attachment with a special person expressed through action, care and affection and it is bond between people. different types of love exists for different relationships for example, a mother and daughter have familial love, partners have romantic love.

note: the love between friends is platonic love. platonic describes a relationship that is purely spiritual and not physical. if a guy and a girl hangout all the time but aren't boyfriend and girlfriend, they'd describe their friendship as platonic.


2 consider your feelings about the person: Do you think them romantically or erotically? feelings such as these suggests you might have a different love for this person if you don't have strong feeling about that person and just to hangout with him, then you most likely have a platonic love for them.


3 do not mistake your love for something more: one of the most common confusions occur when people mistake their affection towards their friends as something deeper. whether consciously or subconsciously it is easy to mistake feelings of love

so please stay in that friendzone don't even start something you know is No grin



4 understand how strong platonic love can be: it is perfectly normal for people to experience intense feelings for those they care about without the love being of a romantic nature. very similar to that of actual love,platonic love creates a powerful attachments between people
