The Defining Line.

There's something I've been wondering since about freshman year in high school. Having a serious relationship, as off and on as it was, did not change that.

Is physicality the defining line between relationship and friendship?

I don't want to believe this, but it seems like everyone else does. I even posted a question on my long-dead advice blog about it, saying that, no, it isn't. But I don't have proof of that.

What if all that sets apart a friendship from a relationship is sex? And, obviously, more intense feelings, but... regardless, that just doesn't seem like enough to me.

I can't explain it.

I hope someone can.

Because I'm tired of wondering this.




Time for Google.
