After giving it some thought, I have decided it is best that I no longer run this blog.

Now, I have quite a few reasons for such. As much as I enjoy spreading positivity and community through this blog, I just don't feel that I should oversee it for any longer given many of my labels have changed, and I can no longer quite relate to the term (I've been in a romantic relationship for the last few months, and contrary to my prior belief I am not completely aroace).

Additionally, it's been a bit difficult to even remember to check for asks and such with being as busy as I have been with school. I just haven't been able to keep up with it anyways.

As much as I didn't want it to come to this, I will no longer be active on this blog.

I will however keep it up so there's access to all the previous posts. I will also keep the discord server up as well, just please know I will not be active there either (and I may make a friend of mine the new moderator of it).

Hopefully you all understand. Just know I appreciate you all quite a lot and wish you the best, and I really am sorry about this.

qpr culture is sleepovers where you share basically everything to each other <3

idk if this is a weird question. does queerplatonic attraction have to be the same as whatever other orientation(s) you have? like, if you are a gay man, could you have a qpp who is a woman? does it not matter bc it's not the same thing?

i feel this depends on who you ask but in my opinion I feel that if the qp attraction does not include romantic attraction it doesn't necessarily have to align with your sexuality/romantic orientation

qpr culture is having 3 conversation modes: sharing our deepest darkest secrets, sharing things that we love/are interested in, and the silliest stuff possible.

what do you think qpr culture is? Is it everything you've agreed with or is there something more that you would like to say?

"qpr culture" isn't a literal thing or something set- it's shared experiences, more personal ones, some things very few can relate to (though it's still quite valid!)

qpr culture is different and special to everyone, no experience is right nor wrong. the things I "agree" with aren't any more correct than others, I simply can't relate to them and don't have a comment (which is perfectly fine)

and honestly I don't have anything to add.

hi I have a question!

what’s like, the qpr version of a crush. Like what would that be called?? Still just called a crush or does it have some other label

some call it a squish !

[qpr-culture-is]

Qpr culture is not wanting to have to explain what a qpr is for the 20 millionth time

qpr recipromantic culture is always having qp feelings for someone and mistaking them for romantic despite not feeling romantic attraction for someone until you've already committed to the relationship lmao

Hi! I sent an ask in last month looking for some words of wisdom about a platonic crush of mine. I just want to say thank you for your advice, and I’m happy to report that they feel the same way about me and we’re officially going on a date next week! Thank you!!

that's great! and you are so welcome

QPR culture is having a sleep over with your zucchinis and then going on a brunch date the next morning and it's the best thing ever

QPR culture is calling your zucchinis your partners to your coworkers because all of them are cishet allos and explaining that takes too long/ it's the only way they take your relationship seriously ;-;

i haven't been on Tumblr for a few months but I FINALLY HAVE A QPR WITH ONE OF MY ONLINE FRIENDS‼️‼️‼️ it's honestly something I'd been struggling to ask them but I finally did!!! next step is polyam qpr (they're polyam too😝💗)

congratulations!!

[qpr-culture-is]

this is more a question to people in qprs where you also engage in sexual intimacy, how do you go about having that conversation with your partner??

given I am a minor and have no such experience, this is definitely something others are going to have to answer

[qpr-culture-is]

hi! this is more of a question: how can i explain queerplatonic and alterous attraction to someone in relatively simple terms? it's okay if you don't have an answer! thank you in advance :)

it simplest terms I personally would say something that isn't quite platonic but also not quite romantic, it's something else entirely but usually includes aspects of both

[qpr-culture-is]

So this isn't so much an experience more a question

I asked my irl bestie to be my platonic valentine on Feb 14 (for the record I'm aroace) and I kinda wanna ask my friend if we could be in a qpr or something similar but how do I know if I'm sure?

🦋 (if this isn't taken)

I'm assuming you mean if you're sure you want that (if not send another ask and correct me)

I'm just going to say you probably wouldn't think about asking if you didn't want one/wasn't sure and that you should go for it !

This is something that I was curious on others' opinions on, since I don't think I've seen anyone else express this sentiment- i don't think qprs and romantic relationships necessarily need to be mutually exclusive? I've seen a few people express worry about their qprs "becoming" other relationships- and while that is possible, it doesn't necessarily need to mean that it stops being a qpr entirely?

I like to think of it like this: a platonic relationship can become romantic but that doesn't necessarily mean you stop being friends- lots of people say their romantic partners are also their best friend- and that relationship moving further into a sexual relationship doesn't negate the past two. To me, qprs are a separate relationship type that I can mix and match just like any of the others, so some of my queerplatonic relationships are also romantic- the two relationship labels just cover separate areas of our relationship as a whole. The queerplatonic elements didn't go away, and some other solely romantic relationships I've been in didn't include the same things as my qprs.

Of course, relationships can change, your feelings towards someone can change over time and certain labels just don't fit anymore. But I was curious if this is a "just me" train of thought or something. I tend to be entirely abnormal when it comes to relationships and understanding how they work for other people (autism, aroace, poly, etc, you know)

i absolutely agree! i don't see why the label can't be used with others

qpr culture is being mutual (bpd) fps!!
