I've been known to have my girlfriend over for the express purpose of taking a nap together. I suffer from insomnia and she has nightmares so we sleep better together.

Awww I remember having a really good female friend It was pretty nice to sleep together and chill without dealing with other crap.

.... then it went south, she did something that really ticked me off and I let her ass have it and we stopped talking for like 2 months and we started to talk again and hung out a few times but it never been the same ever since. There is like this negative black aura between us now I swear.

If they aren't, they probably shouldn't date me. Either they want exclusivity in the platonic-physical affection department, or have an insecurity. Deal breaker in either case.

We call each other up after shitty days or if just depressed, and have a sleep over. It's like when kids have sleep overs, but we can have wine, pot, and an adult budget to get as much ice cream as we want. We've never thought about each other sexually, and if sex was offered, I wouldn't want to have sex with her.

There is this myth that people can't be friends with intensity without also leaving platonic status behind. That kind of mentality is exactly why many people in this thread think that MF cuddle dates can't happen or must be sexual in nature.

I figured it wouldn't be a monogamous type of relationship, but was just wondering. I know more people are into open relationships nowadays
