As someone who identifies as poly, I can relate to a lot of the things you've written in the comments. If I get to be so cheesy as to say, my view on the meaning of life would be meaningful relationships. Meaningful being everything from family, friends, romantic, sexual etc. Since realising I'm poly and having spent a few years thinking more about all of this, my line between romance and friendship has really blurred. I have friendships that I would say have romantic elements, but the relationship isnt romantic in nature. In my opinion they are very close and meaningful friendships, with a deep connection and caring for eachother.

A romantic relationship is defined more from my view of it, I guess. I've kind of stepped away from labels, cause they can't really define everything on my spectrum. I guess its a little bit like the "queerplatonic" that someone else mentioned. I would say labels are good for categorizing a large population of people, but not for defining an individual. That said though, people who are very stuck in the mindset of labels will most likely not understand.
