I need to ask what the boundaries in platonic friendships are. Obviously, the line is drawn when sex actually takes place. The question is addressed to how platonic friendships define the lines of respecting the serious romantic relationships of their friends.

 

1. As a friend who has significant history with your friend, do you expect that you take up a higher rank than the serious romantic relationship your friend has?

Nope. As a good friend I graciously allow the romance to hold the position and power of #1.

Absolutely not.

I play second fiddle, but never gooseberry.
