Casually Sweet?

Yesterday, I had a very fun movie date with my good buddies. The movie was about no strings attached relationships. That certain relationship where you're not friends, you're not lovers but have sex? Yep, that one. 


After watching the movie, I had an epiphany of some sort, what if we skip the relationship, skip the sex but maintain the "zsa zsa zsu", "butterflies in your stomach" or "heart skips a beat" moments? So, maybe you can be friends (as most people start from being friends), but you can do what couples do, without the commitment, without the love and without the sex? As a girl, I find it very "kilig" when a guy surprises me. It is especially sweet for me if he makes me laugh. I also find it striking when a male friend offers his hand for me to hold. And believe me, having more than a dozen guy friends, this is very sweet and unusual at the same time. Would it ever be possible to do special things for a person without falling in love? Is is possible to make him/her feel special minus the "love" part? Would that even be possible? 


If such setup exists, what would it be called then? Without the sex part, "friends with benefits", "no strings attached" or "fuck buddies" would definitely be wrong. Special friends? But then again, you are more than friends yet nothing close to being a real couple. Mutual understanding would also be out of the question, as you don't have any understanding of some sorts, you are just particularly doing sweet gestures to one another. So, what will be your relationship be called? 


In a world, that lives and breathes labels, such a setup would be demanded of a label. However, does it really need a name? If you are happy where you stand and how it makes you feel, does it really have to have a label? No? That's what I was also have in mind. 


For something that does not need labels, does it need rules? What if one falls in love and the other does not feel the same? Should there any be ground rules before partaking into it or only one rule applies? Do the sweetest things but never fall in love.  It's only proper, right?


Humans have come a long way from the usual relationship status quos. We have gone from getting married to living together, from being in a relationship to casually enjoying sex. In the end, as long as no one gets hurt, achieves happiness and enjoys life who cares about labels?
