Boris · Answer 1

The correct answer is A. Platonic.

Explanation:

The platonic love is characterized by a relationship that is more spiritual or sentimental rather than physical. If Billie and Pat do not want to to take another step to their relationship and they hang out all the time but aren't boyfriend and girlfriend, so the relationship would be described as platonic. This kind of love has an absence of physical or sexual desire.
