Got some news for you - now it seems that ANY platonic friendship gets sexualised in some people's minds. For me, I think someone that thinks that way is severely limited by their own expectations that ALL relationships MUST be sexual. And we all know that that just isn't the case.

It's almost as if people are attracted to everyone they ever meet / talk to.

I caught up with a friend of the opposite gender a while ago, and these two women sitting next to us asked if we were on a Tinder date.
