How does one establish that characters care about each other without everyone assuming it's sexual? Or is that simply not possible in this day and age?
By not being a sex-obsessed autist who assumes everything is about sex to begin with, as you evidently do.
By the person being abundant enough, then doing a favor and not expecting sex in return.
What are their characters? You might be able to make the reader predict or at least understand their actions.

Were you this deprived of regular human contact in your life that you can't think of how people can care for each other without it being sexual? I don't know if writing is the best hobby for you.
It's weird cause a few years ago "bromance" was a big thing, but now everyone just thinks they're gay

They're just trying to undermine male companionship because it is the strongest bond there is.
Whoever "they" are, are either jealous or scared.

Read the Iliad, Achilles and Patricolus

There was nothing romantic about these guys
Only faggots see homo shit whenever two men meet
As long as you don't hint that some characters have something then people won't believe there's anything between them. And if people believe it even tho there was no hint towards it then they are retards. And you should not care about the opinion of retards

>implying there hasn't been tons of criticism of the Iliad in recent years implying a homosexual relationship between Achilles and Patroclus
its a terrible interpretation of the text but still some people made that connection, literally nothing is safe from queer theory

People thought the sisters in Frozen were lesbians. Fuck, what's wrong with people that they think every relationship has to be sexual?
>>7712209
No one but tumblrs and weirdos think that, and even then they're being slightly ironic about it. I think you're projecting your homovision on everyone.

But Greeks were systemic homers

Those people never had a true friend, someone they could barely their souls to. Pity. The way I see it, the only difference between a gay relationship with a man and a platonic one is the sodomy.

Sure, between old men and young boys. A homosexual relationship between two adult males of similar age, especially those of the warrior class, was still absolutely haram.
