I made this account just to answer this question even though I despise this toxic site. The other day the woman I love D (not going to give her full name because people on this shithole site are extreme nosebags which was one of the many reasons I left this toxic site to begin with) was showing me a couple who weren't very good kissers. So I told D how I would kiss her if I was ever so lucky and fortunate enough to. I wanted to tell her how I would kiss her because I'm totally in love with her head over heels in love with her. When I told D how I would gaze into her eyes and kiss her lips and lower lip and touch the tip of her tongue with mine and kiss down the side of her neck and down to her collar bone and back up again and gaze into her eyes while touching her chin as I kiss her lips again it was almost like what you're describing on the lips and neck. Truth be told I haven't kissed anyone since early 2005 and I secretly hope she'll be my first kiss again.
But on a side note I was kinda disappointed when I read you say guy friend because I kinda got sad hoping that D doesn't think of me as just a guy friend. I always hoped she thinks of me as more.
But good luck on your situation though. Hope things work out for you. Keep me posted
Unless he's from a foreign culture where kissing on the lips and neck is considered as a greeting (which I doubt there is), he's definitely getting away with kissing you cause you think it's platonic. Trust me lol, he's only saying it's platonic just to kiss you on the neck and lips. If it were cheeks then yeah that would've been friendly or a greeting
So. I know everyone on here is saying no.
It’s really about the intention behind the kiss. If you’re in a relationship, a kiss on the lips is NOT okay.
However, in my culture (I’m Mexican American), we greet people with a kiss on the cheek. Sometimes a kiss on each cheek. And it is COMPLETELY a greeting and not anything romantic or sexual or anything. We give a kiss on the cheek when we greet someone that’s either a family member (especially our elders), and friends.
However. You said on the lips and neck. That’s not really platonic, tbh. He might just be using it as an excuse to kiss you.
Yes. It is such thing as that. But what you have going on is definitely not it. This guy is getting away with it because you think that this is what you're supposed to do and that's not what you supposed to do. Set boundaries, this guy is not your friend. He wants more than that. And it's inappropriate.

I have several platonic guy friends and not once have they kissed me on the lips! I -might- get the occasional hug from them, if that. A kiss on the cheek would be okay-ish, but on the lips? NO.
I think he might like you- call it a hunch, haha. There's nothing platonic about that kind of kiss anon. Like at all. Anyone will tell you that, especially your parents.
Nope. Not platonic.
Platonic kisses are meant for the cheek such as the French faire la bise. A kiss on the lips between the same sex is platonic to some cultures.
A kiss on the neck & lips has sexual undertones, particularly among Anglo/American culture. And this is almost universal to varying degrees around the globe (some cultures lip kissing was irrelevant till Anglos got involved).
I believe it can be a thing but the people in question would have had to been socialized to think of the difference
In south africa it is custom to greet close friends and family with a kiss on the lips. So yeah kisses like that can be paltonic
If your guy friend is single, it isn't platonic. He may not want a RELATIONSHIP, but he is definitely sexually attracted to you.
I think that depends on how YOU FEEL about it.
Is it platonic to you?
Also, is it bad if it's not platonic, or is that ok?
No, its not a thing, personally, I think he likes you and if nothing else likes you and doesn't even realize it.
I don't kiss my guy friends on the lips or anywhere else for that matter just like I don't do that with family members. Gross. Everyone's different though.
Would he kiss his male friends on the neck and lips? There's your answer.
No, he likes you, and is trying to show you. Do you like him?
It's not even a thing here in latin america, and we are really touchy and all.
Platonic? Pfft!!! That's just a reason to just you. Just get him a girlfriend it become one.
God, help these men!!!
Yeah in our mexican culture and french culture it is a thing.
I've never done that with a friend. The necks to sensual.
I guess in can, if doesn't lead anywhere into sex.
Depends on the kiss I think.
This is how Italy screwed the entire Europe. They're always kissing and touching everyone the meet.
Next time you kiss him touch his Dick. If he’s hard he wants to fk you.
Not in America. Unless you kiss a family member as a peck on the lips or cheek.
If I'm kissing a bitch on the lips, it means I'm working my way down to her snatch.
No, he probably has feelings for you. As you too, may still have for him.
