Do Ruslana and Varvara count?

Shouldn't this be called "Heterosexual Same-Sex Life Partners"?

Does the heterosexual part means the partners are of heterosexuality.

Does the heterosexual part means the partners are of heterosexuality?

Ok, how did the two guys from Secondhand Lions not make this list? That was the first pair that came to my mind.

Bromance would be a much better word.

The "heterosexual" part is unnecessary, very limiting AND erasing life partners that are bisexual, pansexual, asexual etc. Heck, two people can be gay and actually be platonic best friends with each other. Or one of them can be gay and not see the other romantically.

It screams a very insecure 'no homo!' to me. Bromance would be better.

Since Real Life examples were deleted, shouldn't "Pro wrestling" be removed too?

Just putting it out there, maybe it should be called "platonic life partners" since it can be with opposite sexes as well.

This title is very confusing. I had to read the Platonic Life Partners page before I truely understood this one. It needs a new name, badly.

I think the title is just fine. It doesn't literally mean only heterosexuals of the same sex, and can apply to other sexual orientations, just like how you guys are saying that "Bromance" can apply to girls. Both terms don't SOUND inclusive at face-value, but are used as such. Plus the term "Heterosexual Life Partners" has been used even before this site took notice of it.

Also: "Note that despite the trope name, the characters in question are not necessarily both heterosexual." So they kind of explain it right there.
