The cheyenne line is a
psychological line that separates platonic
friendships and intimacy. The cheyenne line doesn't have to include sex, though it often occurs as people open up and be honest with someone else about matters that
significantly affect them.
Lindsey: How was your date?
Marly: It was good, he crossed the cheyenne line when he drew a line from my nose to my lips
and then kissed me.
Lindsey: What after?
Marly: We talked for two hours in my car about my divorce and my mother's passing.
Lindsey: Oh did you
have sex.
Marly: Yea... We had a really honest and intimate
conversation.
