I don't have an opinion either way on this, but there's an 
interesting and rather thoughtful (if tongue-in--cheek at times) 
discussion of the relationship here:

At the end, the author admits that the evidence he (?) adduces only 
shows that the relationship is passionate - whether passionate 
friends or passionate lovers is moot.  But it makes one think.
