No, But 1 Dimensional Does. The lines may or may not go on forever but that has no effect on whether or not a parallel line will cross.

Yes, you are right. A line segment eventually ends. In fact, a segment has two endpoints. But parallel lines go on forever; they have no endpoints.Example: (arrows indicating they go on forever)_____________________ (these are parallel line segments)
The lines have to intersect because lines go on forever and if then are not parallel then they will collide. Even if they are not parallel by one degree they will still intersect.
Yes, in plane geometry parallel lines continue forever. However, in polar geometry (3 dimensions, as in Earth longitudinal lines), parallel lines eventually intersect at the poles of the sphere,
Parallel means lines (may it be bars, pencils, etc.) that go on forever and never cross.
PARALLEL AND PERPENDICULAR LINESParallel lines can run side by side on forever but perpendicular lines make a 90 degree angle.
