What makes two lines parallel and need the both be in the same coordinate plane?

Parallel lines are two lines that are the same distance apart everywhere, and never intersect. That is, if they were to be infinitely extended they would never meet, and the measurement between them is always the same.
My understanding is that they must also be in the same plane, however two planes can be parallel.
