Contributions by: Maddoxofthestars

Definitions and Usage
Romantic attraction describes the desire to have a romantic relationship and engage in romantic acts with a specific person(s). This may involve things like emotional reliance and closeness, kissing, and possibly valuing ones relationship over others.

Related Terms
Romantic attraction labels fall in two main categories: the orientation of the attraction (biromantic, heteroromantic, homoromantic), and the mode of attraction, which may or may not fall on the aromantic spectrum. Many individuals are alloromantic (experience romantic attraction in a standard way). Together, these make up how one's romantic attraction functions.

Flags
While romantic attraction doesn't have its own specific flag, it's often represented by the color green in aromantic spectrum flags (for example, the aromantic flag), and by heart shapes in allo- romantic orientation flags (for example, the biromantic asexual flag).
