Your Romantic Orientation

[Dreamsexual]

Non-real human heteroromanitc, real human aromantic.  If that makes any sense

[SeeYa]

1 - Quoiromantic, shit is complicated o.o;;;
2 - Panromantic, I guess? I have weird preferences that don't strictly relate to ones gender, so I guess this is the best fit?
3 - Romantic Relationship, Probably not 100%, the way I see Romantic relationship vs QPR, I want something somewhere in between, I think, probably, maybe, potentially, ARG!

Not that any of this matters because ain't nothing happening in this space! ='D

Lithromantic. Don't desire any relationship. And I only like cis-men. I'm nearly incapable of having a crush on someone who isn't a cis-male, I just simply need them to both have the body of a man and identify as male. 

[Lunala]

Aromantic. Never been romantically or sexually interested in anyone - ever.

 

I don't really desire any sort of relationship at this point, I very rarely get lonely and i'm just a bit of a loner who would rather be alone instead of around other people so it doesn't bother me. I don't even have many friends. And when I do get lonely I can just hang out with my pets.

Aro for the 1st 2 questions, and qpr for the last. For a qpr, gender doesn't matter to me.

1. I consider myself grey-aromantic (prefer the Brit spelling because "gray-aromantic" looks odd with so many A's), specifically "functionally aromantic" because 99% of the time it's the furthest thing from my mind. I just happen to have landed myself in a relationship somehow, and I've been rolling with it for a little over a year.

 

2. Not quite sure. I put "biromantic" because I'm bisexual, but there isn't enough data for me to draw a conclusion on whether I favor any particular gender or not at all.

 

3. I'm in an LTR right now but I wouldn't actively desire one if I weren't tbqh. There's still a tiny fully aro part of my brain screaming about how illogical and pointless the whole thing is   Fortunately, I can effectively tell it to shut up.

I replied Other to the second question because I don't know whether or not I feel romantic attraction, and I don't understand what it is to begin with. The ideas of a romantic relationship or romantic attraction make absolutely no sense to me. I'm Quoiromantic/WTFromantic.

[Chloe O'Leary]

1) Demiromantic. I've only had 1 or 2 crushes in my life as a result of that and my difficulties forming long-term friendships.

2) Heteroromantic

3) Romantic relationship. Not a high priority in my life and not something I want to rush into, but it would be nice if I could find someone that I could have a long-term relationship with.

I voted other on question two, because I'm not sure (yet) who I'm attracted to, though that group certainly includes men (by 'men' I mean people who identify as male). It may include women and other gender options, though I've never been attracted to specific people in those groups.

I think I want a mix of platonic and romantic - I'm not a very lovey-dovey person so too much romance would scare me off. 

[Manticone]

I am aromantic, but I always sort of loved BBC's Sherlock because, imo, he seems like he would be ace/ aro too - and that would make him a pretty solid friend-match. (I also simply like the character. I think he's grown a lot throughout the course of the series). Basically solid platonic friendships are my jam. 

[Strifed]

Oof, I should've selected Other for the first one and put fictoromantic, but I was thinking of real human beings at the time  I am only romantically attracted to fictional characters, and can not for the life of me feel anything for real people. The closest I've come to having feelings for a real person are celebrities, but that is just an "idea" of a person (of course I don't know them personally or see them face-to-face everyday!). Then when I think about actually being romantic with them (not in my mind/imagination anymore), I get all yucked out, so again it is just the idea of them!

 

So I am aro through and through when it comes to real people! I would love a QPR or just a very close friendship in regards to relationships  I'm the type of person that has a few close friends vs a bunch of acquaintances.

I'm still trying to figure this out, but even if I do, I'm seriously in doubt that I would ever do anything about it. 😕

[ColeHW34]

Either aromantic or panromantic.

Not too sure anymore.

[Duke Memphis]

I'm a man of the heart, not of the body.

[Denoscar]

I used to think I was Biromantic. I used to also identify as Quoiromantic, I still kinda do but less so now that I understand more.
However, ever since I started using Homoromantic to describe me, it has brought me a great deal of joy that I haven't felt from using anything else.
I think this is my subconscious shouting at me, "You finally figured it out".

[Epitaph]

I'm too lazy to brush up on my definitions.

 

But as far as relationships and romance go, I've got it plotted out as to how I function. Sexual attraction doesn't come into play until the very last instances of a relationship for me. I need to know a person's mind first and foremost, then know that I can trust them. Once those factors get a green light I'll start feeling more inclined to intimacy.

 

I can do platonic or intimate as I also understand how I tend to function. In a relationship, I don't care about myself. I can have inclinations to intimacy, but to me they're just extra filler below what matters to me. I just care about my partner and what makes them happy. If they're happy, then I'm happy.

[Jinkx]

I tend to call myself aromantic for the sake of simplicity (and that's what I put on the poll), but if I wanted to get even more specific I would consider myself WTF/quoiromantic. 

 

As for relationships, I would be okay with any of the three. Were it a romantic or queerplatonic relationship, however, it would have to be monogamous. As it is, I am quite all right with my platonic relationships. 😊 

[MollyDMA]

I only want to have a relationship with my pets, no family no friends
