Quoiromantic, also known as WTFromantic, describes not being romantically categorizable, being unable to tell the difference between differing kinds of attraction, being unsure about experiencing romantic attraction or not, and/or not feeling the concept of "romantic attraction" to be relevant to oneself.[1][2][3][13] The term "wtfromantic" was first used flippantly by Sciatrix in 2011,[27] and "quoiromantic" was proposed as a synonym by Cor in 2012.[28][29] Quoi is the French word for "what."[18]

Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week (ASAW) is an annual, international event that aims to spread awareness and acceptance of aromantic spectrum identities. It works to spread awareness of the identity while celebrating the existence of those who identify as such. It takes place the first full week in February, usually following Valentine's Day. It began as a way to unify those in the aromantic community who found it difficult to share their experiences with others. The first week was recognized in November 2014, under the name Aromantic Awareness Week, though it was moved to February in 2015. The new date also included the use of the word "spectrum" in a strive to be inclusive to all.[8]

Desinoromantic people do not experience "full-on" romantic attraction, but do experience "liking" someone instead of loving them romantically; the attraction then goes no further.[1][18]

The aromantic spectrum, abbreviated as arospec[1] or aro-spec[2], refers to romantic orientations that are aromantic or are closely related to aromanticism when placed on a spectrum ranging from aromantic to alloromantic.[1][2][3]

Frayromantic people only feel romantic attraction to people that they do not have a strong emotional bond with. Once they form an emotional bond with that person, that attraction disappears or fades. This identity may be seen as a counterpart to demiromantic.[1][2][3][22]

It is also used by people whose aromantic identities are conditional, unreliable, or atypical to societal expectations, and by people who simply do not wish to label it further.[1] Identities under the aromantic umbrella are closely connected as part of a broad community.

Cupioromantic describes those who do not experience attraction but do desire a romantic relationship.[1][2][3][19] The term "cupio", as a verb, is the Latin word for "I desire."[20]

Aromantic, often shortened to aro, describes people who do not experience romantic attraction,[13][14] or experience little-to-no romantic attraction.[15] One of the meanings of the A in LGBTQIA+ is Aromantic.[13] Aromanticism is a romantic orientation and may involve forms of attraction that are not necessarily romantic, or interests in relationships that are intimate in other ways. There is no singular experience of aromanticism.[15]

The term was originally coined as "lithromantic" by Ian, who uses the Tumblr screenname stopanthropomorphizingme, as early as May 22, 2014.[26]

Autoromantic describes people who elicit romantic attraction from themselves, by themselves. They may not desire romantic activities with others but may enjoy being romantically intimate with themselves.[3][13]

Recipromantic people only experience romantic attraction after knowing that the other person is romantically attracted to them—that is, when it is reciprocated.[1][2][3][13]

The term grayromantic includes, but is not limited to, people who feel low amounts of romantic attraction, rarely feel romantic attraction, only feel romantic attraction under specific circumstances, or are not sure if they experience romantic attraction. It may be considered a romantic equivalent to gray-asexuality.[1][2][3]

Many websites and resources are available for learning more about the aromantic community and the spectrum itself, such as AUREA (Aromantic-spectrum Union for Recognition, Education, and Advocacy).[6]

Aroflux is an identity that operates along the aromantic/alloromantic spectrum.[16] People who identify as aroflux may experience their romantic orientation as fluctuating between experiencing and not experiencing romantic attraction, or that attraction is being experienced to alternating or changing degrees.[2][3][17]

Sometimes the flag for aromantic itself is used for the aromantic spectrum overall, though there is an additional design specifically for the aromantic spectrum.[3][30] The spectrum-specific flag design was posted to Tumblr on August 6, 2020, by Potion of the Flag Archive blog. It has five equal-sized horizontal stripes, and the creator suggested the following meanings for the colors: dark green for aromanticism in all forms, light green for diversity in attraction and experiences, light yellow for the aromantic community and its history, teal for pride in an aromantic identity, and dark teal for recognition of aromanticism as its own separate identity from asexuality.[31]

Demiromantic describes people who do not experience romantic attraction until they have formed a deep emotional connection with someone,[1][21] according to the most common definition.[21] Other definitions of this romantic orientation are only experiencing limited romantic attraction,[21] or falling somewhere on a spectrum between aromantic and romantic; the latter definition overlaps with one for grayromantic.[9]

On the overall aromantic flag, grayromantics are represented by the pale green stripe, found underneath the darker green stripe on top.[23] A flag specifically for grayromanticism was created by tumblr user lesbiandoe on or before September 22, 2014. The flag was based off of the common greysexual flag by Milith Rusignuolo, but with green stripes instead of purple to represent aromanticism instead of asexuality.[24][25] It's meanings are,

While it is commonly assumed that romantic and sexual attraction go hand in hand,[4] evidence suggests that a statistically significantly percentage of people experience inharmonious attraction with sexual and romantic orientation.[5] In one study, 1% of the sample size (4 people) identified as asexual or aromantic.

A queerplatonic relationship is a non-sexual, non-romantic partnership with an emotional strength that may be seen as beyond a friendship[9][10][11] since it has the prioritization and commitment usually considered to be part of romantic relationships.[10] Queerplatonic relationships do not fit the "traditional" models of friendships or sexual relationships.[9][11] Many queerplatonic relationships involve someone who is within the asexual spectrum,[12] but people in them may be of any sexual orientation or gender.[10][12]

Aegoromantic, less commonly known as anegoromantic, also previously known as autochorisromantic, describes those who enjoy the concept of romance but do not have a desire to participate in romantic activities. Aegoromantic individuals may have romantic fantasies, enjoy romantic media, or engage in shipping in fandoms, but they tend to feel little to no romantic attraction in real life and typically do not desire a romantic relationship.[1][2][3]
