What is lithromantic?

Lithromantic is a term used to describe someone who experiences romantic attraction but does not feel the desire for their feelings to be reciprocated or acted upon. This means that they may enjoy the idea of being in a romantic relationship with someone or have crushes on individuals, but do not necessarily want the romantic feelings to be returned.

People who identify as lithromantic may still enjoy experiencing romantic feelings and relationships in a more abstract or platonic way, without the desire for physical intimacy or commitment. It is important to note that everyone's experience of lithromanticism can vary, and there is a spectrum of romantic orientations within the asexual and aromantic communities.

Lithromantic individuals may also use other terms such as lithsexual or lithplatonic to describe their specific experiences and preferences within relationships. It is essential to respect and validate individuals' identities and orientations, regardless of how they may differ from traditional romantic norms.
