I don't think people get what I mean when I feel I am "attracted", for lack of better words, to someone as an omni-ay person.
When I'm "attracted" to someone, I don't actively seek out intentional, interpersonal interaction with them unless i need to cater to my social needs. It is impersonal. I want to be able to ask them without platonic intentions if they want to come with me while I'm shopping; but they don't have to be around me the whole time. I want to call them while I'm doing my dishes, even if we never speak a word, or they're doing something else. I want us to work on a project together where we do our own part then combine it.
I don't care to see them everyday, but i wouldn't mind it as long as i have my own space to go to. I could tolerate small talk with them everyday, but it would drain me over time. I don't want them to be attracted to me in any way- but if they are, i don't want them interested in pursuing a relationship or deeper connections. I don't want them to reach out to me for anything more than a hello, how ya doing? Once in a while.
