Implaalterous, Implalterous, or Inexalterous
Impla- / inex- Never being satisfied with your orientation due to constant self-doubt, causing one to search and seek out something that fits as perfect as possible. Similar to Xum- but not specific to neurodivergent people.
(Impla- / inex- come froms latin words implacatus/inexpletus which means unsatisfied).
Alterous attraction is described as neither being (entirely/completely) platonic nor romantic, & is an attraction best described as wanting emotional closeness without necessarily being (at all or entirely) platonic &/or romantic, & is used in the place of -romantic or -platonic (so say bi-alterous instead of bi-romantic). Someone can be both alterous & romantic &/or platonic & can have varying degrees on attraction, ultimately feel discomfort / unease / or just a sense of inaccuracy in calling it wholly romantic or platonic. Similar to queerplatonic/quasiplatonic/quirkyplatonic attraction but not quite the same.
