Lyciromantic - a term for someone who does not experience romantic attraction unless they believe that the other individual is romantically attracted to them first.

So I've been doing some thinking about my sexuality, as I was questioning being aroace again. While the ace part felt right and probably always will, the aro part still didn't. So I took a look at some arospec labels and discovered lyciromantic. It could explain why I rarely experience romantic attraction towards real people (fictional characters are a different story, but I don't feel like getting into that).

In the past, I've realized that I've only felt true romantic attraction to those who confessed they liked me. However, I never got with them due to this being in ninth grade, and I was not ready for a commitment such as that back then. The feelings eventually faded because they took the rejection well and we moved on.

I feel like that's still the case. If someone told me they liked me, as long as I knew them at least a little bit and they weren't a man (still a lesbian lol), I'd most likely return their feelings. I'd be too anxious to make the first move anyways, especially since I have a hard time handling rejection, so I feel like this label fits.

Also, the flag is really pretty. That is all. ^_^
