romantically frustrated

A person who is generally stressed out and frustrated of being single, or as a result of the absence of a partner. Not to be confused with sexual frustration.

Signs of the romantically frustrated include a strong need to cuddle, touch, hug and hold. Other signs include chewing ice, eating chocolate, peeling labels off of bottles, and watching romantic movies such as "The Notebook."

Grey-romantic

A grey-romantic (gray-romantic) is a person with a romantic orientation that is somewhere between aromantic and romantic.

For example, a gray-romantic may:
-Experience romantic attraction but not very often.
-Experience romantic attraction, but not desire romantic relationships.
-Desire relationships which are not quite platonic and not quite romantic.

One type of gray-romantic is called demiromantic.

Demiromantics do not experience primary romantic attraction for a person, but are capable of experiencing secondary romantic attraction after forming an emotional connection.

Gray-romantics may also prefix a gender orientation to the label, as in "Gray-heteroromantic". See AVEN (asexuality.org) for more info.
I'm grey-romantic. I rarely have a crush, but when I do I'm not interested in a romantic relationship.

romantic attraction

Romantic attraction is difficult to define, as it is made up of many components. The two most distinguishable components are (1) limerance, aka obsessive thoughts about wanting to be near one's crush, to find out their interests, having a "butterflies in stomach" feeling, etc., and (2) a desire to form a romantic relationship, aka wanting to be another's girlfriend/boyfriend/partner, to go on dates and do other romantic-coded activities (e.g. kissing, although not everyone sees kissing as romantic, celebrating Valentine's Day), etc.

For alloromantic people, limerance often leads to a desire to form a romantic relationship, but someone who identifies as grayromantic may experience one without experiencing the other. An aromantic person does not experience romantic attraction. A quoiromantic person may feel that the concept of romantic attraction is inapplicable, or they may not be able to distinguish romantic attraction from other forms of attraction.

Hopeless Romantic

A person that has good genuine intentions. Modern day romance is hell for them. They seek a person that is real and seeks true love. They want a family together and wish to remain together. They get hurt easily because they carry their heart on their sleeves, but despite this, they never loose hope of finding the love of their life. They like the feeling of being in love because it’s their natural high but know that they’ll end up hurt in the end. They typically like love songs and romantic movies. They’re also very romantic (obviously).
