Adoraction

When you adore someone that you are attracted to. Kind of, but not really.

"I adoract you!"

"What is that?"

"It means that I adore you and I am attracted to you."

"Awwwww, I adoract you too!"

That is some true adoraction right there.

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.

Mary identifies as grayromantic because she rarely experiences romantic attraction.

Girl #1: Do you have a crush on Bob?
Girl #2: No, I just have Alterous Attraction to him. It's complicated

Law of attraction

The belief that positive thoughts are magnets for positive life experiences and negative thoughts (i.e. the very cynical definition previously provided for this term) are magnets for negative life experiences.

Based on the law of attraction, if you have a specific desire and focus joyfully on that desire, it will be fulfilled.
