Pragma:
love built on commitment, understanding and long-term best interests, like building a family. Over
time, eros can turn into pragma as a couple grows to honor,
respect, and cherish each other, accepting of differences and learning to compromise. It is everlasting
love rooted in romantic feelings and companion.
Amour: French for
Love.
The prefix is Greek, the suffix is Latin.
Pragamoric (or pragamouric) is gramatically equivalent to romantic or platonic.
Pragamory is a kind of
love; pragamoric love is like romantic
love, but without the romance. Just like how romantic and sexual relationships do not have to coincide, pragamoric and sexual relationships have no need to coincide either.
Pragamoric relationships should not be confused for platonic relationships, nor "friends with benefits" because pragamoric love is a scale in itself.
Platonic≠romantic≠pragamoric.
Many pragamoric couples decide to get married and some
even raise children. Some pragamoric couples have sex, some, or the majority, do not.
An alternate term for this is "queer-platonic", but many people hear that and think "platonic" instead of its own plane of
love.
Mom, meet Dannie, I
love her pragamorically and I want to marry her.
Your pragamouric partner said he wanted to have kids with you.
I'm polyamorous, this is my romantic
boyfriend and this is my pragamoric
boyfriend.
