Also the third attraction, where I’m attracted to someone in a non romantic and a non sexual way. Idk what it is but there’s some people I see and I’m super attracted to them but in a romantic or sexual way

i identify as heteromantic bisexual. i’ve been accused of my romantic orientation being only based on internalized homophobia or misogyny, which isn’t the case. i just haven’t found a woman i’m interested in dating or pursing romantic relationships with, but i do know of a few woman that i’ve definitely been physically attracted to

Maybe? The attraction definitely goes deeper than just friends but definitely not romantic or sexual, idk it’s hard to explain

Not even just my friends, I could see some random person on the street and NEED to become close with them, cause I also don’t feel this way for most of my friends
