'''Aegoromantic''', previously known as '''autochorisromantic''', is a [[micro-label]] on the [[Aromantic Spectrum|aromantic spectrum]] that describes those who enjoy the concept of romance but have a disconnection between themself and the subject of romantic fantasies. Aegoromantic individuals may have romantic fantasies, enjoy romantic media, or engage in shipping in fandoms, but they tend to feel little to no romantic attraction in real life and typically do not desire a romantic relationship. Oftentimes, their romantic fantasies are viewed from a dissociative third-person perspective, and not from the first person. They usually involve other individuals, such as fictional characters or celebrities with the aegoromantic individual only being a disembodied observer.
Some common aegoromantic experiences include:
* Enjoying romantic content, but lacking the same enthusiasm for a romantic relationship in real life.
* Fantasizing about romance, but the aegosexual individual is not involved, or celebrities, or fictional characters are involved.
*
* Fantasizing about sex, but only imagining oneself, and no other individuals.
* Fantasizing about romance, but it is idealized and unrealistic. Adding realistic elements to the fantasy makes the idea of romance less appealing or even repulsive.
* Perceiving someone as "attractive", yet not seeing the appeal of doing romantic things, like kissing, with the individual in real life. The aegoromantic individual may instead prefer to fantasize about them.
The sexual equivalent is [[aegosexual]].
