[[File:The amoracurious flag.png|thumb|The amoracurious flag.]][[File:Amoracurious w question mark.png|thumb|The amoracurious flag with a question mark.]]'''Amoracurious''' is a blanket term for [[aromantic]] individuals who are curious or open to experiencing or engaging in romantic relationships despite not feeling [[Romantic Attraction|romantic attraction]]. This may be done for reasons such as wondering whether or not they would like a romantic relationship or be capable of experiencing romantic attraction. It may also be because the individual wants to see if they have an orientation beyond aromantic. An aro may even enjoy aspects or behaviors from said experience, but remain aromantic and desire a similar relationship, which can be [[Alterous Attraction|alterous]] or [[Queerplatonic Relationship|queerplatonic]]. This term also applies to those who are exploring/questioning whether they are [[greyromantic]].
This term is primarily for aromantic individuals who want to experiment or see if they like romance, romantic relationships or can have romantic attraction, and is unrelated to gender-based attraction in orientation. If one were to be curious or go beyond amoracurious and wonder if they have feelings for a specific gender, they may be [[androcurious]], [[gynecurious]], or [[bicurious]] depending on the individual.

The prefix "amora" comes from the Latin word "''amor''," based on the Roman god, Amor, who is the god of love and harmony. The "-curious" suffix comes from any experimental feelings, or an openness to have experiences outside of one's usual romantic orientation.
