Due to the ambiguous nature of romantic attraction it can sometimes be difficult to identify when one is aromantic. Romantic attraction is sometimes defined by the actions that one takes during a relationship, such as holding hands, kissing, or cuddling. However, none of these activities alone indicate romantic attraction. An aromantic person may enjoy some or all of these activities in non-romantic contexts, but does not like them in romantic context. Because of this a romantic relationship can closely resemble some queerplatonic relationships or close friendships, therefore, the nature of a relationship is mostly defined by the intentions of the participants. If one or both partners feel romantic attraction and both partners agree to a romantic context then the relationship can be considered romantic. |
