Peony AplArospec, Passion Flower AplAcespec

Peony AplArospec - Someone who is both on the aplatonic and aromantic spectrums that experiences more romantism than platonism. This could, for a few examples, mean that they are greyromantic and aplatonic or light greyromantic and dark greyplatonic, that they are romance favorable and friendship indifferent, that they are quartromantic(link) and demiplatonic, or simply that their position on aplatonic spectrum is more noticeable due to situations involving friendship coming up more than romance. The examples are not the only ways one can be peony aplarospec.

Did you know the first appearance of aplatonic was from an asexual person? "Aplatonic" was first coined on the AVEN forums by an alloromantic asexual man in 2012. He was using it to describe the experience of only loving his friends that he would later go on to date/develop romantic feelings for. While the term was independantly coined on Tumblr a few years later, and is often associated with aromanticism, our history is linked with asexual history, and our doors have always been open to aplatonics of all kinds.

The original thread is still viewable on the Internet Archive today.
