Another example could be a frayromantic person who dates someone after they lose their romantic attraction.
The sexual equivalent of cupioromantic is cupiosexual. the opposite is orchidromantic.
History
Kalosromantic was coined by Tumblr user acelyssie on or before June 16, 2014.[1] It is unknown when or why the term was changed to cupioromantic.
Flag
The flag was designed by an unknown person on or before July 4, 2015.[2] The color meaning is unknown.
The alternate cupioromantic flag was proposed by an anonymous Wiki user in the October of 2020. This was done to help distinguish between the cupiosexual flag and the cupioromantic flag, as the flags were the same beforehand. The flag was turned upside down, since the aromantic flag is upside down compared to the asexual flag. Another stripe was also added to match the aromantic flag, which, in the same way, has one stripe more than the asexual flag. The pink was changed to peach as a way to show that the desired relationship type is romantic, rather than sexual.
The third alternate cupioromantic flag was proposed by Fandom user idratherhavecake on January 20th, 2021. The first three stripes have the same meanings as the cupiosexual flag, and the final pink stripe was switched out for green to represent being aromantic.
Etymology
The prefix cupio- comes from the Latin word cupio, meaning "to desire" or "to long for".
