'''Delamour''' is a lover who one shares a bond that is so deep, so profound, that the word ‘love’ is just too simple. It’s not [[Sexual Attraction|sexual]], [[Romantic Orientation|romantic]], [[Platonic Attraction|platonic]], spiritual, or any single type of attraction (though it may share elements with them), nor is it simply a combination of multiple types. It’s beyond any label or category or trope of love. It’s a connection that falls outside definitions, that expresses itself in ways that don’t fit with just one type of love. It is a bond so strong, it is unlike anything others could understand without being in such a relationship. A connection on multiple levels. This love does not fit conventional concepts, it transcends them.<ref>https://system-lgbt.tumblr.com/post/182430781213/delamour</ref> |

It’s a love that isn’t just passionate, but is infinitely deep, with no conditions, limits, or anonymity. Words like 'girlfriend/boyfriend’ or 'wife/husband’ or 'partner’ do not feel adequate. Delamours may have trouble describing their love to others and may feel words can never explain the relationship enough. |

Delamour is a lover who one shares a bond that is so deep, so profound, that the word ‘love’ is just too simple. It’s not sexual, romantic, platonic, spiritual, or any single type of attraction (though it may share elements with them), nor is it simply a combination of multiple types. It’s beyond any label or category or trope of love. It’s a connection that falls outside definitions, that expresses itself in ways that don’t fit with just one type of love. It is a bond so strong, it is unlike anything others could understand without being in such a relationship. A connection on multiple levels. This love does not fit conventional concepts, it transcends them.[1]
