Delloromantic refers to someone who experiences attraction to multiple genders and experiences alloromantic style attraction to some genders, but is demiromantic towards other genders. For example, a delloromantic individual may require a close emotional bond with a woman before experiencing any attraction, but they do not need such a connection in order to be attracted to a man.
Delloromantic can be a romantic orientation on its own or can be combined with other orientations. For example, one could be delloromantic and polyromantic meaning that when one does experience romantic attraction they can experience it towards multiple genders, but not all genders.
The sexual counterpart is dellosexual.
