Transcendent attraction is characterized as an attraction that combines all intimate, non-familial attraction types while not fitting completely into the definition of any of them.
Transcendent attraction can only be described as feeling like intense, undefined love and/or care, and desire for partnership. Relationships based on this attraction may fully or partially combine aspects of all relationship types.
Despite combining aspects of relationships like romantic, sexual, platonic, and so on, transcendent attraction is not necessarily adjacent to these attraction types and can still be felt by those who identify as aspec for any particular attraction(s). This term can be used by anyone.
Transcendent relationships will often include affection such as kissing or sex, but these actions tend to be based on intimacy rather than attraction.
Transcendent attraction may be considered a form of tertiary attraction.
