Romance

''[[Romeo and Juliet In Love}}

Romance or romantic love is a feeling of strong attraction toward another person, a mental state of "being in love" with courtship behaviors and focused attention on forming a relationship (or pair bond), and the practice of initiating relationships based on passionate feelings over more practical or ordinary concerns. Romantic love is considered to be a motivation or drive, which is distinct from (but related to) the concept of attachment.

The terms "romance" and "romantic love" are used with multiple definitions, which can be contradictory at times. The philosopher Arthur Lovejoy once wrote that "The word 'romantic' has come to mean so many things that, by itself, it means nothing."

''Collins Dictionary'' defines romantic love as "an intensity and idealization of a love relationship, in which the other is imbued with extraordinary virtue, beauty, etc., so that the relationship overrides all other considerations, including material ones." The concept of romantic love also came to represent the idea of individualistic choice in marriage and sexual partners, although it's rarely realized fully and can be a source of both gratification and disappointment in relationships.

People who experience little to no romantic attraction are referred to as aromantic. Provided by Wikipedia
