Heteroromantic refers to a romantic orientation where an individual experiences romantic attraction primarily to people of the opposite gender. This term is often used within the context of the broader spectrum of romantic orientations, which includes various identities such as homoromantic and biromantic. Heteroromantic individuals may identify as heterosexual or may have other sexual orientations while still feeling romantic attraction towards the opposite gender. People who identify as heteroromantic may seek romantic relationships, emotional connections, and intimacy with individuals of the opposite gender. This orientation is distinct from sexual attraction, which may not necessarily align with romantic feelings. Understanding heteroromanticism helps in recognizing the diversity of human relationships and attractions.
