Attraction umbrella terms part 4: distant attraction

Distant attraction includes attraction types that don’t involve intensely felt or intimate aspects, such as acquaintanceships and similar relationships. Could also describe a repulsion to intimacy or favorability towards casual interactions.

I’ve never seen another term that describes this set of experiences, but I feel like the desire for relationships that lack intimacy can be important to define in some cases.

Flag without and with symbol:

ID: two images of a four striped pride flag side by side with colors in this order: dark sea foam green, dark periwinkle, purple, and a dark wine purple. The second image has a symbol of two circles on a diagonal axis. The top-left circle is purple with an off-black outline, and the bottom-right circle is the sea foam green. The circles’ outlines are connected by a diagonal off-black line, with its own thick dusty lavender outline. End ID.

queen of tears pisses me off because haein and hyunwoo know each other so well but don't know each other at all like

"she doesn't like it when people touch her hair" "he doesn't drink coffee on an empty stomach" "she doesn't like the bathroom floor wet" "she's not a lightweight so how did you get her drunk"

And the phone password...

Heroes of Olympus AU - Octavian is some sort of semi-famous social media influencer, that either obsessively makes content for a fandom he's been hyperfixated on (like Harry Potter or Star Wars or something) or he makes content with memes, tips and hacks to help neurodivergent ppl (like those "Global undiagnosed autism experience" or "use this study method if you have ADHD").

He started doing this bc he had a lot of things to say about his special interests and no one to talk to bc everyone around him found him annoying, so he started a secret social media account and worked his way up to a well known influencer.

Leo is his biggest fan and has watched all of his videos, with bc he's also hyperfixated on the same fandom or because the tips help him a lot to function. And he immediately recognizes him and his eyes turn into little hearts. He's been obsessed with that dude bc Leo is 100% a pop culture minion and he's been trying to convince his friends to watch his content as well but they just don't get it like he does.

So during the first Greek/Roman meeting, Leo's sitting there, amongst his friends, that are mocking and interrupting his idol, that is only a few feet away from Leo himself, and he has to contain his excitement and not seem weird and scare him off. And then he actually gets to be alone with this man that he's been hyperfixated on for at least two to three years and he thinks he'll explode!!

hi!!! i’m so bad with tumblr but here we go

i am sooooo obsessed with neuvilichi and really any ship between those 3 (especially zc to the point where basically all my friends associate me with it lmfao) and your art is just. ahrhhrhehehegsg yes!!!!!!! tysm for the food they mean the world to me and your art makes me go insane they’re so beautiful i love the silly harbinger and his dragon wifehusbands

i hope you draw more of them bc i am so abnormal over them (i don’t mean this to be. rude or anything i promise 😞😞)

Sdsgsj thank uuu

Glad yall are following my "silly dangerous harbinger and his dragon wifehusbands who easily punt him a whole yard" idea. His taste really is strong men with pretty faces and a distant connection to world power

[outofthehaze]

bisexual women is it awkward/frustrating/invalidating to be around those “girls are so hot but id never have yucky gay sex” kweers?

bc something just went down with a bi acquaintance calling pussy gross. and i’m like thank god i’m a lesbian but i feel awful for bi women who’s ssa isn’t taken seriously by other, self proclaimed bisexuals/“queers”. and the dating scene must be abysmal if you’re trying to date another bi person

[peribirb]

you ever catch feelings for somebody but you've spent your entire life convinced/convincing yourself that you're fundamentally unattractive and broken in a way that makes you unlovable and unsuited to any sort of relationship, and so instead of just enjoying that extra dopamine burst of seeing them around you just make yourself feel miserable for even daring to feel that way in the first place? or is that just me?

[pityroad]

“And what kind of madness is it anyway, to be in love with something constitutionally incapable of loving you back?”

it is natural that I should be attracted to the most distant inaccessible light

Hi, love your love towards itlivesproject and your it lives within content. Are you also excited for the other upcoming sequel game projects like @ bloodboundthesiege , @ nightboundfanfiction, etc

Thanks anon- I love you and your sweet message 🖤🖤🖤

I'm hella excited for the other fanmade projects! With the conclusion of ILW, I don't think I'm alone in trying to find the next series to hyperfixate on lol

@immortaldesiresproject - was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed book 1; not a unique opinion to have, but I thought the ending left so many loose ends.

Not sure how PB will handle the sequel, but what I've seen so far from the fan project looks amazing! The outfits 😭😭 I'm very curious to see how each will handle the aftermath of MC's turning and their relationship between gabe/cas/both

---

@bloodboundsiege I downloaded the demo and am excited to check it out! I will admit that I'm still in the process of finishing the series (currently halfway through book 2). Personally, I didn't gravitate towards Bloodbound as much when it was first released. However, I'm having a good time in this recent playthrough- I might just find a playthrough on YouTube bc I'm impatient and want to fully appreciate the demo lol

---

@thedistantshoresproject Distant Shores, my beloved. It's been so long since I've played the original book, but I remember it being one of my favorites. The possibility of romancing Oliver again is too good for me to not keep an eye on this project ☺

---

@nightboundfanfiction Unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to play Nightbound yet, so I haven't been looking at this project too closely. I've heard wonderful things about the book (the classic PB story of an amazing standalone that deserved more). But if anyone who follows me didn't know about this, here ya go besties 🖤

---

@lawsofattraction3 Fairly new addition to the fanmade project renaissance, but I will be keeping an eye on this one. Joaquin deserved more lol. Y'all might be familiar with @oh-so-youre-a-nerd (Thia)- They've done amazing artwork for ILW (the ILW but make it tarot series is stunning) and they are currently part of this team as a CG artist 🖤

A big, warm hug to the creators of all these projects- I wish you all luck as you continue creating wonderful content for everyone to enjoy☺

I am very tired

The moon is very full,

I think I will sit in the light for a while.

The night is very quiet

I am very far away,

Everything seems to make me cry today.

I took a picture

I said my peace

No reply comes from the night.

[distant-screaming]

One episode into Laws of Attraction I'm already violently throwing up and screaming and crying this is going to be so great
