Reciproflexible

Reciproflexible is an a-spec identity where one normally is only attracted to someone once one knows they reciprocate that attraction, but occasionally can experience attraction to someone who one knows or assumes does not reciprocate that attraction. This can be for any form of attraction, such as (but not limited to) sexual attraction, romantic attraction and platonic attraction.

The type of attraction can be combined with reciproflexible, so for example, one can be reciprosensual flexible. The gender(s) one is attracted to can also be combined in this identity - for example, if one is attracted to all genders but gender plays a role in attraction, one could be omni reciproflexible.
