Aroacespike is an orientation on the Aroace Spectrum defined as someone who usually feels no romantic or sexual attraction, but occasionally has rare, sudden, and intense spikes of romantic and/or sexual attraction for a short amount of time, before returning, just as suddenly, to one's normal amounts of attraction.
Aroacespike can be an orientation on its own, or can combined with other orientations. For example, one could be Aroacespike and Pan-, meaning that when one does experience romantic/sexual attraction it can be towards people of any gender.
