== History ==▼
'''Aegoromantic''', also known as '''Autochorisromantic''', is an [[Aspec]] identity (specifically [[Arospec|Aro-spec]]) that describes those who have a disconnection between themselves and the subject of romantic fantasies or attraction. Aegoromantics may have romantic fantasies or enjoy romantic content, but they generally feel little to no [[Romantic Attraction|romantic attraction]], typically do not desire to have romance with another person, or experience romantic attraction that are atypical with [[Alloromantic|Alloromantics]]'.
Some common Aegoromantic experiences include:
*Enjoying romantic content, but lacking the same enthusiasm for a romantic relationship in real life.
*Enjoying "shipping" and maybe also self-shipping, but being [[Romance-Indifferent|indifferent]] or [[Romance-Repulsed|repulsed]] by the idea of having romance with another person.
*Fantasizing about romance, but the aegoromantic person is not involved, they are only a disembodied observer viewing it from a third-person perspective, and not from the first person.
*Fantasizing about romance, but envisioning only other people, such as celebrities or fictional characters.
*Fantasizing about romance, but it involves generic, faceless people, not specific people.
*Fantasizing about romance, but through the perspective of another person rather than as one's actual self.
*Fantasizing about romance, but only imagining oneself, and no other people.
*Fantasizing about romance, but it is idealized and unrealistic. Adding realistic elements to the fantasy makes the idea of romance less appealing or even repulsive.
*Perceiving or recognizing someone as romantically attractive, yet not seeing the appeal of having a romantic relationship with the person in real life. The aegoromantic person may instead prefer to fantasize about them.
*Enjoying romantic content but more for the situation or relationship dynamics in the story lines rather than by one's attraction to the people.
== Etymology ==
Dr. Bogaert derived the term from the phase "Autochoris", meaning "sexuality without identity".
Aego is derived from Latin words with A- meaning "without" and Ego meaning "myself", making the whole word translate to "romantic without myself".
