Quick Disclaimer: I wrote most of this book before coming out as non-binary! I may use my birthname and female pronouns, but those do not currently honor me. Hi! My name is Lane, and I use they/them pronouns. Hope you enjoy!

Just like how fray was the opposite of demi, this is the opposite of lith.

As we learned before, lith is feeling attraction, but having no desire to act on it. Cupio is the other way around where the person wants a relationship.

Basically, this is not a situation that requires one in order to have the other. A cupio person is technically ace/aro, but it is how they react to being ace or aro. They are not attracted to specific people, but still want to have a relationship with someone.

This is another one that is often misconceived a lot, as again, it sounds like a behavior rather than an orientation. However, it could be described like this:

You go to a new restaurant, and you don't feel any need to try anything, but you know you'd like to eat. So you go in, order something, and even though you didn't really want that specific food at first, you are now enjoying it.

I hope that made sense to all of you, and as always, questions will always be accepted and encouraged! I love you to bits, sorry for it being so long, I appreciate those of you who stuck with me <3
