the diagnostic · one specific person
what is this,
actually?
think about one specific person. someone you feel something for, and you don’t know what it is, and it’s been bothering you.
hold them in your head. we’re going to work out what this actually is.
not a personalitytest. it’s about
them.
14 questions. nothing is stored. it all runs on your device, nobody sees your answers, including me.
it takes about three minutes. there are no wrong answers, and there’s no score to be proud of, only a name for the thing.
the seven kinds, if you’d rather read first
- romantic attraction — wanting to build a life with someone.
- sexual attraction — wanting sexual closeness with someone.
- sensual attraction — wanting to be close and held, with no interest in where it leads.
- aesthetic attraction — finding someone beautiful and wanting to do nothing about it.
- intellectual attraction — wanting their mind, not their life.
- platonic attraction — the friend crush, a “squish”. real, and nobody names it.
- alterous attraction — closer than a friend, not a crush. there’s finally a word.
