╰→ flag meaning: the grey/blue loosely represents the frey- aspec label (experiencing attraction until actually meeting the person) flag, and grey/orange loosely represents the litho- aspec label (experiencing attraction but not wanting it reciprocated) flag; these both represent that a person’s limerent object differs from the actual person/character they have feelings for, due to the fantasy they have built up in their head and also the highs and lows of experiencing limerence (euphoria, despair, etc). The pinks represent the limerence itself and the thin white lines represent the division between reality and fantasy. The base of the flag itself is loosely based off this [ daydream spectrum flag ], due to the amount of fantasy and daydreaming involved with limerence. A note, the use of fray- and litho- does NOT make this term exclusive to aspecs.
