Doraric attraction or dorare is a desire to be close to, serve, help and even worship someone in awe arising out of an adoration which derives itself from attractions that are neither explicitly romantic, nor explicitly platonic. It is considered a mix of spiritual, emotional, and alterous attractions. One may experience attraction that fits multiple types at once, or has characteristics of multiple types of attraction while not strictly falling into any type.
A type of orientation for those who say âI adore youâ, but they donât mean romantically or explicitly platonically. It is a means of expressing intense feelings for someone (such as passion), but it isnât inherently sexual, romantic, platonic, etc.
History
The term may have been coined by Tumblr user Vi, of beyond-mogai-pride-flags, on or before July 5, 2018.[1]

Flags and Symbols
The doraric flag was coined by a wiki user going by Willow on December 26th, 2020. The light purple stands for grace and spiritual bonding, the pale yellow stands for adoration and kindness, the pink represents love and passionate mental/emotional exchange, the rainbow represents the nature of attraction and how it can surpass human language, and the purple diamond represents the uniqueness and special-ness of every individual and every relationship, and how irreplaceable a bond is.
The flags for enby-, masc-, and femmdorare were created alongside the term by Tumblr user Vi, of beyond-mogai-pride-flags, on July 5, 2018.[1]
