What it feels like
Your heart opens through the mind first. A fascinating opinion, an odd hobby or a shared cause can make someone glow in your eyes. Flirting often looks like friendship, so it can take a while for people to realise you are interested. Conventional romance can feel like a costume that does not quite fit, and you would rather write your own rules about love than follow anyone else's script.
Space is part of how you love. Closeness feels best when both people keep their own friends, interests and quirks, and a relationship with no room to breathe can make you cool off fast. Fairness and equality matter enormously, and you are attracted to people who are kind to everyone, not only to you. The bond you build tends to feel like friendship with a spark, and it can last.
Accepting love. You see people for who they really are and adore them for their oddities.
Detachment can protect you from feelings you would rather not have. Letting someone close enough to see you wobble is brave, and worth it.
You love as a friend first and a partner second. A relationship with independence, honesty and shared ideals suits you best.
Community work, design for good and anything innovative can suit you. Work that gathers people around a good idea feels like a pleasure.
