Cupioromantic: someone who desires to be in a romantic relationship, although feels no romantic attraction.

                    Sometimes we fall
                     in love with ideas,
                          not people.

This is the case for people who identify as Cupioromantic. They want a loving relationship with someone they deeply care about, yet they don’t feel much to any actual romantic feelings towards that person. That doesn’t mean they don’t want to be in that relationship.

You may think their relationships are one-sided or unfair for the other person who deeply loves their partner(s) and while it may seem like that at first, do not forget that romantic attraction in not the most important thing in a relationship like this; but instead people themselves. They still care about each other and wouldn’t let their lover go for any invalid reason.

This may not be the most accurate because I myself am not cupioromantic and do not have any say on how relationships involving cupioromantic individuals should work or currently work.

“Mmm” The young sidekick stirs in their sleep. A cold breeze washed over them, helping the tall specimen to wake up. As they slowly flutter their eyes open, a soothing voice could be heard behind them “mornin’~” the voice was familiar yet unrecognisable due to the tired state the young one was in, though a small smile curled upon the raven-haired friend. Their eyes blurry, unable to see the said person, although rubbing their eyes seemed to do the trick. The sidekicks lover was present in front of them, both — hero and apprentice — smiling the same way as they did once they met for the first time. Later on in the day they received a message saying they were needed. As soon as they read the message the hero put on his outfit — the only thing people could recognise them by as they always wore a mask — and dashed towards the area where a supposedly “extremely evil villain” was hiding out, once the superhero and their sidekick had defeated the villain as they had everyday for as long as they can remember. They finished off the day quietly doing random activities to occupy them and cure their minds from endless boredom, although at the end of the day they still had each other.
