-Dorare (pronounced “doe-rare”)

A type of orientation for those who say “I love you”, but they don’t mean romantically or explicitly platonically. It is a means of expressing intense feelings for someone (such as passion), but it isn’t inherently sexual, romantic, platonic, etc. -Dorare (suffix) is based off of the latin word “adorare” which means “to worship”. The suffix can be tagged onto any prefix!

-Dorare can be used as a more specific form of attraction towards an individual or group of people (though it is best suited towards individuals). The “flag base” is dusty orange followed by white followed by a darker teal color (as seen below). The “swap out” color is the top color of the flag. 

Context wise this could be used as a way of someone saying “I love you. I just fucking adore/love you.” But they don’t mean to give it romantic or anything similar with context.
