For me, romantic attraction means I have all of the warm swoony fuzzy feelings for another person, where I want to spend time with them, do things for them, have a deep, emotionally close relationship with them...the only things I don't want to do with them are sexual things like get naked and touch each other's genitalia and stuff.
