Adornic is a type of alterous attraction based off of adoration for another individual. This type of attraction can be described as adoration for the other. It should feel warm and comfortable. Adornic attraction thrives off of happiness, and individuals in an adornic relationship should make each other happy, laugh, and overall give them a warm feeling that is unlike that of romantic attraction.
