WTFromantic (or Quoiromantic) is a term to describe a person who disidentifies with the concept of romantic orientation. WTFromantic (as in "what-the-fuck-romantic") first originated as an expression of personal frustration with the concept of romance. Later, "quoiromantic" (pronounced kwa-romantic) was proposed as an alternative, replacing the "WTF" with "quoi," the French word for "what." Reasons for identifying with WTF/quoiromanticism may include feeling neither romantic nor aromantic, finding the concept of romantic attraction to be confusing, finding the romantic/nonromantic distinction to be inaccessible in some way, or not seeing the lines between romance and friendship.
WTFromantics and quoiromantics may or may not identify as grey-romantic or with the aromantic spectrum.
