I've been doing some research into colors and their meanings. Originally, the main two colors I used were Prussian Blue and Fluorescent Pink, mainly due to the blue being a calm color while the pink appeared violent. But recently, that hasn't been giving me much inspiration lately.

So I thought that I'd change it.

I've been researching Aromanticism, as I am currently in a platonic relationship with someone who identifies underneath the aromantic spectrum.

But let's just talk about the colors, since I found them to be interesting and somewhat relatable.

Dark Green represents romance negative/repulsed,

Light Green for romance indifferent/neutral,

White for aromantics of all genders, sexualities, and relationships,

Grey for romance positive/favorable,

And finally black for absence of romantic attraction.

Another cool thing with the color choices is that since green is the opposite of red, which is romance repulsed vs. romantic.


I found that by reading up on the aromantic flag, I found myself realizing that my past toxic relationship was forced romance that I didn't like (minus the sexual part, I didn't like that either). For example, kissing felt weird for the first time since I felt nothing, and the same goes with PDA (never kiss in public, unless it's a short peck).


So, I've been thinking about utilizing these colors plus reds and pinks to emphasize unwanted romantic actions by drawing attention to it.
