Yeah and also confused like Im literally the most unfuckable unromancable being you ever seen, why me? The taste has got to be as low as a deep pit

Any other aromantics have the issue where like someone you just met confesses to you that they like you, or implies they wanna date, and immediatly you feel....gross? Like you feel like you've been doused in slime or something and you get that icky feeling in your chest and gut? And have the urge to take a loooooong shower?

remembering when i decided to fight the heteronormativity in my family so everytime they said anything with "your future boyfriend" to me i responded with "or girlfriend" and they did completely accept that and now use "future partner" but i kind of forgot i'm aromantic and likely won't ever have a partner

Committing acts of aromanticism

[cherrytea556]

Here we have a man named Anthony Bergmann. Anthony is a garbage man*, he's also a former independent professional wrestler, but that was ended by a knee injury. In recovery from the initial accident Anthony met a trans woman named Rebecca and through a decade of friendship with Rebecca he ended up realising that he's trans himself. Sexuality statement time Anthony is a sex-repulsed aromantic asexual. *I use the term garbage man because Anthony is Australian, if he was British I'd call him a bin man instead.

Shout out to the time 17 year old me sobbed on a park swing while loudly blasting music in my ears because my friend told me they had a crush on me, and I was fucking devistated because I felt like I had lost a friend, and I didn't want a romantic partner, I wanted a FRIEND.

I assume so? idk man I'm not really the one to ask. alloros in chat what's the consensus

[cherrytea556]

I told my therapist that I identify with the asexual spectrum and her response was literally slay bitch.

I am happy and confused

Also, it was the first time that she asked about my romantic/sexual interests. I was ready cause I prepared myself for this conversation four months ago.

Perhaps it's because I live in an aro-desert, but to be honest while I consider myself "queer," I don't really relate to a lot of the queer community.

I know quite a few aces, but I have yet to meet an aro person (at least, one that I can understand). It's sort of a shame too, because in my experience my aroness is probably my most influential label.

I don't think I'll experience "love" in the way normal people do. I don't get crushes (or if I do, in a rare blue moon, it's on a fictional character and it goes away pretty quickly. It's also never an enjoyable feeling for me, contrary to what I've heard). And it kind of stinks, because most of the queer individuals around me define their own identities pretty much by the people that they "love."

Of course, I'm never excluded from anything, and I'm grateful for that, but I just feel there's an invisible wall between me and others on account of being aromantic.

🤔though, in hindsight, romantic love isn't really that big of an influence in day-to-day conversations with most people. What we usually see more of is gender presentation, interests, and etc etc. But I will get whiplash when I'm reminded that people fall in love and are not actually joking about it a lot.
