#Anonymous #aro culture is #aro #aromantic #actually aro #actually aromantic #ask #mod alexander #imho i find that those individuals tend to be thoroughly unpleasant to be around in the first place #typically due to acting entitled to a romo relationship #so my general vibe is that it comes with the territory of upper middle class bs #but honestly i also see it in ppl who are used to codependency and are struggling with the concept of not being in a codependent #relationship. they typically seem to feel that not being a relationship is a sign that absolutely no one will ever want them #and tbh i feel like that second group in particular is likely to come from abusive households #and struggles with the concept that ppl *can* be nice outside of obligations to you #so it's viewed to some degree that all ppl in relationships that don't include them = none of those ppl will care about them #nonetheless i am not a good person to help those individuals beyond pointing them at the concept of therapy #typically in the context of something else because i find codependent ppl typically believe (and i'd assume at some point were 'taught') #that anyone trying to inform you that codependency is harmful... is trying to force you to never interact with them #but that's my observations not necessarily science or anything
