Cheerio Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 YMBAI if you forget/can't fathom the fact that there are actually people who want nothing more in life than to fall in love and marry. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonmerci Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 YMBAI if you are confused by the "I love you" thing and why it is an important "step " in a romantic relationship. Because why would you date someone you don't love (romantically)? (I thought that being crushes and being in love was the same) 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idk I'm Confused Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 YMBAI the only person ever giving you butterflies in your stomach is a dentist, because you're scared. YMBAI you thing "wow this song rocks" and then you look up the lyrics and are bitterly disappointed because the whole meaning is "i love you. please marry me" and you're just like eww why did they ruin a perfectly good song? 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanda Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 YMBAI when in a romantic relationship you wondered why your partner looked like they were more invested or liked you more than you like them and you couldn't understand why 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omg there are so many times where I’m watching a show or something and suddenly two characters go from disliking each other to dating and I’m just like ?how?? Usually when I get invested in romantic plots it’s more about me just wanting to see them get along and be happy, all the intricacies fly over my head. Like when kid flash and Artemis in young justice kissed at the end of s1 or when m’ghan and connar started dating. there was one movie that I really liked a lot because I related to the girl a lot. It was a rom com and it was sort of supposed to be a play on the pixie dream girl trope. 500 days of summer, it’s about a boy who falls in love with a girl (I think it was also his first crush or something) anyways, he asks her out and she says yes but only 500 days. She told him from the beginning to not get too romantically invested because she won’t, but he hoped she would love him back soon enough. They did do a lot of romantic stuff but I don’t want to spoil the whole movie, but it’s really good. It’s not told in chronological order, and I like how the girl is definitely greyromantic. Before I learned of aromanticism I loved this movie because I related to her so much but I didn’t know why, but it helped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Rimmer Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 YMBAI when you don't fear rejection, you fear reciprocation and a positive response. I don't want to seduce you, I just want to be your friend!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleFrog Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 If the only reason you can think of to get married is because it would be much easier financially to have two incomes instead of trying to get by on one, lol. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved it because I like history and I thought, that the ship was cool. To me it was "this is historical drama where two people meet on a ship, but then it sinks and one of them dies, which is why it is important to always have enough lifeboats". I did not realise until many years later that people view it as a romantic story (Also, little ace Metelyk did NOT understand "draw me like one of your french women" scene hahaha) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ligtling Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 YMBAI you tell your mom that the emotions/feeling experienced during romance are purely a chemical reaction inside of your body and then she looks at you sadly. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Confused Eighth-Grader Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I don't know if this is an aromantic thing or not, since I'm not sure if I'm aromantic, but my best friend ships me with one of our other friends, and when she told me, I basically went "I don't like him like that, just like every other human in existence, but okay" and she said "Yeah, I know" and I said "Okay" and she said "Okay" and we just went on with our lives.

cinnamon_bun Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 YMBAI you always got over breakups the minute it happened YMBAI you ever felt anxiety when someone tried to be romantic with you (and not in the 'i can't believe this is happening what if i screw up' butterfly feeling anxiety) YMBAI you felt bad for being in a romantic relationship with someone, feeling that you weren't being honest to yourself or them 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nonmerci Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Well Eliza had a point : he needed a break. Hamilton says it himself in the song after, and he did take a break... but not with her. But yeah, he had to work on his plan so... draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kate Bishop best arrowace Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 You say that you like a person before you understand that thinking someone is really cool isn't the same thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffectualdemon Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 YMBAI if watching a romcom or reading a romance book feels exactly like having to do a word problem on a math test when you're terrible at math Or if the only reason you're interested in a romantic story is because it's 1. Queer and 2. Isn't 100% a romance story (ie is also mystery or something) so you don't get too bored When you're okay with doing romantic gestures to make someone else happy but you don't get why they need or want it and would really rather not When you get excited about marriage because it means someone is "contractually obligated to be my best friend" On that note YMBAI the only reason you saw for getting into a romantic relationship is because someone once told you that your romantic partner is supposed to be your best friend and you are obsessed with the idea of best friends If all your teenage yearning and daydreams were about having a best friend and not at all about having a romantic relationship 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that music. That music! Be still my Balto loving heart at 6:15 of 'The Death of the Titanic' track. Then you don't cry when *spoiler* that character dies. But you might just sob a little at the finale because really, if she didn't want the necklace I sure would love to have it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
