Today is the first time I said I was aromantic out loud. It was to my mom, it felt harder to say than coming out as bisexual because that is at least easier to explain. I have been in one or two romantic relationships and spent the entire time dodging my partners calls or trying to get out of seeing them. As soon as we broke up I felt so relieved like a weight was gone from my shoulders. My mom told me that I need to wait and I shouldn't define myself like this but I don't think this is a phase. Maybe it is a phase? I love rom coms to like a scary degree but in real life it makes me feel sick. I can't imagine myself in a committed relationship at all and that scares me, I don't want to be alone. I really would like too talk to someone, I have never met or talked about this to someone who understands. I guess i'm just looking for a friend.
