    jake english from homestuck seems p aromantic to me but like.... romance-positive, so he's cool with being in romantic relationships. john egbert? also aromantic. maybe romance-neutral??? and for some reason ive always associated nepeta with aromanticism even though she's got a big thing for karkat. perhaps it's just the presence of the color green. idk

     

    definitely omg but idk if i would call jake romance-positive? yeah he was in a relationship with dirk for such a long time but it was really bad for him (for a number of reasons). id categorize him more as romance-neutral tbh

     

    john is totally aro. definitely. maybe grayro because i can see that too but he's on the aro spectrum

     

    & ive never really considered nepeta before but it would actually make a lot of sense if she was? her longest-lasting relationship (though romantic by troll standards, as moirallegiance is classified as romance) is largely associated with a qpr and youre definitely onto something there!

  2. i always thought i was straight, and tbh i internalized a lot of homophobia & arophobia that existed around me & that came out in me doing this obnoxious double-reacharound thing where i pretended to be superior for not being interested in romance (singles club & all that) but sort of believed that One Day I Would Get A Crush and tbh it was probably v immature and annoying but it was also sort of this way for me to convince myself that i was Just Like Everyone Else™

     

    anyway im pretty sure doing all that really damaged my emotional development, 0/10, do not recommend

    Antimony from Gunnerkrigg Court is so heavily implied to be aro (no romantic interest so far and awkwardness around potential partners, her fear of losing her friends to their romantic partners) that I'm honestly not sure if it's headcanon or straight up canon any more. I might cry if the comic eventually pairs her up unless she goes through some typical aro problems with it.

     

    omg you like gunnerkrigg court???? annie is Definitely aro-ace, this last chapter all but confirmed it. i especially loved the conversation she and kat had when kat started going out with paz (the whole thing with being afraid of losing her best friend to a romantic relationship)!!! honestly im a lil bit annoyed at the people whove been talking about how the latest chapter didnt have a purpose and was mostly filler but i love it & its basically impossible to say shes not aro anymore

    I'm a little grossed out by kissing/making out, even on TV, and definitely in real life. I think I realized just how much I was when I saw a couple in my school's hallway up against a locker and being super lovey-dovey. They weren't even kissing, but I still thought it was gross.

     

    I don't care what people want to do as long as they do it in the privacy of their homes! I think it's fine to hold hands and stuff in public, but when they start making out in the middle of the street, I want to barf.

    tbh????? im so glad im graduating high school so i dont have to shove past that one couple that took it upon themselves to make out passionately right in front of my locker every single day >.<

  5. im ok with like... physical stuff [edit: physical stuff involving me and in a private setting] but anything verbally expressed about romance makes me feel physically sick. the exception is music - probably because with music its not focused solely on the words/content of the song, more about the beat & tune. i cant read romance novels or watch romantic movies.

     

    also like irl pda squicks me out so bad i hate hate hate watching people kiss in public or get clingy and feelsy it just makes me so uncomfortable and i cant be around people who do that
