  1. Haven't been on in ages. Hi people. 

  2. ^^ This. When someone tells me they broke up because of cheating . Also- aside from really close friends- I don't understand discussing the romantic/sexual aspects of a romantic/sexual relationship. Made even more awkward when someone who's not even close to me (who seems to forget I'm AroAce), is talking about it. I feel like the only way I'll ever understand romantic/sexual relationships is through writing fictional characters- it's the only time I won't freak out over something romantic/sexual.
  3. Well, the most stressful week of the year is overwith for me. Finally in SC away from the rat race of NJ..

      I don't know.

      :/ 3 more days 'till Friday.. Got any icecream?

  5. In a week, I will no longer live in NJ...(you oppressively high taxes, high cost of living, very stressed out culture, type of state...especially the part by NYC..South Jersey is nicer anyway)

      Congrats on moving on! I wonder why so many aces are still staying in NJ.

      South Jersey is so much nicer. I went to college down there a long while back. :) (still has the high taxes tho :/ ) The suburban counties close to NYC are always congested etc and the infrastructure is soo old and can't handle modern traffic well. I LOVED the Pine Barrens :)

  6. I stopped giving a damn what others think, and actually came out as ace on my FB author page.

      Well done! :icecream::cake: The utility of stopping giving a damn is one of life's best-kept secrets!

  7. I'm through with real life interactions, people are too unfriendly and give the stupidest remarks, over food no less. Plot Twist- this isn't one of my parents (whom, I'm much more used to.)

      Are you alright? If you ever want to talk about what happened (or stuff that happens in the future), feel free to message me.

      But you're a cowgirl - and cowgirls have superpowers! :icecream:

  8. I can barely make a post on AVEN without it giving me Internal Server Errors.. :(

  9. The only reason I dislike AVEN is the loading and server problems.

      There are some things I dislike about it... but that's pretty much the main thing haha. Let's hope we don't ever have that problem!

  10. I didn't like how sexist some of the possible answers were. It's somewhat accurate, My next cosplay project is Hiccup's Race to the Edge outfit. To be honest- I'd say my conflicts have more to do with the sexism in culture and society, rather than anything to do with how comfortable I am in my own body.
  11. And AVEN went down for me....

      Oh nooo! It's been pretty shakey lately! Our awesome-ness is just too much for the servers to handle.

      And it's still shakey today LOL. 

  12. Same. I never experienced it when I hit my teens, and the thought of dating someone still scares me. I knew I didn't like romance, but I didn't know there was a word for it until I got onto tumblr and followed some blogs that re-blogged posts about asexuality and aromanticism.
  13. I agree on this for sure. It was done in a believable way for me, and when I hit the episode Doomsday, I'm crying by the end of it. So, here's my 2 cents. I've experienced romantic/sexual attraction before, to varying degrees. At the time I thought they were crushes, and one was a small amount of romantic attraction, but that faded within weeks. It was 5 years ago so I barely count it toward me being grey-aro. Sexual attraction for me, I feel like it's been even longer. Not that I want to experience it anyway. Fictional romance when done right can be awesome. I've also read and enjoyed smut, fluff, and darker stories. (My fictional writing gets DARK.) Same. If it's a well done romantic comedy. Ok- my example might be really tame, but I'm a David Tennant fan, so I turned on The Decoy Bride on Netflix for the first time and loved it. It's relatively light on the romance, or is it because it's a Scottish film, that it doesn't seem as "in-your-face" as American romantic comedies. Edit- The first time I watched it was in Sept- and for the most part- it's one of my go-to movies for when I have a bad day, unless I'm feeling really romance repulsed, which is rare for me, but it happens.

  15. I think I have a bug, and I've had it for a while (ever since I joined). I can't post status updates of my own from anywhere on my profile, or the main forum homepage. http://imgur.com/a/v3GYW http://imgur.com/4QTVyf9 Basically the whole "What's on your mind?" section for the status updates never appeared to me.
  16. This is going to be super short (more details here) tw- for brief mentions of sex..just in case. So- it never got into anything official, but the person creeped me out days before by the mere mention of sex in relation to my creative writing. It'd also creep me out to be considered anyone's girlfriend. My thoughts on that are "Ew- why would I want THAT from you??? EW EW EW.." (aka- me figuring out I'm definitely on the ace spectrum).
  17. First off- my Mom's aromantic and asexual- so the pressure from my immediate family to fit into cultural norms wasn't there. With my immediate family, coming out as asexual, my mom understands and my dad doesn't care either way. In general from my closest friends and family- They know to some extent- but even before I knew the term aromantic, I thought the whole dating thing something other people do. Some of my closest friends know. Most of the time the subject doesn't even pop up.
  18. My favorite , and I love green tea ice cream!
  19. For me, cuddling (unless it's platonic between my mom and I), or any mention of physical contact with the other sex freaks me out in Real Life. (I might not be heterosexual- I don't know yet to be honest.) . I see kissing as either/or (sexual or romantic). I don't know, because the sexual fantasies I've had are mostly heterosexual- but lately with someone being romantically attracted to me- I'm beginning to question it.
  20. The whole idea of dating is repulsive to me. I like romance in fiction, but nowhere else. I never ever want to go on a date and be the center of some jerk's life.
