So I'm fairly new to identifying as alloaromantic and I wanted to ask if it was normal to have squishes on both sexes? Even though I'm only sexually attracted to men, almost all of my squishes have been on women. 

I'm not romance repulsed and in fact I also appreciate a well written romantic arc as an interesting exploration of that facet of human nature. When I was younger I did wish I could be in a romantic relationship because it didn't seem possible to have such a strong emotional connection with another person without it. I no longer believe this although it is obviously more difficult to find.
