  1. I think my parents will be really disappointed with me...they're already upset that I'm trans and I don't want to tell them that I'm an allosexual aro.

    I would expect the you-can't-have-sex-outside-of-marriage thing and I really don't want to be lectured on that :/

     

    It would be really great if they took things well though :) I'm hoping that when I'm older can finally be taken seriously as an adult, they will be more understanding.

    • "is it something I did wrong when you were younger?" (@my mum) - seriously, mum, we had this exact same conversation when I came out to you as a lesbian five years ago, its still.not.a.childhood.trauma. please chill

    My mom thinks the same way...please, I am the way I am because I'm the way I am. It's not the result of something traumatic that happened.

    • You're too young to know that! Give yourself some time (or) Just wait until college/some other arbitrary threshold. You'll definitely start to feel something by (insert arbitrary point when you are considered "mature")!

    It annoys me to no end when people assume that you can't think for yourself because you're not older than 20.

  5. My friend keeps getting confused and thinks that I'm asexual xD 

    It's an every day struggle man.

    Most other people just thinking I don't want a relationship right now but I'll change my mind when I find the perfect person to blow me away. I'm just pretending or something to seem cool. (?)

  6. Mine fluctuates. Usually in songs I can stand it because I turn it to more platonic and most songs are about something romantic anyway so I can't listen to much music without romance. In books it's a little bad. I usually skim over the romance stuff.

    In movies and TV it's really hard. I always find myself repulsed when things get too deep into it. If it's just a quick kiss or something like that I'm okay, but when it's only the couple on the screen and it gets romantic af I start to tune out because I just can't. I can't.

     

    irl I can stand some things? Like, kissing is fine. I interpret kissing as more of a sexual thing than a romantic thing and it doesn't bother me as much. When couples start holding hands and getting all...eh, and doing that thing where one of their face is on the other's neck (What's that thing about? It's so weird...), I start getting really uncomfortable and I leaveee

     

    Sometimes my friends talk to me about their romantic things and I just...ew stahp. I just don't like it.

     

    And my parents sometimes do romantic things and that bothers me as well. I usually leave the room. Once and a while I say "ew" or "please stop" and they just laugh and say that someday I'll feel differently. I'm 15, when will that day come? Everyone I know is doing the relationship thing already.

     

    And last, when it's directed at me. I was in a relationship a little while ago (that's how I figured out I was aromantic) and I would have anxiety attacks before dates and I'd tense up whenever my ex was around me. I barely said a word and I couldn't figure out what was wrong with me, but it was just me not liking romance.

    I was in a romantic relationship for about a month in my sophomore year of college.  I had a small squish on this guy (although I didn't know what it was called at the time), and he developed a crush on me.  We he asked me to be his girlfriend, I said yes- partly because I though that my squish was a crush (or that if it wasn't a crush stronger "crush" feelings would develop in the relationship), partly because it was expected of me to have been in a relationship by that point.

     

    Once the relationship started I discovered that I can be incredibly romance-repulsed; even the things that were fun to do with this guy as friends felt gross and uncomfortable once it was done in the context of a relationship.  Sometimes it would get so bad that I'd have panic attacks before dates with this guy, even if the date was something completely un-romantic in nature.  I was able to tolerate it (barely) for about a month, until finally I broke up with him.  I felt awful about it because I didn't understand why I couldn't love him the way he loved me, and thought I was just being a bitch for breaking up so soon.

     

    At the end of the day though, I guess I'm glad it happened, because it was the confusion from that relationship that made me start to question things, and made me curious enough to start researching asexuality and romantic orientations when I saw a mention of them.

    This sounds like me! I had a girlfriend, and I really liked her (turned out to be platonic), but I would always tense up and once we actually went on a date. I remember that once before a dance I had a pretty long anxiety attack. (That was pretty much our only date.)

     

    That was romance repulsion? xD

  8. Relationships...*dies*

     

    So I was in a relationship with a girl for a couple months...I was curious to see how it played out. She asked me out and I basically said, "why not?"

    (I didn't know I was aro back then)

    The entire time I was wanting to be out of the relationship and I sort of tried to force myself to try to like her romantically...when it ended I was relieved. I really don't know what I was thinking xD I'm basically an idiot.

    I'm reading Romeo and Juliet in class right now so we're constantly talking about romantic love and the way we experience it and honestly it's like hell for me

    SAME. I don't understand it. All I understand is why people wanna kill each other, like, if I was Tybalt I would want to kill Romeo too. He's daft.

    Today I actually had a lecture about the book Twilight (yes, Twilight, it was a torture) and magical love (or something) that overcomes every obstacle in the way. I was already there like "yeah, I've seen this stuff enough in the books, movies and tv-shows so I kinda get what you mean but srsly don't understand" when the teacher laughed happily and said something like this: "But we all know how love can make us crazy at first." 

    Really?

    We do? 

    Nice supposition there, lady. 

    When I read those books I was obsessed with the vampire world in it and when the Jacob vs Edward thing came about I was so confused. Like, why are we fighting over who is better? They're both abusive af and can't take no for an answer and Bella...she's just ugh.
