finding relationships annoying in stories
ScarfOfSexualPreference replied to RoboticHumanoid's topic in Aromantic Discussion
Yeah, me too. I just like to see that kind of representation because it is almost always done well, and there's actual effort put into it. Straight relationships are so stale they just feel factory made. -
Touch Aversion is a Thing, right?
ScarfOfSexualPreference replied to Drew's question in Anonymous Q&A
I honestly WISH I liked physical contact, because I like the feeling of being confined in a space, like a sleeping bag or in a crawl space or something. It makes me feel safe. But as soon as someone brushes up against me, something in my body is like: this isn't comfy. It kinda sucks tbh. Plus, I'm a person who avoids confrontation at all costs, so I just kinda, let it happen. Anyway... -
Yeah, I think we could do with a LOT for visibility.

It's so nice to say that I have a word for a platonic crush on fictional characters. Like I wanna let people know I really want to be around them without saying I have a crush on this person. Like Dipper from Gravity Falls is so cool, I just want to be friends and go on adventures with him, but I don't like like him. Anyway, I love that we've created a name for that!!

Another Aromantic Test
ScarfOfSexualPreference replied to Naegleria fowleri's topic in Aromantic Discussion
For 50% you are: You are probably asexual and aromantic. That means you neither fall in love nor enjoy sex. You might find someone attractive, enjoy masturbation, like to cuddle and have body contact, even want kids, but you're not up for the traditional relationship, and that's all right. Maybe you'll have a great friendship and even live with someone. Good luck!28% of 225407 quiz participants had this profile! Profile AYou could also get this result:For 25% you are: You are mostly aromantic! You might form close and strong friendships, enjoy sex, feel arousal, find people attractive and want kids, but you don't fall in love. You could also be gray-aromantic (check different blogs for more information) or demiromantic. (You only fall in love when you already have a very strong friendship with someone.) This might change someday, or maybe it won't change. Don't worry, you're completely normal, and how you are has a lot of advantages.You will probably never feel the pain of a broken heart or go through weird dating phases. You are independent and won't be bothered by your emotions. Maybe you are actually romantic, and that is all right, too. Good luck! Profile B -

Hey, welcome! Questioning gender is a fun rollercoaster which I'm still on, so I wish you luck and good fortune on your journey!!

Okay, I love that story!! That's so sweet! I have a sort of similar feeling around the L word, but I also was able to say a casual "love you!" to my friends before I leave, most of which I'm out to, and it just feels so freeing! I was reading this book about shyness and the author was talking about how she learned that people don't like to wave, but they love to wave back (they don't like to initiate things they might like). So recently I've been trying to initiate some more things that I haven't been sure about, but everyone who I've talked with or said "I love you" to has always said "love you too" right back! Anyway, it's just really nice to be able to say how much you appreciate your friends without it being weird, huh?

This is more in regards for ace, but I think it transfers. There's this analogy I got from a youtube video about aceness, and they said it's like having all the food you could possibly want spread out in a table in front of you, but you're not hungry. And everyone else is eating around you and offering you food but you don't want it. Maybe that can help describe what you were feeling about the romance song.

As long as they don't want to date me, I'm cool w kissing. Ugh, dating...

How to deepen friendships?
ScarfOfSexualPreference replied to Holmbo's topic in Aromantic Relationships
If you can be in the same room doing separate things without feeling weird about it, that's a pretty deep friendship. I also think that having full trust in them is a big identifier too. I'm still working on my friendships right now, but we're getting there -
My laptop loves trying to correct me when I type aro or aromantic. I think my personal favorites are "arm" and "aromatic." I like to think I smell nice.

Being naked in front of others?
ScarfOfSexualPreference replied to Philbo Wiseroot's topic in Off Topic
While I might do it out of necessity, I'd never ever choose to be naked in front of anyone. I don't even like being naked in the mirror alone in may room. -

Questions for non-SAM aromantics
ScarfOfSexualPreference replied to Violet Stars's topic in Aromantic Discussion
I choose to go with the label grey-sexual, since it tends to make the most sense to others and me, but that’s just because I’m not sure where I fall on the spectrum. I’m only 16, so I don’t want to pick a sexual label, although I’m definitely aro If I had to describe my feelings, I’d say that I like the idea of sex, but would never ever actually participate. I love hugs and cuddles and kisses (sometimes), but when it comes to sex... not so much. At the moment, the split attraction model just doesn’t fit me, so I’m just grey for now! -
Books that you think aros would enjoy
ScarfOfSexualPreference replied to Holmbo's topic in Off Topic
If anyone happens to see this, there's a trilogy called the Chaos Walking trilogy and it makes me cry every time. Incredible pacing, unique writing style, and just an overall good story! (Also there's almost no romantic subplot in the first book)
