I believe that you do what it makes you happy and comfortable. The lgbtq+ community has fought (still fighting) for their rights to love and be loved, but most importantly: they have fought for their right to be themselves. Aromantic and asexual people are not excluded, no matter what exclusionists tell you.
You are aro, you need to be yourself. Of course romantic love is going to be in the picture (because in my perspective media idolized romantic relationships, but of course romantic relationships are not bad, just not for everyone) but you do not need to feel the pressure of doing something you do not want or are not comfortable to.
May sound cliché but: be yourself. If someone dislikes it, screw them. You have to be the example of someone who understands and feels love in a different way, and is happy and proud of it. Be proud of who you are and what you feel.
I'm sorry if I made mistakes, English is not my native language. Hope this helps and have a wonderful day
