No kidding. There was a girl in my construction class, Gr. 8 (I hated her before this, but we were the only two French Immersion kids in that class, so we kind of ended up as friends during that hour,) and she had this crush on a kid who'd moved into the English Program, Jackson. Massive crush, like, couldn't form two words around him. I thought it was hilarious at first because I thought she had convinced herself of that fact, that it was in her head. Turns out no, she was utterly in love with him. I ended up steering him towards her whenever possible, like if he asked me for help with looking for something in the work booklets, I'd point him towards her. She eventually figured out how to talk. I was proud. Celebrity crushes. Ew. Gross. Like, sure, they might play a superhero or something, but they're also forty years older than you and married. Never got the Justin Biever craze myself - or any craze, for that matter. I knew they were talking about how they wanted to date those people, but it was always repulsive to me. I usually ended up going and sitting at the guys table for lunch or alone, so I didn't have to hear about it. The only way I understand romance is through friendships. I have this friend, who I've had since, like, Gr. 2. And we have this deal; we'll go to the Gr. 12 dance, when it comes, in a tux each. We're both girls, by the way. But we both hate dresses - and were forced into a skirt for me, and a dress for her for Gr. 6 Grad - and I'm aro-ace, and she doesn't seem to give a crap about anyone of the opposite gender, or anyone of our gender, in a romo way. So we have a pact that even if we get dates for it or something, we'll still both wear tuxes. This friend though, I would die for. I would do anything for her, and I know she'd do anything for me. And I guess that love, romantic love must be like this, just... more touching.

I'm writing a book. 50/50 if it ever gets anywhere, but I need something to do right now, and this works. And, heads up, 90% of the characters are queer. I'm not even kidding. MC 1 - Aro-Ace Girl MC 2 - Gay-Ace Boy Supporting Characters: Gay Couple (Parents of MC 2) Trans Woman (Detective) Bi Teacher (Dating Detective) Lesbian Student (Former BFF of MC 1) Non-Binary Demon (Who gets killed off in the first chapter) And that's just who I can remember because I'm too lazy to check. Those are the important ones. And why is it so hard to write aro/ace characters? I mean, it isn't, but I keep having to go back and look over it because 'Is it forced? Am I spending too much time on the aro/ace thing?' and 'What if it's confusing?' and gah, why is life SO DIFFICULT!!!

Yeah, other people identify as aro-flux. But they probably don't feel exactly the same way you do. I identify as aro-ace-flux, which means I'm both aroflux and aceflux.

Don't think we have a nickname, but there's a discord where we read My Immortal and talk about dishwashers. https://discord.gg/H2KcsWR

Mid teens.

We should all dress up as Hunters of Artemis for Halloween regardless of gender identity just for the sake of it.

I headcanon Gobber from How to Train Your Dragon as aroace, even though everyone thinks he's gay or bi from that one line in the second film.

French: blanc. I dunno why, I just liked how it sounded when I was younger. English: Dociousaliexpisticfragicalirupus (Can't even say it though, it's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious backwards though! Not spelt that way, but you get the idea.)

Only know a little about it, but it's all good stuff! Although I had to do a project in school about lapis lazuli and she kept coming up, making it hard to do, cuz all the images were of her, lol. She-Ra, the new one, seems to do a good job of what you're talking about too. The only established couple in S1 are lesbians, which isn't even spoken about, it's just part of the show, which is great, there are hints of another lesbian relationship, and all of the relationships except maybe Catra and the dark shadow lady are really positive.

Canadian, so I'm not going to bother writing what I got down, although I did get 100% liberal, whatever that may mean.

Stop pretending to have a crush on people. You don't need that in your life. Go read some books, and start to write your own stories. Don't be mean to Oliver, he's in the same community you are, even if neither of you know that yet.

Writer/editor. I love stories.

Hey, so I was wondering if anyone knew a site where you can order rings online? Just simple ones, like what we sometimes wear to demonstrate that we're aro? That would be awesome, thanks!

I am wondering if, being scared of being attracted romantically/physically to others, regardless of age/race/gender/orientation etc is a sign of being aro?

I currently identify as aro-ace-flux. I say currently because that might change as time goes on. I might, in the future, identify as just aro, or just ace, or aroflux or whatever. But right now, I identify as aro-ace-flux, which, quick explanation, means I experience little to no desire for romantic or physical relationships, but how much fluxuates dependent on outside factors. I recently came out to my family, although it wasn't really coming out how like you'd think it was. I have two moms. And I was actually explaining the different kinds of queer people in the LGBTQ2+ community to one of them because they're both kind of out of touch with this kind of thing. Like, very out of touch. Anyways. So, she asked me what I identify as, so I ended up saying aro-ace. I've been looking into aro-ace for a little while, and spoke to a friend of mine who's trans about the community. I've never felt romantic attraction for anyone. In second grade, because I believed I was supposed to, I acted like I had a crush on a boy in my class, when really, I just was interested in being friends (we never dated nor are we friends, more like just classmates). I didn't act flirty or anything like that afterwards (although all I really did with that kid was ask him about the rules of soccer because I really wanted to know how to play soccer). So when I told my parents that I currently identified as that, they were cool with it. (Not that they have room to judge, they're lesbians. ? ) As someone who identifies as aro-ace-flux, would I be generally accepted on this forum? Because I do identify as aro, I just also identify as ace. Just wanted to say hi, I guess. Rather bored today, I'll say that, my sisters resorted to watching Moana, someone same me plz!
