That would be an interesting idea. To be honest I don't really know what I could offer within the functionality that I have.

it is based on an old sea shanty called 'Drunken Sailor'. So yes, kind of a brit meme thing, or at least, something a lot of brits would recognise. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drunken_Sailor the song giving various answers to the question 'what shall we do with a drunken sailor?'

Just found out some in orthodox Christianity celebrate Christmas on jan 7th. So happy Christmas again I guess. I'm gonna keep demanding schisms until every day is Christmas now. 🎄

That sounds correct. I know in the UK most people probably wouldn't bring a spouse to a work event either.

I think its worth setting out that your options are not 'aro' or 'another bad guy'. If you believe that framing you will probably find yourself siding with aro regardless of whether or not it is an idea that fits you. Romance is one possible part of a relationship and even people who feel a desire for romance can put that that for other things. You might be aro but more importantly, the things you have written, aro or not, do not make you a bad person. If the people involved in that relationship you talk about consent to the way that relationship is, understanding what they are involved in, then I don't see what about it would make you a bad person.

It has some interesting stuff and well written work about aromantism (as well as asexuality and agender things if that is of interest to you). 2. I found this piece of writing in particular very interesting. It talks quite a lot about how therapy for autism interacts with being aromantic.

Something to bring me back to my childhood. So many evenings watching this on telly with my family.

Happy

Hi! Nice to meet you too

Its another article by Bella DePaulo https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/living-single/202212/the-thrill-of-going-to-holiday-parties-alone I think this one is quite good, it talks about something I have been wondering about for a while, going to parties alone especially when most other people are partnered up.

I went to the Chinese restaurant and this duck came up to me with a red rose and says ”Your eyes sparkle like diamonds”. I said, ”Waiter, I asked for a-ROMATIC duck”.

To be honest you seem to be in a good place. The way I tend to think about it is that it is more useful to work out how you want to live your life, having some direction to aim towards, than sorting out the labels. If it helps you out sure, think it over and see what fits you but actually if you have a good idea of what sort of relationships you would be comfortable with and what you wouldnt that is really useful.
