Katniss from Hunger games books feels very aro ace to me. It's been a while since I read the books, but I remember when she and Peeta was in that cave in the first book, Peeta did a gesture she had seen her parents do (a little romantic touch or something), and not understanding how he knew how to do that since she felt his parents would not be likely to show each other affection like that. She also thought he did everything as an act as well, not understanding that he loved her. And her relationships with Peeta and Gale seemed more like maybe QPR or squishes for me. I would also be bold enough to suggest Barney from How I Met Your Mother in the aro specter.

I don't do well in heat and warm weather. I prefer fall and winter months. Lucky summer in Norway aren't known for being too warm, at least not where I live, but right now it's been between 20-25 C and I'm dying. Air conditioning is not really a big thing here. I live in a new apartment, and I only have a heater, like almost any household here. Like @Quinoa says; you can always find a way to warm up when it's cold, but there is no escape from heat. Plus sleeping is a bitch when it's hot.... Bring on the rainy days!!

No, forever is a bit too long to be alone One million dollars but you will turn into a statue for one hour everyday for the rest of your life. You will not get to choose the time and place. May happen when you sleep, may happen on a bus, in the shower etc..

Yes! For fiction. When I ship, I ship HARD. Not necessarily romantically tho, but usually. Sometimes bromances, sometimes sexually. But I have to find chemistry between the characters, or else it just seem wrong. RL romantic/sexual shipping, not so much.....

Sure, I work in health care, so it's almost required to have bad handwriting anyway You get 1 million dollars, but you have to cut off all your toes

Hello hippiecat! Have an icecream Natkat, I sent you an pm with my email

Hell, yes! Rainy days are the best! A million dollars, but you can never read a book again.

Ugh, no thanks. Too awkward.. A million dollars, but you would have to give up one kidney and one eye.

Hugs from my family, especially my mom and nieces/nephews are fine. But I don't really like them from others. I remember before christmas, I had a co-worker whom I'm not really close with, hug me while I was changing out of my scrubs after my shift had ended. She was fully clothed, and there was I, in a jumper, socks and underwear...no pants/trousers yet..and she hugged me...SOOO awkward . And I never liked people I'm not close with touching me. I always cringe a bit when certain co-workers pulls up the sleeves on my scrub to get a better look at one of my tattoos. Like, you can ask if I can show you, I don't have a problem showing off my tats, just don't start undressing me without asking! I'm not fond of kissing. Sometimes I kiss my nieces/nephews on their cheek/top of their head (they range from 5 years to 9 years), but that's about it. Except babies. I love babies. Babies get's all my kisses. And dogs off course. My Asia get's tons of kisses everyday

Awesome! I would love to meet other aros. As far as I know, I don't know anyone around here like me. So it would be nice to have the opportunity to meet others. I'm going on vacation in northern Jylland in early august for a couple days, and possibly copenhagen for a days visit later in august. I'm planning to maybe visit a clinic there while I have vacation from work. Can you link up the Facebook site in a PM or something? I live in the south-west, but I have work until 24 july, then 4 weeks vacation. Is it far south, or south-east?

29. Turning 30 in December...and having tiny panic attacks evertime someone reminds me...

I'm out to my parents, my brother and my oldest sister. I have one sister I have not told yet. I was nervous telling them, because as far as I know, none in my family/extended family are anything but straight, alloromantic cis. My mom asked a lot of questions, but she was cool with it. She was a bit worried tho, like if it was because of my upbringing, if she and dad had done something (I told her no). My dad was like "...okay, but do you like girls?". Which I told him no, and explained further. He said he accepted me, and he would have accepted me if I came out as something else as well. Then he focused on the importance of me finding new friends. I have few friends, thanks to my introversion and mild social anxiety. My oldest sister was very understanding, but she took the scientific approach. "Okay, so you lack the chemical that makes you fall in love?". She also thought I was asexual. Later she told her husband, which kind of bugged me. She could have waited until after I told everyone I wanted to tell personally, like our brother, other sister and my best friend. My brother, much like my dad, asked "are you a lesbian?" when I told him I wanted to tell him something. But once I told him, he just said okay, and nothing else. I think he maybe took it a bit too well, no questions or anything. But maybe he just needs to digest it? or maybe he knows someone who is also aro, so he knows more about it? I still have one sister to tell, and I have no idea if she will understand. She is newly single after a 10 year relationship and is currently in the "extreme flirting with guys on tinder fase". We'll see.

I'm a bit late, but yeah. Norwegian here!

Up till I was 27, I never in a million years wanted kids. Being an aunt to 3 nieces and 2 nephews was more than enough, and I always used to say "perfect birth-control" whenever they start to cry or scream at stuff. But right after turning 27 , I changed my mind. Now I have a deep urge to have a kid. So I made my "3-year plan". If I hadn't found love (didn't know yet I'm aromantic), by the time i'm 30, I would go to Denmark and get inseminated with donorsperm. So that's still the plan. Being aromantic kind of makes this choice easier, since my family now knows I will never find love in that way. Next year, if everything goes well, I'm getting my "baby juice" from a spermbank and getting it put in at a clinic. Where I live, it's a very controversial choice, and only my closest family and best friend know about my plans. And now I guess you guys... I know being a single mom will be tough and life will be hard at times, but I can't wait.
