sorry this is my first time here - i made this account today.
i was wondering if i am aromantic. i’ve been questioning it for a while but i’m worried i think this just because i recently realised i’m asexual and therefore think i ‘should’ be aromantic as well.
these are some of the things that have been confusing me:
1. i’ve never had a crush before (i’m not even sure what that feels like) but a big part of me does want a relationship with a guy.
2. i’m very affectionate with all my girl friends (hugs/cuddles, kisses on cheek, etc.).
3. i’ve never felt that uncomfortable with romance in books or movies.
could i actually be aro without adhering to most of the aromantic stereotypes?
