I don't really feel that way, but then again I'm 28 and only figured out I'm aroace last year. I have been considering this stuff for a long, long time. So it's a bit different for me. Also, I'm good at what some people would call "doublethink". Like when I have squishes/crushes, I am good at reconciling it with my identity. I know many aros get squishes, but for me it's still something I have to reconcile because it's not the stereotype.
