  1. Often, your new name is something you might have to "grow into" a bit. As you said, it'll feel good and comfortable and all, but probably won't start feeling like You for a short bit Personally, I took my Legal middle name and made it my first name, as it's a traditionally masculine name. I masculinized my Legal first name and made that my new middle name. That helped with the connection, as it was already pretty darned similar lol. I'll probably change my first name again when I move out and start Properly transitioning, but that's what I use for now- it took a good year or two of my favorite people using My Name before it felt like Me. I'd only consider changing it again because of bad family memories attached
  2. I had a bunch of animal ones from kids magazines when I was really young, and then little pictures I’d print out or find for fandoms I was in and birthday cards when in middle school. Now, I put just about anything I can find that’ll fit up on my walls- k-pop band posters, old drawings and art pieces from when my friends and I were kids, some of my old fandom stuff, I even found old maths conversions sheets and put those together nicely on my wall XD
  3. Type: amatopunk aro- sounds about right XD Rep: non-human... is it because I’m autistic (/j) Tarot: pentacles- yup!! Flag: aro flag :D
  4. My 7th grade civics teacher/7th and 8th grade MUN teacher- he’s actively the coolest guy I’ve ever met, he was the biggest ally ever and just all around the greatest. The first adult I’ve ever come out to also!!
  5. I really do love this internship I get to do,,,,

    However I am So not into this lecture and it's upsetting ahsdjsfdh

    The lecturer is Very Clearly Into his field and loves teaching this but I just Can't pay attention enough while Also following internship guidelines- if I were allowed to keep my camera off and like. Walk around and shit, then it'd all be fine but my freaking Zoom won't work smh

  6. Question for those of you who Kiss People (whether or not you like kissing lol)-

    As an aromantic/aro-spec person, is it? Nice??

    Idk I’ve just been kinda wanting to try and kiss someone recently, but if I think about it for too long I get super grossed out lmao. I’d like some perspectives from y’all, if you’ve kissed someone and how it made you feel as aro(spec) people. All of my friends are very much Into kissing people and also Not super aromantic sooo their perspectives aren’t super helpful.

      No one can answer that question, really. It's going to depend on the individual, just the same as "as an aromantic/aro-spec person, do you like cheese?" In my personal experience, sure, it can be nice or it can be terrible depending on who you're kissing. But the only person who can tell you if you would enjoy it is you.

      Sometimes it feels nice, it's a way of feeling closer, I guess.

      Ok well I Did Get Kissed yesterday-

      it was kinda weird in the moment (a Lot of other things were going on at the same time) but now I kinda wanna kiss someone again- so we’ll see what happens ig XD

  7. I definitely relate- I feel super bad about it later and the “power rush” (idk if that’s how I’d describe it for me but I don’t know what other words I’d use, so borrowing yours for now!!) is always coupled with Panic but it is a bit nice XD
  8. Oh yo I’m also at an IB school!! Fairly far away from y’all in terms of location though XD Fortunately most of my friends are questioning aspec so there’s not *too* too much dating, but I feel like when I hear about it from my other friends it all happens so fast? And so much all the time- one of my friends has dated like 6 people in 2 years which feels like a lot more than it might actually be? Idk, this stuff is confusing to me XD
  9. It’s a little picture one of my friends drew a few years back!! I’ve been using it for like 4 years online now and just started using different pictures with accounts I don’t want entirely linked to me lmao
  10. Oh I don't mind it when it's Optional or like well-done- High School Story has very optional romance for the player's character, even if side characters need to go on dates to advance quests. It's not very trans/non-binary friendly but it does allow lgbq+ relationships The Arcana is another romance game I used to really like, its a visual novel and I'm pretty sure there *has* to be romance but I didn't mind it much- I suggest you choose Julian's route if you're alloaro and attracted to men, I was easily able to construe it into a fwb/QPR type relationship. You're also able to take multiple routes at once, which is nice. Very trans/enby friendly imo, you can choose and change your name and pronouns throughout the story line. The side stories are also really fun!!
  11. Ooh Nussy Andrews and DKB (very different genres lmao)
  12. Ugh genuinely I’m so sorry, I really wish people would leave stuff like that in the past. Try to be like really stern with insisting not to ship y’all, and have your friend that you slept on help you. If they keep shipping you, eventually I’d suggest just ignoring it. I hope they stop really soon, I used to be like them and I didn’t realize just how harmful that is until I got into aro spaces. Hope they can learn sooner rather than later :/
  13. And even if you do end up experiencing romantic attraction, you don’t have to do anything about it. You don’t have to date or share it with anyone if you don’t want to, and I think it’d be fine to keep identifying as aromantic!!
  14. Yea, try and find some social media of theirs? I would suggest Instagram, it’s really easy to like reply to posts and stories and such and get somewhat closer that way?
  15. Oh yea, idk if there's a word for that but super relatable!!
  16. Agreeing with everything said here, in my experience homophobic people don’t usually know what aromantic means. I personally like seeing her as aromantic and allosexual but I have no strong feelings towards her sexual orientation lol
  17. Ah, is it trevorspace? There’s wayy too much of that on there for my liking. I definitely don’t think you’re in the wrong, he didn’t respect your boundaries. I really don’t think anyone will make fun of you for not participating, and if they do you should ignore it and like block them because where’s the logic in that?? I know some forms have the option for saying you’re aroace or looking for a platonic relationship, I’ve even filled out some and said I was just doing it for fun (I like answering questions about myself-) Stay safe, I 100% respect you for blocking him, I think that was a good choice
  18. Lmao I like how it’s only during ASAW that a guy who had a crush on me in middle school decides he still likes me and keeps hinting at wanting to date-

    Like brooo we haven’t talked in Years and I’m a boy!! Idk if you’re ready to be told that you’re like,, not straight smh

    (/lh but it is a bit Upsetting)

  19. I wanna also add breast forms and packers to this, but omgs this city sounds amazing and so cool Minimum wage is actually something that people can comfortably live off of, disabled people (of any kind) are able to comfortably take care of themselves without having to worry about money or accessibility, and people are able to do jobs they really want to. Also I think childcare should be very accessible!!!
  20. Oh yo pronoun buddies!!! Y’all, let me just say. Fern is so cool, just look at it!! It’s got such a cool pfp, and don’t even get me started on it’s pronouns (/pos). It should get to have it’s pronouns used often, that’s not fun that they aren’t :/
  21. Thank you so much, for both of your suggestions!! I think I will try and reach out to her, would you feel comfortable if I mentioned you when I email/talk to her?
