For me, I suspected that I was Aro when I first heard it being discussed on YouTube. Then I asked myself, "Is that really what I am? But I still think that having some form of significant other might be nice." Then I asked myself the really big question. Why? I came up with 3 answers right away. 1: Sex. 2: As a safety net in case something went terribly wrong. 3: Convenience, so that we can each do the chores that the other one is bad at. I then sat there for 20 minutes trying & failing to think of a 4th reason.

I've noticed that there seems to be a lot of gray area in what it means to be Aro. Not only are there different levels of being turned off/uninterested in romance, but there's also the fact that different people define romance in different ways & each person seems to be bothered by different aspects of it. For some it may be the hand-holding & pet names, while others might find dating or sharing a living space uncomfortable. Still others might be bothered by the whole thing & only wish to do friends with benefits or something like that. How do you define romance & what part of

Thanks ^_^

Hello. So, I figured out that I was Aro around a month & a half ago. I mean, I always knew that I was the way I am, but I had no idea that there was a name for it. Nice to know that I'm not the only one.
