    Maybe have a talk with them about it.

    This! If you feel uncomfortable with the way things are going in your relationship it is best to talk about those feelings so that way you and your friend can come to an agreement as to where the both of you want to take your relationship next, communication is key 🙆‍♀️

  2. Loss of attraction is a common thing, or at least it was in my case 🙋‍♀️ I felt romantic attraction at some point in my life when I was 13 and never again have I experienced it. I imagine sexual attraction can't be too different 🤷‍♀️

    All the asexual people I’ve met say they’ve never felt it, so is it too daikon for me to say I am one?

    If you think the label fits you, then go for it! If you want to consult it with other aces, however, you might wanna check out AVEN

  3. Ahh, Encanto, a very sweet movie about family and expectations with a point that flew over most people's heads. The emphasis made by the fandom on characters having romantic relationships (Camilo especially) and their sexualities was probably the most unnecessary thing ever in my opinion. (it's a movie about FAMILY, why can't people just focus on that?)

    I personally had no problem with people's headcanons (Isabela included), it's just a headcanon after all! I will say, however, some people were way too excited to bring down anything regarding Isa being a lesbian, and a few others were also way too excited and happy to group us all together as these evil people ruining fandom spaces...

    My friend refused to leave a toxic relationship because then she wouldn't be dating anyone, and she thought that was worse.

    If I had a dime for every time I heard of a similar case I'd have at the very least 10 dimes, goes to show just how normalized this type of ideology is 🤦‍♀️

  5. A lot of people (predominantly alloallo people) sadly treat aromanticism like a joke, I for one blame ace discourse on tumblr.

    As for tips, I'd recommend asking them to stop with the jokes, if they support you they'll understand that they're harmful to you, your identity is just as important as theirs. (also, if they're not aro then it's not their place to joke about aromanticism? they should know better, especially if they're part of the community)
