Momo

1895

I think she skipped it because I mentioned it in another thread

@Momo I thought you didn't understand shitposts...

I've got 1892 problems but a shitpost ain't one.

I mean, this thread is basically shit-post heaven. I feel like the 'count to one million thread' would have done better if one also had to make a sentence out of the number...

New words.

Animals arguing with other animals, yapping our arguments at each others unlistening ears. 

Much to my dismay now, I was in several romantic relationships. Most I can now trace to a squish and misguided feelings. I've always wanted a relationship of some form though, it's just taken a while to work out what it would look like.

Lets see, first lets discount all the long-distance shenanigans. They were mostly pointless.

Then, my first attempt at asking someone out in high school was an embarrassing mess. This was year 12, so I would have been 18 - long after most of my friends had paired up at least once.

Next up, the girl with a kid. She was nice, and my first sexual partner. I'm embarrassed i didn't see the signs in this one earlier. I didn't mind the sex but I was more interested in cuddling afterwards, which she always misinterpreted.

Anyway, next one wasn't for a few years. Miserable thing that devolved to an unfulfilling sexual relationship within a week and dissolved completely soon after.

My longest relationship was with my now-roommate which was around 5 years long. We broke up soon after we'd had some troubles and I worked out I was aro and I wasn't ever going to actually be able to give her what she wanted. We still live together as friends - one day we'll go our separate ways. She's allo so no doubt she'll find someone else and want to move on then if not sooner.

I see your false fact and raise you: All babies are born asexual.

Time to insert some new facts

You can fall asleep whenever you like at the cost of being able to wake up when you like. No matter what you try, your body refuses to wake due to external forces. One day you sleep through your own funeral and wake in a box six feet under.

I wish I didn't feel sick every morning.

it is easier to come up with wishes than corruptions, but you can't come up with corruptions any more and can't play the game any more

This is basically the case anyway, just the other way around. 

Banned for not agreeing with yourself.

Banned because I third that.

Oh, agreed.

I'd rather go camping tgm.

I'd rather eat fancy dinners than get married.

Case in point, I'm going to have breakfast out tomorrow morning. Hopefully it's a nice day for a walk afterwards.

I want to know everything you'd rather do than get Married..

Can I make a list of things I'd not rather do than get married? It'd probably be a shorter list.

Anyway, here goes: I'd rather cuddle my cat than cuddle my wife.

Banned because people often listen but almost as often refuse to hear.

Banned because you can always speak, people can choose to listen or not on their own.

Banned because no one asked you anyway.

Banned for all eternity because I said so. 

Banned because I have no secrets, you just haven't asked the right questions yet.

One day you throw yourself at the floor and miss and find yourself floating in mid air. Unfortunately you can never land nor lower your altitude.

I wish I could travel more.

because of this and the general notion that most of the people I want to be QP with cant do QP because they either are confussed by the concept or "want to be more than friends" I am pretty sceptical on being QPR with allo-people.

Having tried for this a few times now, the only way I see this working out long-term is if they also have a romantic partner but that can be a difficult thing to balance for all three people.

I don't have crushes or squishes, but I am in a QPR with an allo person. We were friends before we were in a QPR, and I'd told them that I was aro and they were cool with it; they identified as ace at the time, so they were familiar with the concept of romantic and sexual attraction being separate.

This is awesome to hear about.

Hmm for me, there is a bit of possessiveness/jealousy in a weird way, though it is not due to any romantic feeling but simply because of how hard it is for me to get really close to someone. I would feel like I am not good enough when I see someone else is closer to said person, friendship-wise.

I get this too, though usually the only person I really get jealous of is the persons romantic partner. I don't want to be romantically involved with them but I feel bad about their romantic partner monopolising them.

-----

So, lets start with the fact I don't feel like I crush at all. But my squishes are fast and furious, especially if I act on them. If I don't then they can drag out for a few weeks at most. If I do pursue them though they can die down in as little as a day or two.

* My squishes are triggered by interactions with the person - this is a defining feature to me. Crushes seem to able to be directed at virtually anyone; see also love at first sight. 

* Strong feelings of connection and a desire to talk to and spend time with the person

* I get a strong urge to be close to them physically, hugging and such - it's hard for me to decide if this is actually part of the squish or not because I have this feeling with all my close friends. May be tied to the above point - feeling super connected despite barely knowing them yet.

Someone mentioned not wanting to kiss as being a defining feature for them but I feel like this isn't true for all aro's. It is probably a helpful guideline for greyro people though. For me, I don't get an explicit urge to kiss my squishes, though I might if I felt in the mood to kiss and they were ok with it.

Banned for not having a secret stash.
