  1. I know there's already a topic on dreams, but I wanted to make a poll, see what's out there. I personally (almost) always in third person and am rarely in my dreams, but I know there's a lot of variation among my friends alone. Also, I'm aware lucid dreaming is a thing, and I want to know if there's anyone who lucid dreams whose dreams are often in third person.
  2. Bird. I could be a parrot and they live real long, plus I feel like underwater is generally more dreary than on land/in trees. Fried rice or lo mein?
  3. Alternatively, assumed you were bi or pan because you felt equally towards all genders.
  4. Dated someone because you felt like you were supposed to.
  5. We could describe a romantic relationship as a committed relationship in which all parties agree their feelings are not strictly platonic. My thought process on this is I know what I do feel: platonic attraction, so I describe it using terms I can identify with myself. I recognize not all people feel platonic attraction, so this won't work for everyone, but it's what makes sense to me.
  6. Both. Who needs sleep? But actually stay up late, cause that's when you can do things with your friends. Boats or trains?
  7. I always dream in third person, and I'm not normally in my dreams. The weirdest one involved people whose skin was purple and the ground was gemstone and there were floating rivers of blood and gravity wasn't working right at all, then there were some earthquakes that ended up inverting everything? Then the color theme change from cool colors to warm and their skin was orange and there was a lot of yellow and yellow-green and they went on a journey through retextured Civ V hexagons.
  8. I took the Pottermore quiz and it offered me a choice of everything but Gryffindor? (self-preservation is my primary character trait) I chose Hufflepuff, so yay, Hufflepuff! Then the Divergent one put me in Candor, which, ahaha, haha, ha. Let's ignore that. Then I got that I was the child of Dionysus, which is ironic because I don't drink, but I'm all for fun at the cost of sleep!
  9. I feel like I need a roommate to function at my finest. I just enjoy being with my friends all the time, I'm the happiest I've ever been, and as time passes they're all just going to drift away and that terrifies me. I love them all so much, but it's not the kind of love that gets people to stay. That might be the root of my dislike of my aromanticism. It's been ground into my brain by society that romantic love is superior, so I feel like if I can't experience it I'm not living my life to the fullest.

    As far as MMOs go I was big into Guild Wars, then Guild Wars 2 a year or two back. The combat and exploration was amazing, the story mediocre. The biggest draw for me ended up being World v World v World, which is weird cause I'm not normally into PvP. The Bioware Star Wars MMO though... I went all the way through the Imperial Agent story line free to play, that's how much I adored it. The combat and actual mmo aspects aren't great, but that story was a masterpiece.
  11. I also get really afraid that my friends will develop crushes on me. It's happened twice before and it's absolutely awful. I care about them so much, but I can't the way they want me to and it kills both of us.
  12. I decided I would appreciate a place to just vent about how aromanticism affects my plans for the future. For example, the fear that all of my friends are going to pair off with someone else who will take over their lives and leave me with no one. My mom has one friend from college she stays in contact with, and she sees her maybe twice a year, and they live within two hours of each other. My dad has been reconnecting with people on facebook some, but he barely ever sees his friends too.
  13. Unlimited supply of food. I like it too much. Red starbursts or pink?
  14. I second the Rey headcanon. I want so much for her to not end up in a relationship with someone but I feel like her and Finn are going to be together. It's not bad, as far as ships go, I just want her on her own.
  15. Not sure I could ever choose anything but Degenerate Apple Scum. Immortality or difficult to control mind reading?

    Final Fantasy X has been my lifeblood since I've been six, and I've definitely put more than a hundred hours into Civ. Dragon Age is pretty sweet, and this summer I'm finally going to get around to Mass Effect. Oh, and game music totally helps you focus; I often listen to it when I'm studying. Any of you into tabletop role playing games? D&D, World of Darkness, Edge of the Empire and the like? Also, hidden traitor board games like Avalon/Resistance? Board games in general, really. Betrayal at the House on the Hill is great too.
  17. Whenever someone asks "So... who do you like?" I panic a little. In middle school, after I learned that it was unacceptable to not have a crush on someone, I just chose people at random. Now, when I'm in the process of accepting my aromanticism and trying to be honest with myself, when I hear that question my head automatically goes to the 'gotta think of someone it would be alright for me to pretend to have a crush on' thought line, but I also would like to be honest. I lie too much in general, but for aro stuff it's hard not to, if it's not with my friends.
  18. I'd be all for it. In fact, that's probably close to my ideal living situation. I'm currently in college and adore living with my friends. The real dream for me would be living in a house with all of my friends for the rest of my life, but as that's impossible I'd take a platonic marriage any day of the week.
  19. I was in a relationship for about 3/4 of a year. Looking back I realize I only agreed to it because it was just a thing you were supposed to do. It was a lot of mental effort, probably because I was trying to like him romantically and wasn't particularly attached to him platonically. Somewhat unusual, but I am open to a romantic or sexual relationship, as long as my partner understands that I will never love them romantically. I'm not at all repulsed by romance, and the idea of being committed to staying with each other sounds very nice, especially with the idea that all my friends are going to get married and leave me.
  20. I thought I was bi for awhile, but then just kind of didn't think about it for awhile. I realized I was ace first, but then I had a boyfriend and over the course of that nonsense decided I was aro.
  21. Foreign Language classes. There's always a unit every class that's about romance and relationships and your ideal date or whatever, and you have to just make up everything because you need to show you know the vocab.
