  1. Same! I started actually learning English in my teenage years, so many songs everyone were obsessed with, I didn’t understand And thanks for the recommendation! I’ll check it out That’s so interesting! I think you can also interpret it as our role as advice givers to alloromantics. Because we’re so done with all the drama in their love lives, we’ve become kinda numb and tell them it’s useless and should end it. And they reply to us that we’re just lonely and will be alone forever
  2. To be honest, for a long time I thought that romantic attraction (RA) is just sexual+platonic (S+P) attraction. So now I know that romantic attraction is an attraction on its own, yet I still think that s+p is enough for a relationship. Many allos have sex without RA, but when aros do it, they suddenly have a problem. Im cupioromantic bisexual, so I feel S attraction and want to be in a relationship. I just know I won’t be RA to them. I came out to my family (they said not to lose hope, I’ll find someone someday 😂). I came out to my friends, they were supportive but confused. So far I didn’t pursue any relationship cause I live in a homophobic country. But if I will, my family will judge me (they’re conservative) but my friends will support me (they’re harlots at heart 😂 ) As for society, I think many people are very uneducated. Our traits have been associated with negative people (“fckboys", “hard to get”, “cold hearted psychopaths”, etc), so obviously they get offended by our existence (I’m not defending them btw). I think for now we should ignore them (I know it’s easier said than done). We should also try to get represented more in media. As for should you come out to your partner. There isn’t a definite answer. It solely depends on a situation. As people above mentioned, for random hookups, the only thing you must mention, is STDs, you aren’t obligated to come out to them. For a more committed relationship, you can say that you’re aro. But you can’t control what the other person feels. They can fall in love whether you told them you’re aro or not. Allos also had a lot of relationships with mutual benefits, then one side fell in love. That happens with everyone. So as you can see, it’s very interesting and unique Hope my rambles helped ✨
  3. 🥦🐸🐇👽🏴‍☠️Hello and HAPPY PRIDE MONTH EVERYONE!!!!!🏳️‍⚧️❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 Today my favorite childhood song randomly started playing in my head. The more I sang, the more I realised that it’s a great aro representation (even tho the group didn’t intend it to be). It’s a Russian song «Зачем» (What for) by a group “5sta family”. If you know Russian, definitely check it out, if you don’t but still curious, here’s a translation in English https://lyricstranslate.com/ru/зачем-what.html Its about a woman and a man. No matter how much the man tries, the woman can’t fall in love with him. And she has no idea why, as the man is a great guy, buying her gifts, complimenting her and treating her like a queen. Yet she still feels nothing. It’s not perfect, it does imply the woman has other lovers. But the overall idea sounds like she’s aro Do you have a favorite childhood song that also seems to describe aromantic experience? Please share them
  4. In Russian it’ll be аромантик (aromantic). While I was checking, I found that in Ukrainian it’s the same
