It's not from the show directly, it's from a fan spin-off called 'Friendship is Witchcraft'. I'm glad to hear it's spread to other fandoms; it's my favourite random song

AROCALYPSE IS FIVE TIMES MORE REVITALISING THAN BUTTER! PASS IT ON

The problem is, 'romantic attraction' is the same as, for example, describing a colour: although it is a thing which can and does exist it can only be described through things other than itself. For colours you use things that are that colour or emotions a colour envokes. For romantic attraction, we end up using the emotions, desires and actions envoked by the attraction to describe it, but these things vary between people and there is no one generalisation that can be applied to every person of the many who experience romantic attraction. And that was a short essay as to why romantic attration and other abstract concepts are a pain to define, but also that doesn't mean they don't exist. Also, despite saying that I think it's good to have a thread where we try and define/describe romantic attraction even if we don't succeed/can't be consistent/don't agree. I'll put my thinking hat on and see if I can come up with a definition.

As someone who does experience sexual attraction, I can understand this idea some-what. Maybe think when you have chocolate and you know you should stop eating it because it will make you feel sick, but you eat more anyway because you want more of the nice taste and sugar rush. Or maybe if you're an overly curious person like me, you find a new thing and you enjoy learning about it, then you keep hunting for more about it until you end up in some weird dark corner of the internet and you are still curious and there is still new, interesting information so you ignore the fact that it's to grusome/dark/explicit for you because you're still chasing that feeling. I don't know how many people those examples will help, or if they're really that helpful, but what I'm trying to describe is the times where you chase a feeling (reward) that you are no longer getting or maybe you can get it but at a big cost. That experience can happen with romantic and/or sexual attraction and stop people from realising the flaws in their relationships. I also think it's a bad thing, and I wish it wasn't promoted as a normal thing or 'romantic' (as in the adjective, not the orientation). In some situations I think it's definitely not a glue, it's a blindfold and and a drug EDIT: I just noticed that I could have worded this better to make it clear I'm talking about when a relationship is hollow and only has the 'fairy dust'. At other times, the 'fairy dust' is generally more helpful and a good thing

HAIL THE GLORY OF CAPSLOCKIA

I've had this happen to me with straight guys as well, 3 times in total. It would always really shock me because I've always had a mix of male and female friends so I don't think of they way they treat me before they ask me out as anything special, but I sure as hell was scared of them afterwards. It also makes me very suspicious of all my other friends for a while. I keep putting off shareing mine, but since I'm posting anyway. My fears connected to my aromanticism are how it affects my mental health. Every time someone has asked me out my reaction has got worse (since the same old thing of them continuing to pursue me happens everytime), and this may be only one of a number of things which makes it worse but it causes the most damage. It would be much easier to get better if I wasn't living in fear of another metaphorical bomb being dropped.

I made some with a family friend once. Full on by hand, using a bowl of ice and everything. It took forever but tasted great

I haven't thought about either of these before, but now I've been told them yes, I can definitely see them. Now I really want to re-watch both series (again) I'm a big fan of the idea of Supernatual's Dean being aro too. I actually don't really think of the character as being aro, but he's my favourite so I'm quite happy to project myself on to him a ton and no one can stop me!

Those are the best things! I miss mochi you can't get decent stuff here
