I can make a really accurate seagull impression

Glasses don't make you look nerdy they make you look stupid. I should know, I wear glasses. Shoes are better at storing food than bowls.

The Sims 4 cannot be the worst The Sims game because they are two separate games. Unlike many will say, funky barn is not the greatest video game of all time.

"ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY GREAT ONE, WE WILL NOT DO THE FORBIDDEN ACTS IN FRONT OF THE GREAT ONE"

One day my cousin talked to me about his romantic life, and the entire time I'm thinking "Why is he talking to me about it?". I don't care about it at all, which sounds harsh, but it's true.

•"You just haven't found the right person." That's like saying "The microwave isn't heating the food? I'm sure it will eventually. "

You're in school and one of your classmates walks up to you. Classmate: Who do you like? You: (Oh shoot I guess I need to name someone.) You: Uhhh, I like (name of someone in my class) Classmate: Oooooh I'm telling! You: crap.

I have come to terms that I am indeed aromantic. But I want to focus on my journey realizing this, because I want to help people who are figuring out their identities. It started when I saw a video about being aroace. They were talking about their experience, and when they explained aromanticism a lot of it resonated with me. I started questioning if I fell into that category. After a bit I decided I wasn't. After that I continued on with my life, but that video stuck with me, in the back of my mind. I decided to look more into aromanticism (As great as the video was they simplified it a lot). I feel like at this point I should have known I was aro at this point, because it fit me incredibly well! But I told myself I just don't know. That's something about being aro that can be tricky, because you can easily tell yourself you just haven't met the right person. So I kept telling myself "I don't know", when I ask myself about it. Until one day. It was a normal moment, I don't really remember much about it at all. The question crossed my mind again. I thought back to the video. At that moment I realized, that if I told myself that I can't know for sure every time I wondered if I was aro, then I would never know. And that's when I realized I was aromantic. I probably should have connected the dots earlier, but I don't think I was just confused. It felt like a small part of me didn't want to be aro. Romance is taught to be a basic emotion, but it's not like that for many people. I don't feel something that everyone around me does. So if I said I wouldn't know unless I felt it, than I would feel better about not feeling romantic attraction, and something so big in media wouldn't be absent from my life. But I realized that I can't stay in denial forever. Being aro is awesome, but it's hard not feeling something everyone else can. Heck, that's why websites like this even exist. So I just want to say that if you are struggling with this, don't worry. You aren't any less valid, and you aren't alone.

I saw a video about about being aroace. When they were talking about aromanticism, a lot of it resonated with me, and even though it took a bit for me to accept it, I realized I fell under that category.

Hi! I'm Peanut_Butter_Sandwich, or at least that's my username. My pronouns are he/him. I recently learned about aromanticism, so I still have a lot to learn, but I believe I am aromantic heterosexual. My interests are videogames, tv shows, generally nerdy stuff. So I just wanted to say hi!
