  1. If anyone would like to share if they have pets, or photos of their pets, here is the place! I want to see adorable creatures guys please. I'll go first! I have a Doberman pinscher names Tiberius, a Bearded Dragon named Griffin, and a Crested Gecko named Petri! Here is a pic of Tiberius (he's very goofy) Also- the background of the image is blurred out for privacy reasons. I recommend being careful about not showing faces if you choose to upload a photo!
  2. When I'm in that situation I usually just say " I'm focusing more on myself right now," or "I'm not really interested in a relationship." But I know that those are more temporary fixes and don't address the real issues. If they start to get really pushy, you could set some boundaries by telling them you aren't interested in others in that way or something (Similar to what nonmerci was saying- you don't necessarily need to use the term Aromantic.) I'm sorry you're feeling pressured, I think some allos just genuinely can't understand aromanticism, and it sounds like your friends are trying to relate with you. I hope your friends understand that being in a romantic relationship is not a priority for you, and they support you for it! :)
  3. Happy for you! Congratulations!
  4. The first recorded mention of pancakes was in 600 BC from a poet in ancient Greece. This breakfast treat was made of wheat flour, olive oil, honey, and curdled milk which is a little different from the pancakes we know today.
  5. Hey, I'm Echo! I'm AroAce and my 'nouns are she/her. Glad you found your way to the forums!
  6. @BasicallyEmoPotato Oh the first sentence means "Family is more than blood." and the second one roughly means "You can run, but you'll only die tired." ...I know.... 😅
  7. In the cases you do feel something, do you know what triggers it?
  8. I'm quite passionate about taekwondo (actually learning to be an instructor rn), and unfortunately I admit that I think a lot about what I would have to do in order to disarm someone or defend myself from some random on the street lol It does get quite violent as well... but a lot of my silly fantasies are anyway
  9. I am doing an art commission for this lady, and of course she wanted a pet portrait. But I kid you not, she sends my the most grainy, far-away photo of her dog behind a fence and tells me to "Just infer" what it looks like.

    I have asked her to send more images twice in person, and in an email, but she still hasn't, and I'm on a deadline. sigh

      Oh no. Good luck! It might be best to cancel and tell her that you're not the right artist for her. D: Sounds like the type of client who isn't worth working with, tbh.

    2. Nix

      Yeah, I would advice you to cancel as well, because she sounds like a problem client. Also, what pet owner does not have a bazillion pictures of their pet in the weirdest poses (or am I the weird one here)

      I really wish I could cancel, but half the problem is that this is a school-related assignment. I am not allowed to cancel, which is a bit frustrating.

  10. Definitely not looking for a relationship now, and since I'm very introverted, I do prefer solitude.
  11. False, but I looked it up and it looks interesting! I'll have to read it. TPBM enjoys Star Wars
  12. It definitely doesn't sound like you are in a healthy state of mind or atmosphere. I'm sorry you are feeling so conflicted, and I hope things turn out ok.
  13. Welcome! Glad to see you here!
  14. Hey I'm Echo! I love books too (probably more than people to be honest!), what's your favorite book?
  15. Ooh nice! I wish I knew how to crochet lol..
  16. Hey welcome! I hope you feel comfortable here!
