  1. I kid you not, my brain was bugging me to try and tell if I’m attracted to people so I just search “celebrities” and scroll down for like several minutes and im just like “WHY ARE NONE OF YOU ATTRACTIVE!” I don’t even know why I did that, I just… did. Why am I even talking about this.

      By attractive im guessing you mean can I develop a celebrity crush just by looking at pictures online. Correct me if im wrong im just assuming


      Im just curious…

      Do you find any of them attractive in a purely aesthetic sense? 

      Do you find any of them squish worthy? 
       

      If you don’t care for them romantically you can still possibly find them attractive in other ways.

      Aesthetically, most everyone is. No one really platonically, there’s like 3-4 celebrities that just sound like nice people to be around but I don’t have any strong desire to be around them. I just don’t see how one can develop a crush on any of them simply by looks but so many people seem to do so, so out of pure curiosity or something I looked around. 

  2. Anyone here ever been like this in your own mind:

    ”How do I know if I’m not suppressing attraction?”

    ”If you’ve gotta ask that question then you really aren’t. Also if that’s what you’re worried about, the next time your feel aesthetic attraction, try and pursue that.”

    ”No that sounds weird, I don’t wanna do that.”

    ”EXACTLY!”

  3. Also I’m gonna get onto Minecraft in like 30 minutes if you want to play. Tbh I just wanna see what’s going on, maybe if I get enough wool we can make an aroace flag!

      Not long, and to be honest I’m not gonna give it much thought.

      Hm I it’s funny is that I fought with sexuality for a year and gender for a week.

      Gender seems to weirdly be easier than sexuality whenever it’s talking about determining if I lack sexuality at all. I would honestly be surprised if it changed, I’ve felt the same all my life. High libido, no actual attraction.

  5. So today at dinner the topic of marriage and having kids came up somehow and then I commented how I didn’t want kids. Mom responded with “that’ll change in a couple of years” and “you’re gonna fall in love with someone at some point”. I really did think for a bit that I would be off the hook on this by now, I’ve told them several times that I just want friends, kids and relationships just sound boring or unfulfilling to me. And once again she responds to that with “there’s nothing that’s more fulfilling than having a wife” and “having friends won’t fill that void” which is just WAY more than I thought would normally have been said. In 30 seconds mom managed to tear down all of my hope that they’d be super okay with this, now I’m worried that if I came out in two years then they’d just say the internet said I was, or that I was making it up. I really thought for a bit that they’d be okay with it.

      To me, I’d be far happier getting a good job, having a nice house, and visiting family on the occasion as the “cool uncle” that just messes around with the nieces and nephews despite having no children of my own.

      Oh yeah I'd LOVE to be a Cool Aunt

      Yeah that just sounds fun, besides it’d mean that I could still have a positive impact on the family without having kids! I don’t even have to be “the last of the bloodline” because my brothers still exist so…

  6. Hey so how were you sure that you were aroace? I haven’t had very much experience at all and that’s kinda the only thing keeping my personal arguements against being aroace valid.

      First of all I'll say that I am a teenager, so my experience may change overtime. But I discovered being aroace because I never had any crushes and sex or first kiss is definitely not interesting or a goal I have. I prefer being by myself or with friends and I'm very touch averse too. Dating is also not something I'm interested in and I do not relate to romantic media

    2. HelloThere

      HelloThere

      Yeah same here. I mean the only reason that my brain wants the “first Kiss” is because I’ll be more sure if I feel anything? Idk that’s a VERY wrong philosophy for my brain to have and I’m not even interested in dating. Whenever I think of dating my brain just equates it to “fun activity (like movies) with friend”. XD 

      I guess the only thing keeping me unsure is my lack of experience, because that’s kinda how a few people seemed to be sure. 

  7. Today I get the absolute “joy” of reading Romeo and Juliet in English class. 😩

      That story (and the movies) are absolutely disgusting and horrifying.

      It’s honestly amazing that this is considered fine for kids (not even 3 lines in two rival families were talking about banging each others maids) but educating people on LGBTQ topics is somehow indoctrination. Seriously! I’d make a class in that subject if I could, maybe it could accompany sex ed and start around then?
