arolectriclady Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Hi guys! This article is not explicitly related to aromanticism, but I found this distinction super helpful as a way to understand how my behavior in potentially or explicitly romantic situations was an alert to genuine, deep-seated discomfort rather than just part of the nerves anyone (especially an inexperienced person) undergoes while dating. I think knowing the difference between these two sensations (excitement, or "butterflies" and anxiety, or "ugly butterflies") is really important for aros who attempt dating and maybe mistake their "ugly butterflies" for romantic attraction. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
