I take it easier but if it’s irl it’s gonna be bad. I legit had a meltdown before but I think that I’d survive that. I mean I’d come off disrespectful possibly but I’d survive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, they sometimes seem like the insane ones. 46 minutes ago, HelloThere said: Or when they randomly kiss in the middle of a fight. Like that one scene in pirates of the Caribbean where they marry as they’re literally fighting two large groups at once. It’s stupid, they both know they’ll live. Yessss! It really is stupid. They're allowed to like each other. But staying alive and saving everyone takes priority over confessing their feelings. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They talk about how not liking people that way is childish and then I see them go into some sort of depressive state when their partner looks at someone of the opposite gender for .5 seconds more than they’d like.

Yeah tbh I’d rather not share a bed with anyone much less the actual thing. I mean a high libido definitely messes with surety but almost all the time I’m generally on the NO side for that, nor have I felt that urge for any person irl. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 When my cousin and my brother talked about their girlfriend and I was panicking, thinking of a way to get out of there, and I was thinking about that one Silverchair song about not falling in love.

The Newest Fabled Creature Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 (edited) A strong aro moment I tend to feel constantly, is like this psychological slap to the face whenever someone tries to ask me about my romantic life or if someone confides to me that they like me, or someone they know likes me. It's a strange feeling. It feels like a part of me just shuts off tbh. I also feel it when people misgender me, too.

LifezVictory Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 There have been times when characters in stuff I read or watch get together and people are like "I knew it! There was so much subtext and chemistry!" But to me it felt like it happened out of nowhere, and I thought it was just people's tendency to romantically ship everyone before it became canon.

aro_elise Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 when you're briefly startled whenever you're reminded people have romantic partners. the particular moment i'm thinking of is when the guy i'm sleeping with mentioned an ex of his and i was like, oh right, it would be more surprising if he didn't have any. but yeah it happens pretty much every time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolK Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Reading upside down an asexual romance. I have never experienced romantic attraction affecting my heart rate or butterflies that could not just be explained by the fear of being vulnerable with someone weather they are a romantic partner or not. Like is romantic attraction just people being more vulnerable with a specific person than they would any other? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kassaro Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 It took me a pretty long time to figure out I was aro, but it makes sense looking back. Like when there was a birthday party with my classmates and everyone talked about their crushes. I couldn't contribute to the conversation at all. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
