(Though I have the fear, I don't feel like I'm making this up) •"It's alright, everything will be fine one day" (when I find "the one" apparently)" •"I understand what you meant by not getting attracted to anybody but you still can't be sure you'll be the same, what if you experience it one day?" (This makes me weirdly uncomfortable somehow) •"Are you planning on living alone for the rest of your life?! What's wrong with you??! You will regret this decision as you get old!!"

Isa1116 Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 (edited) -'Are aro and ace not the same thing?' -my brother -'If you feel romantic attraction to someone you also feel sexual attraction to them.'/ 'there is no such thing as split attraction.' -my brother again Me: *Comes out* Brothers and cousin: Ok..... I don’t care. My friend: *ignores me* (they aren't aphobic though) I know they ment well but that hurts :(. And one last one: you just hate love. -me (sorry if that was cringe lol) Edited December 28, 2022 by Isa1116 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(This makes me weirdly uncomfortable somehow) This one is tricky cause it is based on the right assumption that nobody knows future (except of you believe in voyance of course) but then take it to give the wrong conclusion. Maybe it'll change later, but then you just change label, it doesn't affect how you always felt until now. Also later may never comes, will you live your life waiting for it ? No. If someone tells you that you can answer "why be label yourself as *inside other orientation*, but how can you be sure you'll be the same ?" They will probably argue that the case is different but they would be wrong. Seriously can you picture people at marriage be like "why do you take an engagement for life, you don't know the future ?" ??? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
