Sad aro Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 I don't understand the use of the term "late bloomer" that I have seen a several times now in discussions on Arocalypse. No one knows the future and everyone who hasn't experienced romantic attraction yet, could possible be a late bloomer. That invalidates us. Cause it's impossible to set an age limit for passing the possibility that you're just a late bloomer. Or have I missed something? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But by that logic then it’s sure? People constantly change in all sorts of ways, and if they keep moving the goalpost then no one will actually get to enjoy the single life and spend 90% of their time worrying. I’m still doing a lot of that but strangely I seem to answer my own worries when someone else asks the same questions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny, because I've identified as aro for...close to two years now. And I had a relationship where it could have been said I was in love, but I still felt very aro, even during the relationship. Like, I didn't want to kiss him or anything. And I'm ace so *shrugs* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
