i keep tinder to confirm that I'm aromantic (I will scroll for five minutes and be suddenly secure in my identity as an aro person) but something that is incredibly funny is how aggressive tinder notifications become when you use it on and off like this. Day one it's 'come back on the app— we're waiting for you!' and day seventeen is like 'we are coming for you. We will not be waiting. you will be ripped, thread of flesh by thread of flesh, apart until we no longer hear your screams for you will have no mouth to scream with' and then you go on the app for .3 seconds and your next one is 'Tinder gold 50% off just for you 😄'

i've identified as both aromantic and asexual for a really long time now and i'm questioning it over famous musician because i'm worried what i'm feeling towards him is more than just general aesthetic attraction

You know folks who get identity crisis over finding out they are ace, now get ready for folks who get identity crisis over finding out theyre allo! But on serious note, i used to think im aroace since i was like 14 and now i have to come to terms with fact that i might be allosexual (still 100% aromantic tho). It kinda sucks ngl. I took such pride in being aroace and felt very comfortable with that label. Felt almost superior sometimes. Im kind of hoping that im just a sex favorable ace or somewhere on the spectrum or that the allosexuality is ,,just a phase" (just like allos say that asexuality is a phase lol)

I know I'm asexual. I've known ever since I've heard the definition. I've never been fully comfortable with the aromantic label though. Objectively I feel I must fall under it but I keep hoping I'm actually demiromantic (I understand under the umbrella) or that I'll suddenly just meet "the one". What I can't tell is if I want really want is just a friend that will promise to never leave me.

When I was younger I would make up crush drama, either imaging that someone had a crush on me or picking a boy at random to be my "crush" I know that was for attention/the thrill of secrecy. I knew it even then on some level.

Lately though, I'm not so sure. I've been thinking about my best friend. I love her. And a thought came to me while we were hanging out, that if she asked me to runaway with her and be her girlfriend I would. And now I'm spiraling because what does that mean? Is that romantic love? Is that how much I'm willing to sacrifice to be her friend? Is this something that was suppressed due to internalized homophobia? Do I just really want a QPR and am projecting it into every relationship? I had similar thoughts about this guy I'm texting. Not full on running away but still. I brushed those off as more drama making but what if?

but it doesn't even matter because she's homophobic so why even consider it? Am I making up drama again for entertainment? Is this just my anxiety trying to prepare for any out come? I guess I just gotta wait and see. If aromatic ever feels comphy I can pick that up and if one of my friends decided to ask me out we'll just cross that bridge then.
