#aro spec

[krusty-28-28]

I hate telling people I’m aromantic. I hate it. I never talk about it really even with people who know because what’s the point in talking about it. I’m on the aromantic spectrum and I have a lovely boyfriend so people don’t think it affects me. Don’t get me started on having to teach a vocab lesson every time I tell someone, it’s genuinely draining. That’s why I stopped telling people.

Ahhh apparently my guy friend likes me, found out from my friend. Idk if I like him, but I'm still figuring out my aromanisism and sexuality and stuff. My friend who told me also told me that he's DOWN BAD and I don't know how to feel about that. Didn't even know I was lovable bro.

when I want partner but I don’t feel feelings for anyone

ever

fucking lying to myself all the goddamn time

I never liked her like that

my heart never beated harder around her

She never made me blush

I didn’t care about the outcome of my confession

I am just lonely

so lonely in fact that I would think that anything is a crush on someone when in reality I just needed a friend

I just needed someone who was there for me

and maybe someday I’ll find that person who can be my best friend and is my everything

who will actually talk to me

who won’t treat me as the last option

I feel like most of my friends don’t really care about me ya know

they really never text me without me texting first and they never hang out and they always are hanging around that absolute bitch L cos even though they know she’s a piece of shit they still do whatever the fuck she says anyways

I don’t even have a best friend because I am nobody’s best friend

always a second choice always the annoying one who follows people around because they don’t know how to enter a conversation

idk I’m just tired

why does everything have to be so difficult

why can’t I just have a queer platonic relationship with a best friend

why are people so hard to read (like k know im autistic but still) why can’t relationships just be easy

why can’t I just fall in love like other people

why do I feel nothing

I don't think I was ever romantically attracted towards anyone b4 and it was all js strong adoration

but idk romance is so complex to me bc everyone has different views on it like u can't get a straight answer if u ask what it is so how do u even know u're into somebody that way??

Aro lesbian culture is everyone thinking you're less aromantic because you still feel romantic attraction/get crushes... 😔

Reading on the LGBTQIA+ Wiki the definition of Quoiromantic/WTFromantic and I think that I might just land on this lol

I've been actively questioning whether I even experience romantic attraction for so long (since I was 15) that as the wiki says,

So yeah. Although I now use aro-spec as just a blanket way of saying I don't know if I experience romantic attraction, but even if I do, it's not on the same level of an alloromantic person. Of course I know I must experience some level of romantic attraction because I have gotten what I think are crushes, but I keep second guessing myself and well I'm Pan oriented on top of being quoiromantic/aro-spec.

Idk it just feels good to hold onto aromantic for some reason! I would feel really guilty letting it go because it would feel like I'm just being arophobic or something?

But also I want to start dating soon and will feel guilty if I tell the people I date, as I don't want to plant seeds of insecurity in their minds that I don't really love them or something. But I will also feel guilty if I don't tell them, because I don't want to hide anything about my identity from my partner!

I want to share everything about myself and hear everything about them in return! Uggghh... Either way I can't win
