Any aros or aro-specs in existence of any sort, in any way, shape, or form? Love ‘em! They’re absolutely 100% valid!

This is just a reminder of how perfectly imperfect all of my lovely aros are. You are beautiful, and amazing, and rad, and lovely, and every positive affirmation ever. Don’t kid yourself into thinking that you’re not or that you’re not good enough or that you’re anything less because you’re aromantic or on the aromantic spectrum somewhere.

And you know what? That’s a year-round thing. This is the Aro Awareness Week, yeah, so it’s our time to really shine, but ya know what? Once this week is over, you’re still awesome, you still deserve awareness, and you still deserve the world. And I and so many others are trying so hard to make sure that you get just that.

Love you! 💚💚💚

...No romo, though. 😉

I just ran into a bunch of awesome demiromantic posts tonight, and not going to lie, it was beautiful. I rarely see stuff about demiromanticism (my daily reminder to make some of my own demiro content), and I’ve been struggling with my demiromanticism the past couple weeks, so seeing all these posts really helped and lifted my spirits.

I hope all aromantic people have a wonderful day!!!

To all aros and aro-specs

You are amazing as you are. You don’t need to change or try to be something else.
