One thing I never realized when I was younger was how it was possible to have a close relationship with someone without being romantically involved with them. I’m aro, and I never realized the difference between romantic attraction with other types of attraction (aesthetic, sensual, etc.) when I was younger.

I spent years thinking that finding someone pretty or wanting to cuddle with someone was romantic attraction. I never learned that there were more types of attraction than just romantic and sexual until I came to tumblr and read about aromanticism and asexuality.

Even though I’m aroace, I still want a close relationship with someone. I just don’t want romance. This is why education and awareness on aromanticism, asexuality, and different types of attraction is so so important.

There are more than likely so many people out there who are like me: never knowing that what they experience has a name. Knowing that you’re not alone and that there is a whole community based on what you experience is so important.

ahahaha story time

So I was sitting in the student union eating my pizza dinner watching the Game Grumps play Mario Party and this guy just walks up to my table. And I’m just like hi? And he says that he was sitting over there and he wanted to see if he could get to know me (aka I just got randomly hit on).

I just kinda look at him in shock for a second because this has never happened to me before and I didn’t really realize what was happening until he said unless you’re taken? And I was like OH this is awkward I’m gay.

He was super nice about it tbh he was like oh my god I’m so sorry and I of course said it was fine and he said that his roommate was bi and I’m like ?? Not relevant but okay cool (I guess it was his way of showing support for the community)

But the whole point of that was I just low key came out for the first time. That was the first time I told someone in real life that I’m gay. It just kinda came out. (Lol joke) I’ve only ever had my sexuality in my bio on here before. I’ve not told anyone in my real life because I don’t live in an accepting area so I am SO DEEP in the closet.

But idk I’m still not sure how to feel about it and I’m trying to not let comp het take over my thoughts and trying to tell myself I didn’t lie to him. Idk if that’s what it’s like for everybody or if it’s just me. But I can’t stop thinking of what if’s of what would have happened if I’d have said yes. I would have probably been really uncomfortable (like I wasn’t uncomfortable in the first place). I’m always super uncomfortable when men show any sort of attraction to me but idek.

I’m still plagued with thoughts like what if I’m actually bi and I’m just lying to myself and then I remember I get so icked out by guys and uncomfortable with attention beyond friendship from guys.

I’ve only finally figured out I’m gay in the past nine months or so but I don’t know if I’m ready to come out for real. I guess this was the universe just throwing it at me and telling me it’s time. I just hope it’s right. We’ll see.

And fuck I’ve gotta take two finals tonight and I can’t get this outta my head.

My favorite thing ever is when you’re listening to music that you haven’t listened to from an artist you already like, and they use lyrics from a song you know in a song you don’t know. That realization of “oh wait how do I know these lyrics?” is the absolute best.
