so i’ve been thinking and I realized that I don’t really like relationships all that much, I like parts of them, sure. But overall, they aren’t my favorite thing.
I enjoy the intimacy and closeness with another person, a person that we can each call ours more or less. But like, I don’t enjoy all the pressure with dating and am not very touchy or enjoy that stuff all that much really.
But, honestly, just loving someone and knowing that I matter to them and can be a close friend of theirs is enough...and that the all fabled “more” really isn’t that necessary. I just want someone that I’m really close too, and that I be really close to them as well and am an important figure in their lives and if physical stuff happens, it happens I guess, but it doesn’t really matter all that much to me. I may think about it sometimes, but it doesn’t feel like anything more than a passing fancy.
I’m sort of curious if this falls on the aromantic scale at all actually? I mean, I have shipped others before and myself with others, but that’s all it really feels like. Rarely anything more serious than that.
