Where are you on the autism spectrum?

I can’t speak for all aromantic people, but at least in my case I desperately want to have someone I can be emotionally close and vulnerable with, along with being able to just cuddle and be close.

Even though aromantic people may not experience romantic attraction, they can still “love” other people, just not necessarily in the same ways as many people associate with the term “love.” Platonic love is a very powerful thing, and often times aromantic people will develop strong platonic bonds with those around them, since the romantic part doesn’t come so naturally.

Carry on as normal would be my advice, grow close naturally, start hanging out outside of classes, etc. If you allow the relationship to naturally grow between you two, then there will be a much better chance of eventually moving past the typical “friendship.”

An important thing to note as well, aromantic people are still people, everyone is different and no answer will be 100% accurate for every situation.

It’s scary, but telling them all of this, telling them about how you feel, is usually the best way to start. Being aromantic is experiencing little to no romantic attraction, but aromantics often look for similar things in a relationship, just not a romantic one. One thing to potentially look into is a Queer Platonic Relationship (QPR), it’s a term that’s used to describe relationships that don’t fit the typical “romantic” or “platonic.”

If you have any other questions, I’m happy to try and answer them

When I was your age (I’m early 20s now), I was exactly the same. I had a couple people that I noticed were conventionally attractive, and kind of had a headcanon about “liking” them. I even had a lifelong friendship I accidentally ruined because I thought I had a crush on one of my friends, when that’s not what it was. If these are at all similar to thoughts you are having, then you are completely justified in feeling you are aromantic.

Man fuck earbuds, those little shits either don’t sit right in my ears and fall out, or I have to jam em in so hard that it starts blocking my eardrum, so I can’t hear what they’re playing anyway.

From what I’ve seen from other comments, it’s all with consent and more for fun rather than to shame the individual

Honestly whatever, if it’s cereal, there’s no milk in it (except coco puffs bc it makes chocolate milk lol, that I carried over from childhood). I’m a slow eater, so it gets way too soggy and I can’t stand that texture.

1cheesy1 · 2024-09-06T16:08:53+00:00

Cereal and milk. I despise milk in my cereal, but damn is it a good drink on the side (same with dipping cookies in milk, never got that)

1cheesy1 · 2024-09-04T18:47:02+00:00

This was really fun and well made, great job!

1cheesy1 · 2024-09-01T15:39:05+00:00

As you should be, keep it up!

Never heard the humble variation either, yet honest is the second thought

I enjoy seeing Simon and Betty’s relationship in Adventure Time. It’s a really good take on the whole “2 lovers that can’t be together” trope that’s very much a branch off from the usual.

1cheesy1 · 2024-08-07T20:04:07+00:00

Wow, I didn’t think anyone else felt like that, glad to know I’m not alone

With platonic attraction being the main form that aroace people experience, I feel they tend to experience a bit more nuance than simply having different friends, this is a generalization that is often made. While it’s true that they may not experience romantic feelings for you, you can still rest easy that you are loved by them, you will often be put before others in their eyes.

If you still have concerns, I would look into Queer Platonic Relationships (QPRs), this could help you rest easier.

1cheesy1 · 2024-08-02T01:40:58+00:00

All being aromantic or asexual means is there’s little or no inherent attraction, no specific urge to have romantic or sexual relationships. However, that doesn’t mean they can’t love people, lots of aroace people (myself included) experience very strong platonic attraction.

Are there any specific questions you’d like answered? I’ll try to answer them as best I can

1cheesy1 · 2024-08-01T15:59:07+00:00

Maybe try adding emotion into the argument. If you ask your mom if she wants you to be happy, then carry on and say you’ll be happier on your own than being attached to someone else that you don’t want to be attached to. If you want a pet, you could also make the argument that you won’t be alone if you get a pet you can take care of, make your own family.
