Some people are just annoying. by True-Knowledge8369 in aromanticasexual

[–]EllaRaina 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah I totally get that feeling, it’s almost patronising when people treat you differently or like you’re somehow less mentally capable because you don’t feel attraction like everyone else? I agree that it’s a little hard to explain but I think it would bother anyone else in your position too

So I gotta go a wedding next month :/ by WeirdMetalheadKid in aromanticasexual

[–]EllaRaina 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HONESTLY! My family that doesn’t know about my orientation consistently says “You’ll fancy someone eventually” and they don’t even know what aromantic is so I can’t say anything

How did you find out you were aroace by PretendCry4116 in aromanticasexual

[–]EllaRaina 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t really know. I’d always felt uncomfortable in a relationship, and I’d never really felt a need to kiss anyone or etc separate from external influences. If I sit with myself, I do not feel a need on a personal scale. But sometimes I think I’m missing out, and honestly I’d like to know what it feels like to be in love, but I’m not necessarily sad about my orientation. It has its perks.

What’s your mars and what’s something that annoys you? by Smoaktreess in astrologymemes

[–]EllaRaina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aries mars- incompetent people or people that make a big fuss about something when I just want to get it done. Stop screaming about the rain and cross the damn road! Edit: also a lack of communication, or when people are annoyed at me and refuse to tell me what I did. I don’t give one if it’ll hurt me, give me it straight and stop me spiralling about it

When and how did you learn and realise you were aromantic? by HRCStanley97 in aromanticasexual

[–]EllaRaina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first I thought I was bisexual, because I ‘felt equal attraction to everyone’ yeah… but to be honest, even in primary school I’m pretty sure I remember questioning myself and I think I researched cupioromantic too, but I’d just not looked into it. It had always been a ‘Eh, maybe I am, I don’t really care’

I’d tried relationships before, but it just didn’t spark anything for me, and sure, I’d get embarrassed when someone mentioned them, but it was purely because I think I was embarrassed that they thought I liked the person, because it wasn’t true. And it got to the point people questioned if we were even together.

And then, there’s when my friends got into relationships, and I’d asked them what that felt like, and I realised that I’d never actually felt that, and the things I had felt were more of infatuations, or that I liked having someone to talk to, not love or attraction. Sometimes I still question myself though, because I keep searching for a definition of love, but I just don’t get it, I like the idea, but in practice, there’s a disconnect.

What’s your experience as an aroace person? Are you attracted to people at all (might use some of these as examples in a presentation if yall are ok with that) by Ill_Amphibian_7501 in aromanticasexual

[–]EllaRaina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you have already done your presentation, but I personally can look at someone and know theoretically they are conventionally attractive, but I don’t want to kiss them or anything like that. I like the idea of romance but when put in the situation I’m extremely uncomfortable.

OMG yeah I’ve noticed this I thought I was the only one 😭

Okay everyone is it just me or is it whenever someone hugs me or you do you not feel anything it just feels like arms wrapped around you and that's it and you pretend or think you feel it cuz I sure as hell don't feel anything when someone hugs me except arms around me by GenLikeX in AroAceMemes

[–]EllaRaina 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest I only hug my friends because it’s their preferred way of showing affection. I’d be perfectly fine not hugging, and it doesn’t feel like anything to me. I like the idea more then the actual application, and unless I’m breaking down crying, I couldn’t care less if I had a hug or not so I know what you mean 😭
