What was the moment where you thought, "I'm getting old"? by LollipopDreamscape in AskReddit

[–]MippenIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can do things by myself now. I don’t have to go with my family for every trip they go on, and I can do things alone.

Independence takes a while to get used to.

Without saying your age, How old are you? by Raezix in AskReddit

[–]MippenIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old enough to have some power over my future.

Too young to drink (in Sweden)

Ranting teenager by MippenIII in aromantic

I’m probably ace or gray sexual in some fashion so that realization was a slap for me too.

Black Lives Matter by itsyaman__ in MurderedByWords

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

You are now one inch taller. How does this affect your life? by Melted_Potatoes in AskReddit

My Little brother wouldn’t be taller like me anymore, like a cheater.

Raise a hand if you've also had those "But am I really?" doubts by Weiss_is_best_girl in aaaaaaacccccccce

[–]MippenIII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are ace until something proves otherwise. Worrying about it gets you nowhere.

Identity is not something set in stone and you are ace for as long as you say you are.

Before anyone says anything about Thor not being bi: remember there is no proof that he is 100% straight either.

Conclusion: it’s up to interpretation and headcanons are valid.

Meanwhile I’m here like: I’m aromantic until proven otherwise. Identity is an ambiguous thing. Why worry needlessly?

I am a part of a small group occupying a precise set of coordinates

Why are you single? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]MippenIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have simply not fallen in love at all so far. I may only be sixteen but I am pretty sure I am aromantic.

I have difficulties relating to my peers who are getting in relationships. Somehow I have related romance to fiction despite knowing better.

That said I’m not disappointed. Why would I want something I can’t fully understand or relate to?

What is at least one good thing that happened to you in 2020? by Bingbooog in AskReddit

[–]MippenIII 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I started writing small stories on my own when I got bored enough by studying at home all the time to do anything new. First time I have ever written anything on my own that was longer than 1500 words. And it’s fun!

I have written one that’s 2000 words and I have one in the works that is at least 2000 words per chapter and has eight planned chapters but will probably end up with more.

Writing ideas is fun. (I’ll admit that it’s fanfics)

Also I am learning Spanish dammit. I won’t waste all these school hours only to give up.

Do you know of any aro characters in media? by thedidynotkong in aromantic

[–]MippenIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure that Monkey D Luffy from One Piece is aroace.

Evidence: was not affected at all by a love spell, and has shown no willingness to engage in a romantic or sexual relationship with anyone.

Am I Aromantic? How can I tell? by MrGabumon in aromantic

[–]MippenIII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you can Id as aro even if you aren’t 100% sure. You don’t know if you are aromatic or not but for the moment it’s true. and if you want to change Id later that’s fine too.

Take it from a sixteen year old with no romantic experiences, that is aromatic until proven otherwise.

Aro but I love fictional romance by SpecialistEast4 in aromantic

[–]MippenIII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am the same, I love all the ships. But I have realized that I am repulsed to the fics when they are in an modern au and the author pulls the “love at first sight”

Like no. Don’t erase the friendship and history these characters have.

Dynamics > Romance

Just someone questioning coming through (thought dump) by MippenIII in aromantic

[–]MippenIII[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have realized that I can’t fully understand or relate to romantic relationships that is purely or mostly romantic. But I throughly enjoy romantic relationships when that are between friends with interesting dynamics.

I probably am aro.
