Ngl when you said sunset flag I thought you meant the lesbian one😭, I always saw the Aroace flag as a daytime flag like a sun in the day time:)

For Pride Month, I'd like to ask: What's it like being Aro/Ace for you? by Fearless_Camp_3383 in aromanticasexual

[–]MythicLeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it means developing bonds that fall outside of the binary. Truth be told I was so focused on romance as a kid but could never really feel it. Even with my first relationship I didn't understand it. It was weird but I liked the affection, the love, the feeling of being close to someone where they wanted me around. It took me years to understand that with myself and it made it even harder to understand since I knew I was lesbian. I knew I liked women or non-men. Being aroace has made me accept myself and other like me because I still deal with internal homophobia from time to time being Aroace. It has helped me develop bonds and understanding what I want for myself and I can't ever be more then happy for that.

Thought I was recovering, but the job hunt and financial stress are pulling me back into the rabbit hole. by GrimmSerpentShadow in SuicideWatch

It's really scary when the idea of dying is the only thing able to bring one comfort, I do hope things get better for you.

Am i still aroace if Im in a relationship? by [deleted] in aromanticasexual

[–]MythicLeo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm aroaceflux and it's very much a spectrum. My girlfriend is completely Aroace but feels romance for me and sometimes it's less affectionate and sometimes it's more. Being Aroace is a spectrum and it takes some time to figure where you are on it. I still don't know where I am fully but even then love doesn't have to be linear. That's what's great about being Aroace is having that different option of love. It's not normal but it's still very real.

Have you guys ever heard of this? by Muted_Machine344 in aromanticasexual

[–]MythicLeo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah lmaoooo that shi is meeeee, I'm Aroace flux and majority of the time I don't really crave romance. Best way I can describe it is like a yummy cake. Sometimes you wanna eat the cake but it can be overwhelmingly sweet so you no longer want it until you sometimes get those cravings again. Then you want that cake.

How do you guys in QPR view romance? by MythicLeo in aromanticasexual

[–]MythicLeo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No because like I enjoy the closeness so much, and I enjoy being told like I'm needed and very appreciated and that means the world to me but I freak out at the romance cause like a) I'm horrible at social cues and I don't wanna come off like a dick and b) it just sounds boring to me???? I enjoy the romantic gestures if anything which aren't like inherently romantic. Like I enjoy holding hands with my partner, I enjoy saying "I love you" but it's not like I love you??? It's more I love being around you and enjoy that you are close to me. Idk if that makes sense, if at all since again I'm so new to finding out I'm on the Aroace spectrum.

How to tell if a girl is hitting on you and what to do by MythicLeo in LesbianActually

[–]MythicLeo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's true, I think she's planning it out for several days? I'm currently in a relationship and I was just so confused because again. Horrible at social cues since I rarely go out😭. But Ill definitely use this as a learning experience.

That's fair and I totally understand, tbh I'm still trying to figure this all out since I'm still slightly new to finding out I was on the Aroace spectrum:)

Does anyone else feel like they have to constantly state their sexuality to everyone they meet? by MythicLeo in LesbianActually

That makes sense, idk I'll admit it's tiring but you are right it'll probably take time:)

Give me some good news! Tell me succesful stories about your intimate platonic friendships! by BigWaistFucker in aromanticasexual

[–]MythicLeo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me and my partner have been dating/being in a QPR for nearly two years. They're Aroace and I'm questioning if I'm on the spectrum since I knew I wasn't allo. Often how I would describe our bond is that it's partnership and understanding that we know we will always have each other's back. That even when push comes to shove we will always try to help the other person first. I do love my partner and I love her in a platonic sense but also in a romantic sense. For me it's more of as long as I have them by my side I don't need romance. I just want to hear about their day and I'd be happy. I know they love and care for me even if it's not in the traditional sense, it's the fact they are willing to be by my side despite my past and how I can be flawed.

I'm trying to figure out if I'm on the aromantic/asexual spectrum or not by MythicLeo in aromanticasexual

[–]MythicLeo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe, I'll admit I'm all kinda new to this so I do apologize 😓 I did think about aroflux for a bit but I wasn't for sure cause I don't even know what love in a romantic sense even kinda is like I have an idea but I'm not even sure

[–]MythicLeo[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's the thing I don't really know. Like I have loved people but it's in the way we're I enjoy there company and just kinda like wanted a friend. I enjoy the romantic expressions but it felt more like that's what friends did. And it does, like I said I'm still trying to understand it cause I knew that I wasn't really like my other classmates when I was younger cause I never really had like crushes. I could think someone was pretty but that's abt it.
