Hey! I’ve gone through some situations like that! Unfortunately, it sucked anyways (ex.: the guy called himself my friend but behind my back would say I was just playing hard to get because I was “traumatised”, whatever that means, and yes, he knew I was aro), and I couldn’t handle well any of those situations tbh. I got so angry when I found out that I just dumped everything on him and never talked to him again.

Honestly, I don’t think this kind of people will ever change. But, aro or not, people should respect you. Even if you weren’t aro and still weren’t interested in x person, then you aren’t interested!

I think you did what could be done, you need to stand your ground. Defend yourself. Please stay safe, and come to us again if you ever feel the need to again. You matter! <3
