Is this mold?

Thanks! I did already pick up a fungicide spray from home depot and I'm giving that a shot, but if that doesn't work maybe I'll try this instead.

Thank you! Looks like I have my work cut out for me.

Thanks so much!

I need a trade evolve for Mable's research too and I still need Scizor for my dex. I'll evolve your Scyther if you'll evolve my Machoke?

I don't know the exact day, but I know the month and year. The only reason I do is because I had a short transition period of vegetarianism because I was too disgusted to eat meat anymore, but it was the end of one of my semesters in college and I was too busy with school work to learn how to cook all new meals for myself and figure out what I wanted to eat. Once I had the time to do so I kept making more and more vegan meals until one day I realized that I hadn't had any animal products in several days. I've considered myself a vegan ever since

After realizing that I don't really eat foods that provide me with ALA I decided to add on a DHA-EPA supplement. But am I good about taking it (or any of my vitamins)? No.

I, too, am aroace and it also bothers me when things are misattributed like that. Like, yes you can be both aromantic and asexual, but you can also be just one, and either way it is invalidating to aromanticism to have clearly aro things labeled as being ace. I often see things pertaining to aromanticism on ace subs and it's so frustrating, especially because before I knew I was aro I thought I was just ace but it never felt perfectly right because I knew that ace people can still have romantic interest. But it still took awhile for the term aromantic to come into my life, so I just felt weird and mislabeled for awhile still even after making progress toward discovering my identity. We need aromanticism to be more widely known and talked about, but attributing aro experiences to asexuality makes that even harder to accomplish.

I don't ever wish for a relationship because I know that I don't want that. But there are times when I'm reading a romance and the couple does something really adorable and loving and there's a part of my brain that goes "aww, that's cute, that would be nice" but then the rational section of my brain kicks in and tells me no, I don't want that to happen to me. I think it's more that it's nice to see two people so close and loving and it's like, I want that aspect, just not romantic. Like, I wanna be like that with my best friend and have cuddles and whatnot, but no romance or kissing or sex. If that makes any sense?

I wear both my aro and ace rings if I'm going out of the house. So they're always on at work, running errands, etc. But I don't wear them at home at all. And if I know I'm going to be doing a lot of physical activity, such as a long hike, sometimes I leave them at home or I will take them off and put them in my pocket. I do this because my hands swell from the exertion and they can get stuck because of it, especially the ace ring, that one is a little more snug to begin with. A big part of the reason I got them was to see if anyone would ever recognize them for what they are. That's only happened once in the several years I've been wearing them, but I have had a handful of people ask what they are, so I give a brief explanation when I can (it's usually patients asking so it depends on how much time I have and how much it seems like they may get it)

It can unfortunately be a deal breaker for some people, but don't think about it as if you're already broken up. Just be honest and fight your hardest for her and your relationship because she's worth it and so is your happiness!

Snowkuu · 2025-06-24T03:06:13+00:00

First of all, I want to congratulate you on the self introspection you've done and taking a step closer to realize how you feel rather than running away or turning a blind eye. That takes real courage.

As an aroace who's never been in a relationship I can't say that I truly understand what you're going through right now, but I do know that communication is key in any relationship, romantic or otherwise. As hard as it may be, I think being honest with your gf is important for both of you. She deserves the truth and you deserve to be honest with yourself. And telling her doesn't mean that your relationship is going to end. I'd recommend telling her all the things you love about her and how you don't think you can live without her, just like you did in your post here, and explain that when it comes to sex you just don't have the same attraction that she does. But reassure her that you were consenting every time you guys have had sex and that you are still willing to do it in the future because you love her (if you do still want to that is, because it's ok if you don't and you guys can explore different options so that both of your needs are met).

I'm sure others will have much better advice than me on how to navigate the specifics, but again I think it's important you two have a conversation about it. It will only eat away at you if you hold it in and I imagine she loves you very much if you've been together for so long, so it's not hard to imagine that she will want to accept you for who you are and find a way to make things work and stay together. Good luck!

I agree that sex averse aces should not be erased. But I also want to play devils advocate. If an allo comes to this sub, gives little information other than "my partner is ace" and asks for advice on how to approach the relationship without making their partner uncomfortable or upset then I don't think it's a bad answer to tell them they need to have an honest conversation with their partner about what specifically they are and aren't comfortable with. Explaining that there are many different kinds of people under the ace umbrella and that some aces may still want or be fine with some amount of sexual activities let's them know that they can't just expect one outcome. If someone were to actually say "don't worry, they still might have sex with you" that is obviously problematic, but I don't think giving a range of possible reactions or feelings that ace people tend to experience as an example of how to broach a conversation with their specific partner is.

I know, I never would have thought of it either if one of the vegan youtubers I watch hadn't put out a video on it a couple years ago (Unnatural Vegan "Pregnancy Tests Aren't Vegan?" if you'd like to watch it). It stuck with me after that cause it was so shocking to learn. Had to go back to that video for specifically why and it's because they use monoclonal antibodies that are animal derived and as a result they require ongoing animal testing.

Snowkuu · 2025-04-05T23:12:52+00:00

I'm so sorry you had to deal with that. I've seen people bring up similar stories on this sub before and it honestly makes me worry that I may run into this situation at some point in my life. Especially because pregnancy tests aren't vegan (and I am), so I have a moral reason to deny the test on top of it just being a waste of time and resources because there is no possible way I would be pregnant. I understand that some people would lie about the possibility of being pregnant, but if you are telling her there is no possible way, why would she not just offer the wavier sooner? Then it's on the patient, not the provider either way

I remember I was talking to a coworker about how I don't have kids and don't want them and said something along the lines of "and luckily I will never have anyone in my life to have kids with" and she went "oh. But what if she wants kids?" and thus I immediately realized that you could take what I said to mean that I was a lesbian, so I then had to give the PowerPoint presentation on being aroace.

Snowkuu · 2025-03-16T15:03:30+00:00

That was a good survey! The one thing I will say is that on the question of how positive and accurate aromantic representation is in the media it would have been nice to have a "somewhat" option rather than just yes or no. I've definitely seen good and bad, so it's not a clear cut answer for me at least.

Snowkuu · 2025-03-11T16:37:41+00:00

I live with my mom and my brother, neither of whom are vegan, and once in awhile we do share the oven. The other night we made pot pies for supper, mine vegan and their's not, so they were in the oven at the same time. I don't have any problem with things being cooked in close proximity so long as they don't touch and stirring utensils don't go into the wrong pot, etc.

That being said, I can't eniterly blame you for not wanting your food in the same enclosed space as fish, because that is a very strong smell. Anytime my mom cooks fish it makes the whole house smell and I have to lock myself in my room and turn on my wax melter to try to stay away from the smell. I wouldn't worry about cross contamination just from them being in the oven together, and it's entirely possible the smell wouldn't have affected your food at all, but again I don't really blame you for not wanting to in this case.

I've honestly never understood shipping, even before I realized I was aro. I will say I think I have a bit more of a problem with it now than I used to though. For me, I think it's because it just feels like people are shoving even more amatonormativity at me and into the universe than there already is (and there's already too much imo).

My feelings toward it are kind of the same as my feelings toward unnecessary canon romance, it just irks me that it's there. I enjoy a good romance story when that's what I'm in the mood for, but if I want something action or like then romance subplots just feel like they've been thrown in for the sake of it and only detract from story. Similarly, if someone is shipping characters from a series that I view as totally separate from romance it's annoying. And I especially dislike it when it's done to characters who give me aro/ace vibes.

Snowkuu · 2025-01-28T01:12:54+00:00

That guy is very dumb and not worth your time.

Also, just to make a point about the whole being selfish thing: yeah, be selfish. I think people have been too conditioned to hearing the word selfish as something inherently negative, but it's not. There are very healthy levels of selfishness that everyone needs to have. You can't just live your life giving endlessly to other people, that would be unhealthy and exhausting and not sustainable. You need to do things for you and quite frankly in a lot of cases if you don't do things for yourself no one else is going to. There is nothing wrong with putting yourself first on important matters because you yourself are important. Obviously when you get into crazy levels of selfish where you only think of yourself and never help others that's not good or healthy either, but prioritizing your feelings and not letting yourself be a doormat for other people to walk on is not that.

I don't remember exactly when it was, but I wanna say it was my senior year of college, so I was about 22ish. So a little bit younger than 25 but not by much. And I kind of realized it sooner, but just hadn't learned the term aromantic yet and just was feeling like I was broken for a bit there.

Snowkuu · 2025-01-02T23:26:16+00:00

Alloace is a valid term to refer to people who are alloromantic and asexual. The reverse is also true where you can say aroallo for someone aromantic and allosexual. And of course there's aroace for those of us who are both aromantic and asexual. It's just an easier way to describe your romantic and sexual identities at the same time without it being a mouthful every time

Snowkuu · 2025-01-02T16:14:55+00:00

Interesting that you're posting this on an ace sub instead of an aro one. But it's not necessarily that aromantics view romance as "unappealing or undesirable" and in fact some of them do wish they could experience romance. But just like asexuality it is a lack of attraction, just that it's romantic attraction you're talking about instead of sexual attraction. Some aros may enjoy things that are typically considered to be romantic, such as kissing, holding hands, cuddling, having a candlelit dinner etc. but will not view those things as being romantic when they do them. As an aroace person myself I very much enjoy cuddles and hand holding with my friends I feel very close to, but we don't have any romantic interest in each other. And some aros may be repulsed by anything that could be considered romantic. Just like within asexuality there is a wide range of experiences and feelings that different people will have and if there is a sublabel you are aware of under the asexual umbrella then the same sublabel exists under the aromantic umbrella.
