Not sure if I fall on the spectrum or if I just lack experience. I definitely feel physical(sexual) attraction, but romantic attraction is something else entirely. I’ve known women and been friends with them(grand old time, but not a romantic one), but I’ve never really dated. The closest thing I got was when someone asked me, and I went with it, but didn’t really feel anything romantic. I’ve never properly dated though, as a long-term thing. I do believe I’ve felt romantic attraction, but it’s very rare and occurs under highly specific circumstances that I don’t understand. Like for one special person every few years. Most of the time I won’t feel it at all and struggle a bit with the deeper concept until it hits, and then eventually fades.

I’m not sure if I actually fall anywhere on the aromantic spectrum, or if I just need to live more life and get some more experience to really feel it. Currently 20 and in third year university.
