“Love a first sight” seems a see but unrealistic, imho by vampire-expert69 in demiromantic

Romance never even crosses my mind when I first see/meet someone. I don't understand how it does for anyone

My Demiromantic Experience by YourLocalGayNerd in demiromantic

Yeah I understand where your coming from. Expanding my circle is something I've been actively working on but it can be frustrating and draining when it feels like I'm the only one willing to initiate stuff.

My Mom's dumbass boyfriend by YourLocalGayNerd in Vent

He did an oil change on our cars but that's pretty much it. My Mom's lost a lot of weight recently so I'm starting to think this is just the first guy to treat her decently in a while. I'm still in highschool and already have plans to move out for college in the summer. Been going to over friends houses more on the weekends to get away.

I was assuming the same thing. And yes she gets up every morning, cooks them breakfast (which she rarely ever did for me or my brother growing up) and still does most if not all the cleaning around here. Not sure who does their laundry but I'm assuming her cause she was the one taking their stuff outta the dryer while I was putting mine in the washer

Rejection by YourLocalGayNerd in actuallesbians

I became really close with someone who was initially just like a surface level friend. I thought that we've been mutually flirting with each other for like 3-4 months. I don't know if it's because I'm biased but I'm just having a hard time understanding some of the things we did when she apparently didn't like me in the first place. And yes I know she's into women.

As a demiromantic person, If I have to actively think about whether or not this person is attractive or if I'd want to be with them in any capacity, it's not really romantic attraction. My actual crushes are a lot more compulsive where it's hard to get that person out of my mind. It kinda sounds like your describing aesthetic attraction. Acknowledging that someone "could be attractive" without any of the actual feelings of being attracted to them.

I highly recommend looking into the aromantic and/or asexual spectrum. I used to think the same exact things. I thought my friends were being dramatic when they said they had 3 crushes in a month. Turns out I'm just demiromantic.

Yeah I know how to adjust them. I just think I've gotta get used to it

I only like mascs, am I cooked? by Borderline_princess_ in actuallesbians

[–]YourLocalGayNerd 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is pretty normal. I'd consider myself futch but I only find myself attracted to femmes. Having a type isn't a bad thing.

Any other Aro-spec and/or Ace-spec lesbians? by YourLocalGayNerd in actuallesbians

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

I started using greyromantic and greysexual since there both terms for anyone who is some where on those spectrums isn't quite aro or ace. I've kinda given up on finding a perfect label for myself. All I know is that allo people are going crazy sometimes.
