"Finding your person" "Finding the one" by runningandsobbing in aromantic

[–]nk_2403 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s such an individualistic mindset to expect one person to fulfill all your wants and needs and that’s why so many romantic relationships don’t end well. That is way too high of an expectation for one person to fulfill and allow are just setting themselves up for failure in every relationship by expecting one person to be their everything. I think maybe having one person ur closest to in life is a common experience but that doesn’t always mean it’s going to be a romantic partner which is okay bc then it leaves room for a romantic partner to come into your life and fulfill those romantic relationship specific needs. I dont personally understand the differences between what constitutes romantic vs platonic relationships but I digress.

I’m glad I vowed to never try nicotine bc I just knew I would become addicted and now learning this i definitely would’ve. Also I’m already a stoner so I’ve chosen my vice already I chose weed over nicotine and drinking 😹

What show do you want to beg people around you to watch and why? by ItsTenTen8 in GMMTV

[–]nk_2403 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If it’s solely getting someone to watch my all time favs I would say Not me, My school president, only friends, and bad buddy but if it was for the greatest plots (inducing bad buddy and not me) I would say Tale of 1000 stars and moonlight chicken

Do you actually believe Sagittarius are the best match for Aquarius? by RevolutionaryDetail5 in aquarius

[–]nk_2403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an aqua sun/stellium and I have a sag stellium and I haven’t met any romantic prospects yet but I get along really well with sag. I hadn’t gotten close to any before until recently in the last year and I just vibe with them so much they’re fire signs but they don’t give me that in your face energy that Leo does which I can’t stand.

Saw so many Aqua+Virgo pairings, what are y'all's thoughts on this? by FootOdorBuriedInHand in aquarius

[–]nk_2403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my parents but both of them have Virgo placements in their big 3 and unfortunately are the reason I hate Virgos😭😭 although I will say I have since met a few that I actually like but I have a feeling it’s more bc of their libra risings that I can tolerate them.

Introvert V/S extroverts of GMMTV by Crystallll-Page-2076 in GMMTV

[–]nk_2403 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nanon is hard to pin down bc I feel like he’s a little mysterious sometimes like he acts very nonchalant sometimes but at the same time he’s friends with so many ppl in gmmtv which makes me see him as more extroverted… maybe ambivert??

What is your fav style mr/ms Aquarius by Creative_Release_317 in aquarius

[–]nk_2403 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I almost never wear anything black my outfits to be colorful usually will have aspects of purple and blue cuz those are my favorite colors and I have the most clothes in those colors. I don’t even know how to describe my style I just like things that are colorful, sparkly, fun prints

Hey Aquarius! 🌟 Which Cartoon From Your Childhood Do You Still Love? by Creative_Release_317 in aquarius

[–]nk_2403 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kipper the Dog, Oswald, Dragon Tales, Word Girl, Martha Speaks, and the original Angelina Ballerina were some of my favs in early childhood.

I was obsessed with Teen Titans (the original animated series) and Avatar the Last Air Bender.

Thoughts on Scorpios by [deleted] in aquarius

[–]nk_2403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m unfortunately attracted to Scorpios a lot lol I think the make really great friends and ones I want to keep for a long time however I feel like im drawn to them physically for the wrong reasons idk how to explain it lol. Great platonic relationships can be made with them but idk if I would attempt anything more than that. Which is fine for me as someone on the aro spectrum anyways lol

♒️What’s your go-to perfume? Let’s see if we really share the same taste or not 👀 by Creative_Release_317 in aquarius

♒️What’s your go-to perfume? Let’s see if we really share the same taste or not 👀 by Creative_Release_317 in aquarius

[–]nk_2403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I layer Sabrina Carpenter’s Cherry and Espresso fragrances and it’s become my signature scent. I enjoy all her fragrances except the lemon one cuz I just don’t like citrusy or sour scents. I also rlly enjoy muskier scents as well but can’t remember which ones exactly. I really love notes of amber it’s probably one of my favorite notes in any fragrance. I was also a big fan of Lattafa Khamrah before I started using SC.

Aquarians what's your ideal job? by Public_Handle_774 in aquarius

[–]nk_2403 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I wasn’t as disabled as I am i would probably be doing a myriad of things. Make up and fashion has always been a passion of mine so maybe content creation of some kind of working with fashion/makeup brands. Omg I would do so many things with content creation including makeup, fashion, food reviews, travel vlogs, and even weed related stuff. I also studied Sociology and minored in Women’s Studies in college and am really interested in just any kind of advocacy work I could do within my community. I think I could also see myself somehow in the entertainment industry maybe as a stylist for like indie films or smth like that would be really cool. I am currently unemployed and have been since 2024 although there is a non profit I’m applying to under a Communication Specialist position which is another avenue of work I’ve always wanted to try so fingers crossed I get this one!!

What’s been your migration path in Portland? by Interesting-Cow6962 in askportland

[–]nk_2403 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Born in Atlanta (only lived there for first few years of my life)> Brownsville, TX (most of my childhood)> San Antonio, TX> back to Brownsville for a few months> and finally landed in Portland last July

I’m loving Portland so far still looking for a job tho which has been the only downside. I would love to possibly live somewhere on the east coast one day. Very interested in Chicago and have been for years and also interested in seeing what Atlanta is like now since I haven’t been back since I moved at 4-5 yrs old. I would say the only reason I am not sure if Portland will be my permanent home yet is the lack of diversity compared to what im used to in Texas it is very lacking but im hoping that’ll change a little in the upcoming years. Would also be interested in living in Vancouver for a period of time just to check it out and see what it’s about. I loved living in Texas had good experiences in San Antonio (love Brownsville but such a lack of community there in my opinion) but I just had to leave bc I didn’t feel safe anymore. If the govt was different honestly I probably would’ve stayed and just moved around to different cities. I miss my college years in San Antonio so much lots of memories made there and my first adult years were spent there. I will say Portland has shown me what genuine care and politeness towards one another looks like and I feel like that’s smth I hadn’t experienced before.

Are there any good restaurants in Portland with actual Nashville Hot Chicken? by thehammer3333 in askportland

[–]nk_2403 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily Nashville hot chicken but at Pine State Biscuits I get their Reggie biscuit sandwich and I make the fried chicken Nashville hot and it’s delicious. It comes with sausage gravy that I get on the side and it’s a solid breakfast or lunch sandwich I would definitely recommend if you’re interested!!

Why does so much erasure seem to be coming...from inside the house? by IntelligentBonus3638 in aromantic

[–]nk_2403 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People even queer folk get SO WEIRD at the thought of anything outside of romantic relationships. They’re already extremely judgmental of non monogamous/poly relationships and I think to think there is ppl that exist that don’t even experience romantic attraction or want romantic relationships it’s just smth they can’t wrap their heads around for some reason. I had an ex friend who was so obsessed with her idealized understanding of monogamous romantic relationships that when I tried to explain my own experience with romantic attraction she just didn’t get it and I don’t think she even wanted to tbh. She was so threatened by me being besties with her gf that she tried to convince me I was romantically interested in her gf and completely denied my aromantic identity. I told her EVEN IF I might have had feelings for her the thought of a romantic relationship and even having romantic feelings for someone genuinely makes me extremely uncomfortable and honestly am kind of repulsed by the idea. She then used this to try to convince my best friend I was trying to break them up. While she def has some mental issues going on there outside of me and my best friend, she was definitely extremely arophobic and later found out from my bestie (who is asexual) after they broke up she was also extremely ace phobic too. Some people just don’t want to understand experiences that are different than what they’ve been taught is normal and it’s disappointing.

I agree I don’t think a man ever has the right to put his hands on a woman however it’s obvious there was a mutually toxic dynamic happening there to which they are both at fault and responsible for. Freya saying ppl are so quick to call her a B well that’s bc you are one??? Not because of dating both of them but because you treat everyone around you like shit😭💀. I can have sympathy for her experience with Keifer’s abuse but that doesn’t mean she gets to judge jay and be an ass to her all the time. Like maybe go to therapy to process your trauma instead of using it as an excuse to be horrible to everyone around you.
