just a friendly reminder that:

  • there are aromantics that don’t like romance
  • there are aromantics that physically cannot handle romance
  • there are aromantics that suffer a toll on their mental health as a result of being romance repulsed
  • there are aromantics that genuinely feel bad about themselves because they’re romance repulsed
  • there are aromantics that hate romance but at the same time wish they could feel it
  • there are aromantics that seriously suffer from their romance repulsion, because society constantly reminds them that they need to not only feel romantic attraction, but that they have to like romance because if not they’re “not human”
  • romance repulsed aromantics get put down all the time, but they deserve so much more than that. they are beautiful. they are strong. they are worthy. they are amazing.
  • please remember that not liking romance is okay. you are okay. anyone who says otherwise can go fuck their self. be proud of who you are.

Shout Out to my Aromantics who want to be physically close to people, but live in a place where you really can’t unless you’re in a relationship. 

Shout Out to my Aromantics who want to be physically close to a friend, but can’t for one reason or another.

Shout Out to my Aromantics who don’t want to be physically close to anybody.

pros and cons to getting married to your best friend: for aros

pros: getting to have a wedding, family will stop bothering you about when you're going to meet someone, forever sleepovers, tax deductions, getting a nice place together, pooling together your book/game/movie collection, having someone to talk to in person whenever
cons: idk they'll probably steal your favorite food nothing is sacred

You don’t have to be asexual to be aromantic.

You can love romance and be aromantic.

You can want to vomit every time you see a couple and be aromantic.

You can be kinda-aromantic-kinda-not and identify as aromantic/grey-aro

Only you can define what your romantic orientation is.

This is an Aromantic Safe Space

If you need to talk, want to ask questions about aromanticism, or just need to vent, this blog is willing to listen.  This applies to any orientation on the aromantic spectrum.

It’s fine if you aren’t romance adverse; you are still aro.

It’s fine if you want a relationship; you are still aro.

It’s fine if you have felt romantic attraction to people in the past; you are still aro.

Orientations can change. You can still want relationships and like the idea of relationships. The only things that effects your orientation is wether you feel romantic attraction now! :)

To my DeviantArt Followers

I’ve created a chatroom on dA called RomanticsWorld. It’s basically a chatroom for people who recognize the differences between sexual and romantic attraction and a safe place for people to come and discuss related things or to just hang out. So, feel free to come in and hang out!

I'm sorry I've been so up and down with this blog! UPDATE: I have entered a long term relationship and am very happy with it. However, I still am of course just as grayromantic as I was before. I am still romance-repulsed when watching other people so I definitely don't participate in PDA because it grosses me and others out. This is probably the only post I will make about having a boyfriend on this blog (other than saying being in a relationship doesn't mean I'm not aro). I am still very proud of being arospec and that is not going to change. All of my posts about my relationship will stay on my main blog, so don't worry about it! I just thought I should explain this.

Anonymous asked:

i think im quoiroromantic but im getting really anxious because lately ive been seeing a lot of people on tumblr talking about lesser-known orientations and saying stuff like "oh so basically youre straight" or "haha, what even is that? thats stupid and not a real orientation" and being really negative about it and just saying im aromantic isnt accurate and i want to use a more specific word but im scared people might give me shit over it

Well it’s your choice on whether or not you come out! But just know anyone who gives you shit over it is just a shitty person. There’s no problem with you, there’s a problem with arophobes.

Shout out to the aromantics

-The aromantics who always have people saying that it’s so sad they’ll never get married

-The aromantics who are told that it’s just a phase

-The aromantics who have people telling them they just haven’t found the right person yet

-The grey aros who feel like they were faking it if/when they do find the right person

-The demiromantics who are told “that’s normal”

-The quoiromantics who don’t know if they even experience romantic attraction

-The quoi-___romantics who constantly get told they’re invalid because “if you cant tell the difference between platonic and romantic attraction then how do you know that its only ____”

-To all the lith/akoiromantics who are told that they just have attachment issues

-To the cupioromantics who are shit on by the alloromantic community for not loving people romantically and by the aromantic community for wanting a relationship anyway

-To the mentally ill aromantics who are told its just because of their mental health

-To the autistic quoiromantics who are told that they’re confused because they’re autistic

-Just… here’s to all the aromantics out there who are constantly ignored, even by supposedly inclusive blogs/posts.
