SecEagle Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Hey everyone, I am very confused about my romantic orientation. I have no idea anymore since I always have this doubt. Can romantic people tell me kind of what do they feel when they attract romantically? and can aromantics maybe tell me about when did they discover they were asexauls? those two could help me a lot so thx for everyone who helps ^^ Link to post Share on other sites
Jea Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I started identifing as ace when I was 18 or 19, and as aro when I was 19 or 20. I'm 20 now. I don't really feel like I would like to have a close relatioship with one person in my life, although I would like close friendships. I don't really want kissing either (well, I'm a bit curious about it, but I don't crave it). So, in short, I see my older self happy with living alone but spending time with people, sharing time with the ones I 'love', hugging maybe, but not having one relationship with one person. I hope that helps, weel free to ask questions :) Link to post Share on other sites

I feel like I should still wait. But I had a few moments which points out about being aromantic. so I am confused as hell right now. Link to post Share on other sites

If you want to identify as aro right now, then you can do so. If, say, in a few years, you find someone you feel romantic attraction towards, then you will realize that you are not aro, or not anymore. The label won't stop your heart, it's not fixed :) Link to post Share on other sites
