Guest Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I am a girl. I get little to no attraction to almost all people, so most say I'm aromatic. I have never gotten any sex drive towards anyone. When I do eventually get feelings for someone, it is very emotional and not physical. The feelings that I have had for only two people in my life were very very strong. One I hardly hung out with but was friends with, the other I went to school with all middle school. One is another girl, and the other is a boy. The girl I don't hang out with or talk to much, but every time I used to see her face, my heart would skip a beat. Most say I'm a bisexual aromantic, but I'm not totally sure yet. If you have any opinions on what I am, I would be glad to here. Link to post Share on other sites
200 Ponies Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Just from what you typed up here, it sounds like you might be biromantic asexual. Of course, only you can know that for sure. It does sound like you have the capacity to like people romantically (or at least queer-platonically). When you were around these people, did you ever fantasize about dating them, cuddling with them, kissing them, etc.? If so, that was probably romantic attraction. If not, you may just really like being around them! Another way to tell is to go on a date with a person you think you might like. It'll be obvious very quickly whether you like them as a friend or as a romantic partner, if you have trouble telling (like me lol). I also recommend checking out these resources to see if they can help you: http://www.asexuality.org/?q=general.html#ex10 - Romantic orientations http://www.asexuality.org/en/topic/76092-romantic-and-aromantic-lexicon-and-faq/ - Helpful thread with various romantic labels and their definitions http://wiki.asexuality.org/Biromantic - Definition of biromantic Link to post Share on other sites
TeamYellowUmbrella Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 None of us are in any position to say exactly what you are, but I could say look into demiromantic and grayromantic. Demi is that you only want a romantic relationship after you have experienced an emotional bond. Gray is a general term that is for a person who falls between aromantic and romantic, and have many types of it to describe specifics that grays under that type feel.

Thank you for your opinion, I much agree with most of what you said and it was very helpful, I have considered your suggestion, and may try to understand a little further in whom and why I like them.
