Romance is not mandatory to have a good plot!
Let's repeat it until society understand.

aromanticism will have you saying "What if I'm not aromatic? Maybe I'm just...still too young to get crushes." when people your age are literally getting married around you

Ace rings and Aro rings. What are they?
An ace ring is a black ring, usually worn on the middle finger of the right hand, that indicates you are on the asexual spectrum. An aro ring is the basically the same thing just white and worn on your left hand on the middle finger. Placement is important since other communities us rings to identify themselves. Many people on the spectrum don’t know about the rings, so it is often times a more personal symbol. Even if you never meet another ace or someone who knows about the rings, I still think it’s a nice step of personal acceptance and way to display yourself! It’s just a really neat way to embrace your ace-ness and/or aro-ness!
Some people go with plain black and plain white., but others like their rings with a little bit more to them. Some people might go out even further and get rings that are dragon-like. The meaning of this is explained in this post of mine. There are even rings out there with the ace of spades (and other suits) which the meaning of that is explained in one of my previous posts. There are also cool rings out there that are less subtle that have the aro flag colors, ace flag, colors, and the sunset aroace flag. Overall, just the normal ace ring, a black ring with embellishments, and any other ace symbols are used by people! People have all sorts of different rings that fit within the aro/ace ring vibe.
Feel free to reblog and get this info out there! ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

I've been afraid to talk about this for fear of backlash, but fuck it. Do other romance-repulsed aros recoil at even queer kisses?
Like I'm romance-repulsed and loveless, and most, if not all, romance makes me cringe or groan or gag depending on the scenario. Straight romance, queer romance, anything. Kisses gross me out, no matter what the couple looks like.
I can acknowledge queer people being allowed to kiss is good and progress, it's just... not my thing. I'm probably going to lose followers over this.
And it feels like a homophobic thought, but in reality, I'm romance-repulsed. I love queer people! Queer people are great! Queer people should be allowed to kiss!
But I'm romance-repulsed. I'll never view queer romance the way alloros do. And the internalized arophobia tells me that's wrong.

Platonic attraction is so weird because listen you and I might only be level one acquaintances but I really want to randomly speed run to get to level 50 best friends and you have absolutely no idea I’m over here stressing about how to do that in the fastest way possible after you said “thank you” when I lent you a pencil

You ever get called a slut for expressing you want to be in a committed platonic relationship that includes sex as part of the relationship?
Boy it’s fun being alloaro!
But yes I’m a slut but I’m highly exclusive one, not just any gets in this club darling

i think it’s high time society accepted that flirting isn’t inherently romantic or sexual

i think im literally just too restless (and aro) to ever have an intimate relationship with someone like,, oh you cuddled for 3 hours? sounds nice except i would randomly get the zoomies 20 minutes in and have to run around the place, i cant even sit still for 10 minutes when my cat sits on my lap i dont get how people just hold each other for ages

I think we should talk more about how being embarrassed is not necessarily a sign of romantic love
Because society makes us believe this is some sort of rule.
You can feel embarrassed in the presence of someone you admire.
You can feel embarrassed in the presence of someone you think is aesthetically pleasing without feeling other kind of attraction.
You can feel embarrassed if someone gives you an unexpected compliment.
And in many other situations.
