Y’all. It’s 2022. I don’t need ace and aro discourse on my dash. Asexual can be used as an umbrella term for those on the spectrum. Same goes for aromantic. If you are questioning, identify as such if you want! Oh you’re demi? Of course you can use the flag! You’re some other label? Yeah, I’d love for you to use our flag! Don’t gatekeep our own community. Aromantic/asexual can define anyone who doesn’t experience romance/sex the same way allos do.

You know, sometimes I think that I am, in fact, broken. Because how come I long to be loved like those beautiful poetries and romances I read, like, desperately... At the same time that I'm unable to return it? I've searched for it on multiple people, but I give up when I realize how selfish I'm being when I couldn't feel something towards them. I just loved the idea of love and being loved, not them. Then the only things that I have left is art and the consolation that "at least I have my best friend, my family", but they're finding this type love themselves and building their families. I try to get comfort on the fact that "as a single person with no partner and kids I will have more freedom and money", but idk... Sometimes I just wish I had someone to hold me, to kiss my face and say beautiful words to me. And "AroAce" is far away from being a known expression in my country, imagine "queer platonic"... Sorry for the long self pity rant. I'm just incredible sad these days.

Greycupio
Request by reddit user FruitfulMoon
Can be spelled greycupio/graycupio. This flag/term is for those who consider themselves cupiosexual/-romantic in a 'gray' way, or those who identify as graysexual/-romantic and cupiosexual/-romantic, or pretty much anyone who identifies both with gray- and cupio- labels!
[id: a flag of equally sized horizontal colored stripes. The top two stripes are both light gray, though the outermost stripe is slightly more pale. Under the gray stripes there's a white stripe, then a desaturated blueish periwinkle, then a light coral, then an even paler coral, then a light pink. There's another white stripe under the middle colored stripes, then two more gray stripes at the bottom of the flag, with the slightly darker pale gray under the white, and the slightly lighter one on the bottom of the flag]

(tw for very romantic discussions)
i asked my boyfriend if it bothered him when i talked about being arospec. we've been dating for about 5 years now, he's known i was arospec since before we started dating, as of rn i believe he identifies as 100% allo, and i fully intend on marrying him someday. so i worry that when i talk about being arospec - when i use aroace as a blanket term (because i'm 100% ace and somewhere on the greyro spectrum) or call my favourite characters arospec or whatever - i worry that he'll think it means i don't love him, that he'll think our relationship means less than it does.
i expressed this worry to him. he said "baby, i wouldn't care if one day you realised you were 100% aro. you'd still be my baby."
...have i mentioned i'm going to marry this man? because i'm going to marry this man. he knows exactly what to say to make me melt. i've never romantically loved another person so strongly in my entire life
