im aro as fUCK YO BUT LIKE CAN I PLEASE HAVE A QPR THO CUZ I DO BE LONELY AHAHAHHAH
I hate the fact that I’m expected to understand why people want/like/enjoy/are happy because/are sad because they can’t get romance. I hate the fact that I’m expected to understand why the happy couple is happy just because they’re romantic, and I’m supposed to immediately connect with the fact of whatever the hell alloros associate romance with. That I’m expected to be able to understand and sympathise with people being sad about not having romance, because I’m supposed to understand what a (supposed, apparent) “tragedy” it is to not have romance when you’re alloro, even tho I’m aro and I don’t understand. I hate that when I see romance in media, advertising, artwork, or people’s lives even that I’m expected to just understand it. I don’t. I hate the expectation to experience something I don’t: an understanding of romance/alloros. Because, regardless of if I could potentially learn to understand, the fact is I’m coming from a place where I don’t, and yet I’m expected to already.
