#internalised aphobia

god seeing people afraid to id as ace/aro because “what if it is just a phase? what if it is just hormones? what if it is just mental illness? what if I do find "the right person?”“ makes me so righteously angry because I promise you, I promiseno one in the community is going to revoke your aspec card on account of hypotheticals. if someone told you that then the stupid motherfucker lied to you. you do not look at water and go "well I’m not sure if I should drink this, because if the temperature drops below zero, it’ll turn to ice.” relax. let yourself just be. drink the water if you’re thirsty. because it’s water right now. doesn’t matter if it’ll be ice by tomorrow, or mist by next tuesday. it’s water and you can drink it if you want to.
