who up in an endless cycle of self alignment and dissolution, wondering constantly if it's worthwhile to look for (or if there even is) an achievable sense of internal stability or if that exact fluctuation is what it means to be alive, feeling they've lived a million lifetimes in the fraction of an existence they've had so far ... aha yea me neither

idk man are we absolutely sure life is a series of moments? are we SURE that i can't hold onto a feeling forever? do we NEED the passage of time?? seems like a bit of a scam...

one of my all time fave lyrics from the album

I have been thinking about "I write little poems each day inside my head, my only conclusion, I don't want to die yet" since it came out. when I heard it for the first time, I had to stop in my tracks. it verbalized something that was in my brain for a long time. the healing that I have been working towards feels, I don't know the right word, but, less isolating.

my take on shipping aromantic characters is that if you're aro you get to do whatever you want and if you're not you have to write me a three page essay 12 pt font times new roman double spaced explaining in detail why you believe entering a romantic relationship would be an interesting and worthwhile storyline for the character and how you believe their aromanticism would affect the way they experience said relationship

how to stop hating myself because of my (a)sexual and (a)romantic orientation? google search.

I know I shouldn't, but I can't stop thinking about this and beating myself up over something that isn't my fault, the lack of representation kills me, because to the rest of the world I'm just weird or lonely and to myself too (sometimes)...

can’t wait to grow up and not get married and have kids honestly 🙏

the aromantic writer urge to create stories about found family, childhood pets and life long friends

leaving romance behind, happily ever after trends

platonic soulmates connected for life,

a caring dad without a wife,

cheating and pregnancy tropes abandoned,

exploring other forms of attraction

and protagonists that aren’t hopeless romantics

well i finally decided to open up to my therapist about being aromantic and she basically pulled the “you’ll find the right person eventually” shit

romance is boring…unless of course you’re adrienette…

Nothing quite like being stared at for moving your legs when you're a wheelchair user. Why yes I am aware they move sometimes but if you want me to walk more than 2m well then that's not going to happen my dear.

love is selfless

and I'm selfish, i want so much more than anyone could give. i want it to be about me more than the other person.

i want to be obsessed over, to be wanted, to be known.

and i want all this knowing i cant give it back, knowing i dont want to give it back

love is so very selfless, and i'm not and i'm probably not even a good person, but god the things i would do to be loved by someone and be the only thing that matters to them

i was writing my feelings out about being aromantic and tell me why i ended up using the scooby doo villain catchphrase

“romance has always made me feel anxious it’s felt like some strange performance

i wanted to be liked so i put on this act and tried my hardest to convince everyone including myself

i would’ve gotten away with it too if it weren’t for someone posting about their experiences online”
