Demiromantic Zack... i think when he's younger, he has a tendency to go on a date with anyone who asks him out because he thinks he's supposed to, and mixes up his feelings of being flattered with feelings of reciprocation.

Relationships where one party has been put on a pedestal are not healthy. Relationships where A only likes B because B is what A wishes they could be are not healthy. I don't just not ship it, I am staunchly opposed to the canon version of NaruHina because it wants you to forget the only reason it exists is because Hinata never really healed.
It's not unrealistic for Hinata to become obsessed with Naruto. Even him being her whole motivation is not in itself "bad writing". That shit happens. Abused and hopeless kids do that. The problem is that she never realizes that was not healthy or ok. The problem is that this is portrayed as sweet and romantic even while her obsession escalates to stalking. That isn't cute, that's concerning.
They don't have to not end up together. It would be fucking fantastic if she reached her goals and fell out of love after realizing how childish and unhealthy her "crush" was, and then she could fall in love with him all over again for real this time. To fall in love with the real Naruto and not the white knight version of him that lived in her head for fifteen years. But we didn't get that.
Fuck Naruto: The Last. Fuck making Hinata the princess in the tower. Fuck this stupid incorrect scarf analogy. Fuck the bubbles. Fuck bombarding someone with every single positive memory they've ever had of a person at once just to shoehorn them into love with someone.
If you have to use magic to get two people together because you can't think of even one singular way for them to naturally fall in love, DON'T.

My sibling is watching DS9 for the first time, just got to If Wishes Were Horses, and has the best headcanon for why Julian's imagination creates creepy, sexualized Jadzia. Also my sibling thinks Julian gives off aromantic vibes so keep that in mind for context.
Creepy imagination Jadzia isn't Julian's fantasy - she's an intrusive thought. Like the ones aromantic and asexual people tend to have due to all the pressure to be 'normal' - we make up crushes, we fear being forced into romantic and sexual situations, which is exactly what's happening to Julian in this episode. He keeps trying to get imaginary Jadzia to go away and she just won't - and let me tell you as an aroace myself that is an experience straight out of my nightmares. My sibling (also aroace) even confesses to having had intrusive thoughts similar to this when they were younger - so yes this is absolutely a real and realistic aro experience.

Love that after I’ve taken a long time coming to terms with the fact that no matter how much I wish I wasn’t I am probably aro after talking to many alloromantic people and finding out there’s as much disconnect there as with sexual attraction, my friend tries to convince me I’m not and my version of a crush (possibly a squish) is still a crush because that’s how she is with it
The amount of amatonormativity needed to say to your friend who claims to be aro that they’re not and that’s how plenty of other people feel instead of realizing you’re probably also aro-spec. Telling me all of my “crushes” where I just decide someone is cool enough to hang out with and good looking enough that I could see them every day that I want them to stay and keep talking/playing games/watching movies with me is a romantic crush instead of thinking for a moment ‘Wait, is there supposed to be more than that?’
Because there is “supposed” to be more. There’s supposed to be longing/pining. I’ve had many friends and close family members who are allo (most alloallo, one alloace) I’ve talked to and before any of them started feeling sexual attraction they had crushes. Many had their first crush was before 4th grade where they wanted to hold hands, sit next to them in class, were desperate for their attention, and drew pictures of them. My friend that’s ace is demi-ro and noticed that switch where he didn’t just want to just be friends anymore with his one crush
I do a lot of romantic things with friends (cuddling, making fancy dinner, giving flowers or cards on Valentine’s Day, flirting of both the romantic and sexual kind) but none of it is with a specific friend. It’s just once you reach the level of being my friend I do that because that’s how I enjoy showing appreciation and that your one of the handful of people in the world I don’t want to die (likely because my parents have a very platonic marriage). If I had real crushes I’d make a special one for ____ or be trying to impress ____ but it’s none of that
I’m super romance favorable. Trust me, I’ve tried denying that I don’t feel romantic attraction. I’m not going to ask the boy out because even though he seems to like me he’s said he’s straight, recently. I don’t want to get in a relationship where a person is expecting romantic and sexual attraction in return from me and I can’t provide on either one. Even if I’m favorable and indifferent it would be friends with benefits that live together from my head. I’d be cool with that but I don’t think he would be
