#romance adverse

[asphyxiatedredherring]

Hey, just so you know, it's ok for your feelings to fluctuate. It's ok to be sex or romance repulsed one day and not the next. It's ok to be indifferent one day and favorable the next. It's ok it you think you're sex repulsed and then realize maybe you're sex adverse. It's ok to be romance indifferent one moment and adverse the next. It's ok. Your experiences are valid.

im definitely somewhere between romance adverse and romance repulsed, at least as of recent

i dont mind aesthetic romance like from books or shows or stuff. thats all fictional, so it clearly cant hurt me. i actually used to really like it. but when it comes to the people around me..? i cant do that. i actively feel sick to my stomach whenever i think about someone liking me, or even someone liking some one else. romance in real life literally hurts my soul

ik i complain about romance a lot but tbh it's more that im frustrated with amatonormativity rather than romance.

Like yeah, sometimes i find myself being romance repulsed but if im honest I'm more adverse or neutral to the whole idea. I only really find myself being repulsed when it's taking over a space (ex: fandoms who only focus on shipping)

HQ Antiromantic and Antisexual Flag Remakes

An Aro-spec Romance-Negative/Repulsed/Adverse identity and an Ace-spec Sex-Negative/Repulsed/Adverse identity.

Made because I was doing a request and realized that these flags had some weird scanlines on some of the stripes

The two stripes before last one also had some major contrast issues for me as a half-blind person so I redid the color on the 2nd to last to be less similar while still trying to keep the original gradient

Flags were originally made by @beyond-mogai-pride-flags [ LINK ]

Should both be 5000 x 3000

Me having crushes on fictional characters while also being uncomfortable with the idea of romantic relationships is literally so mean of my brain to do

the fact that Astarion will leave you after you insist on having sex while he's trying to have a real, intimate conversation and connection with you is just Correct

see the way i’m gonna cope with people misinterpreting my non-ship art as ship content from now on is telling myself yes i ALSO ship it. i ship them as friends. buddies. platonic. queerplatonic. clearly that’s what other people think. yes. i agree, stranger. my post IS about a ship, thank you very much (deranged) (insane) (projecting my aro ass so hard)

Recently discovered that there are people that ship dbhks ONLY within fanon, which is so wild to me because I personally think that so much of their appeal is within their canon!

I recently started rewatching Ed Edd n Eddy with friends and I’m interested in what kind of funny fanart people have made. But I’m a little scared to browse the Tumblr tags. Can you guys in the trenches tell me what it’s actually like?

i got sad thinking about it, i wish Josh also had tidbits of closeness towards Markus the way North and Simon had, he was just as dedicated not only towards the cause but Markus himself as them but i dont recall seeing any ~little moment~ and his permanent death scene is kinda miserable/weirdly shot? idk he couldve had just a little extra of a pat at the back or something. im not sure what the word for what im talking about is rn but like just an exchange slightly removed from 'what to do/not do'

I've not been posting much lately because I have like nothing to say. I still adore my f/os tho. Friends included.

isn't there a setting you can turn off in creative-a-sim that makes them not interested in romance? or a trait

Yeah, but it doesn't let you edit that after you've made the sim for all i'm aware :(

[wizardofgoodfortune]

does anyone know if MonstrousRegiment on ao3 has a tumblr or twitter? i kinda wanna sit in their brain for a lil while.
