We’re heard of bi panic or gay panic…

What would gay panic be and if y’all feel you’ve experienced it what was it? 😂

Are You Aro (Advice)?

**Hi everyone!**



Welcome to our weekly Advice post about Aromanticism! Aromantic people experience little to no romantic attraction.



**Do any of these resonate with you?**

\* You rarely (if ever) experience crushes on others.

\* You find the idea of a romantic relationship unappealing, and prefer strong platonic bonds.

\* You've been in romantic relationships but felt like you were going through the motions.

\* You've researched what crushes are "supposed" to feel like, but can't relate.



These are just a few signs you might be Aromantic. Aromanticism is a spectrum, and every person's experience is unique.



\*\*Have questions about aromanticism or your own identity?\*\* Ask away in the comments below, and we'll and your fellow Aro’s will do the best to help!

How did you explain asexuality to your parents?

For those who have come out to their family, how did you guys explain asexuality to them? I'm about to come out to my parents and I don't want to get too complicated with all the possibilities of asexuality, I just want to tell them the basics (if they ask). How did y'all do it?

Confusion on whether I'm asexual or not

Hi everyone,

I'm a questioning asexual (17F) and for a long time, I wasn't aware of asexuality at all (or much of the queer spectrum, beyond being gay/lesbian/bi). I'm pretty sure I'm queer, but about 2 years ago I started noticing how it was odd that I experienced very little romantic/sexual attraction. Although I am still a teenager, I felt like it was difficult to relate to many of the attractions that my friends were expressing. I also remember telling my friends I had crushes without fully knowing that crushes meant romantic attraction (I more so experienced it as thinking they're a very interesting person or wanting to be friends with them). Therefore, I don't think I've had "crushes" in a very traditional sense, although I've had these "crushes" on both men and women.

However, recently, I've also felt kind of a pressure to get into a relationship. It could be because of influence from my peers (my peers often talk about relationships and wanting romantic ones), and also just being surrounded by the concept of romance in general. Every time I imagine myself in a relationship, I kind of get an "ick" feeling (which gets worse when I imagine anything related to intercourse). It might also be because I view myself as kind of awkward in general, so imagining myself in those scenarios creates more awkwardness.

Also, it doesn't help that I'm from an East Asian household that doesn't even know about asexuality at all and is homophobic in general. I genuinely just wish asexuality was more widely known or acknowledged because I feel like I wouldn't have as much of trouble grappling with my potentially asexual identity.

Thanks for any insight and sorry for the long post!

For you, what is the worst pain (or fear) of being asexual?

For me, the worst pain of being asexual is that no one (except a few) understands me, but mostly no one does and it hurts me more because my parents and my sister don't want to understand what I am. There is also the fear of being alone and not finding someone who loves me just because I am asexual. Being judged and being forced to do something I don't want to do.

I think I experienced attraction for the first time in my life. Not sure though

I have always thought I’m straight because I’d probably find it easier to ‘do it’ with women, not that I have a desire to do that whatsoever and would probably find the whole ordeal very gross and awkward. But at the moment I have had some very gay thoughts about a celebrity (I will not say who). I’ve found men very charming and attractive in the past but that’s more platonic than anything else, like I’d really want to be like him or really admire him. Same with women, I will frequently find a woman very beautiful and charming but with no kind of lust there. However this is totally different and it’s fairly hard to describe, and weirdly exciting. I can’t say I’m an expert on what it means to be attracted to someone but I reckon that is it? Where you dream about them even if you don’t really know anything about their personality? And want to kiss them? I can’t really tell. I’d also consider myself more aromantic as well as fully asexual so I can’t say I know what romantic attraction feels like
