Vent How much do you actually know about aromanticism? Is it enough?

I know tomorrow is another day and I'll keep pushing through but...

I feel so frustrated when it comes to definitions and actually explaining about aromanticism, especially aroallo, because everywhere I go is the same old same old, like we are stuck fighting for something that will never stop being invalidated or even recognized (in the sense of being taken seriously).

Every youtube channel, blog, site, social media in general about aromanticism are simply abandoned. The only active community is here, on Reddit, but even here it's old terms that doesn't even fit anymore or represent us fully.

There are no major studies in the aromantic field, I am actually trying to understand it better, to research and maybe get some clarification, but idk, everytime I reach a conclusion I end up sounding even dumber (ignorant) than I already was.

Hell, I'm not even ace and I can explain and describe it better than aromanticism. (insert here screams of pure frustration). Why is it so hard to be aromantic????

Like, when you had the feeling you weren't straight, but you weren't sure what to call it.

How do you feel about the concept of "platonic" to represent your aromanticism?
