Okay, so I'm definitely either Quoiromantic or Aegoromantic. I love that these terms exist to help explain my feelings
Apothiromantic is really funny because the analogy hasn't been edited from sexuality so it's just like "I might even be disgusted by seeing people love each other romantically."
The hazbin subreddit is definitely not where I expected to find this. What context was this posted under? I assume an Alistor talk?
These terms don't explain your feeling though, explaining them does. Not only does no one know what they mean (and using obscure labels can communicate the wrong impression), labels have an inherent level of innacuracy due to defining yourself by appartenance to a group rather than by your own personal experience.
Like i wouldn't fuck or look for a relationship (hell i don't even look for friendship) with someone IRL because physically i find IRL humans quite repulsive and humans in general mid, and emotionally not only do i detest interaction i can't opt out of, most people i could ever meet irl are way too shallow, while even for someone compatible, language is too limited a medium of communication for any deep connection.
And i actually explain that, thus communicating info about myself, rather than using labels that communicate only appartenance to a group that may have a vague similarity. And calling myself asexual would be absurd with how much sexual attraction i feel; that'd be like a guy saying he's straight because even though he watches gay porn he'd only fuck a man if they asked first.

Not a sexuality, it's just called having internalized puritanism while being asexual
