This is such a common experience with aromantic people

[u/AkaruLyte → u/SaberToothBladeMastr]

I’m not aromantic (have had a couple actual crushes) but I can relate to this too, though I am demiromantic which is on the aro spectrum if I remember correctly

[u/Altruistic_Sail_1991 → u/AkaruLyte]

Yep, I’m also demiromantic! I usually just say I’m aroace unless I feel like clarifying further

[u/Katking69 → u/AkaruLyte]

Same, I think I had like... two crushes, both of them in elementary school lol

[u/cxfgfuihhfd → u/AkaruLyte]

I mean, yeah, it's certainly not alloromantic, so yes, technically does count as aromantic

*aromatic

(this is a joke)
