I know some people get annoyed at us for being happy to see positive representation of those feelings that seem only WE have (which, not true, lol), the downvotes everytime we mention it are quite telling. BUT I know every single Aro, specially the aroaces, feel very VERY strongly about them and are so glad that they have explicitly said this isn't romantic and MEAN IT, and even tried forcing it into a sexual relationship just to fail. Like no, you don't need to change your relationship into sexual nor romantic just to fit into what others can comprehend or to be allowed to have this person as your life partner. Fuck relationship hierarchy, fuck amatonormativity, fuck societal expectations.
