#(Sidenote: one of the reasons i am certain in my aro-ness is that if I were alloromantic I wouldve been in love with my Beloved)

"Friends don't look at each other like that-" I look at my friends like it's our wedding. I look at my friends as if we're starcrossed lovers. I look at my friend like we share the same soul. I look at my friends like they're my husband that I've been waiting for for 20 years and turned down every suitor for. I look t my friends in ways that would make a romance appaled 7 year old turn away from the TV. I look at my friends and know that they love me too. I look at my friends like Eros himself shot me that second. I look at my friends as if we fell down to hell and fought our way up together. I look at my friends like I turned down heaven to rot in hell with them. I look at my friends across the room and sigh because I'm so lucky to be alive around them. I look at my friends like they're what's keeping me alive and making life worth living. I look at my friends like we just confessed our love for each other. I look at friends as if I know that we knew each other in a past life. I look at my friends as if they're my wife that I've been away from them in 20 years and just got back to from a traumatising journey. I look at my friends like they mean the world to me because they do. I look at my friends like I could go on for days and hours and years about how much I love them.
