#aromantic #asexual #aspec #neon's void #istg ppl just assume we wake up and decide we are aspec #like NO figuring that shit was one of the hardest and scariest parts of my life #it took months for me to get to a place I was even willing to consider the possibility #and months after that to do any serious research into what they really mean #and months after that to start using the labels #(not to say that if you just wake up and know you aren't valid just that that is not my personal experience...#...and the invalidation based on that concept mostly rolls off me because of how intensely I questioned)
