Saw people talking about cringy romance/smut fanfics they wrote as teens and how embarrassed they are by it now and went huh. so many writers had that phase I wonder why I didn't. guess I just didn't find any of that stuff that interesting.

my man my guy you should've figured out the aroace thing sooner.

#I kind of liked making stories about romance sometimes but above anything they were just sort of #about connection and understanding and I'm pretty sure no one ever had even kissed #when I write about romance now it's kind of like if I were writing about parachute jumps or diving #like yeah it sounds cool but I'm pretty sure I'm never doing allthat #no joke I figured out the aro part while reading a fic and going #this is so nice and sweet :') I don't think I'll ever experience it like this <- in a genuinely relieved way #it's a little funny but also realizing that im not much into romantic love irl made me feel so much better about it #I never was but I didn't really inspect it in any way until a certain point #thought it was the default and then my siblings started dating people and I went oh. so people actually want that.#im still so insecure about saying I'm aroace #because every time I feel the need to say that im on aro spectrum specifically and not just aro.#as if it's still not the same thing with a slider slightly to the left. whatever.#honestly I also think the cringy gender role stereotypes in fics also flew past me because of the 'tism #who knows #in the yapping mood today sowwyy #when am I not #faksyan talks
