#i've legit seen someone getting all teary eyed on a fellow aromantic writer's story where they did write a romantic relationship

... gotta love the amatanormativity of co-opting awareness months for something so fucking baked into every fucking facet of society I can't take two steps without it being shoved in my face, all while I'm considered broken or 'just haven't found the right person yet' or incapable of love entirely because the type touted as so fucking superior all the time ("Oh I was hoping we could be more than friends"/"Oh no they friend-zoned you"/etc etc) is the only type focused on 9/10 in way too much of society (anything challenging this simply for focus on familial love is lauded as so fucking groundbreaking and like, WHY THOUGH? WHY IS THIS GROUNDBREAKING??) and people won't fucking shut up about it or keep expecting me to participate or erasing my existence in anything and everything saturated in obsession with romantic love or-

Ros learn you're not suddenly oppressed and need to re-assert your 'default correctness' or think people are forgetting the oh so fucking important romantic love type because we spend a whole 10fucking% of our time talking about things that actually fucking need awareness months challenge.

(Don't bother commenting if you don't understand what I'm talking about or somehow think I think romantic people shouldn't be allowed to have and show what they like. Use your brain and think about what's actually being said and go find people who have patiently explained this in more detail if you don't get why this pisses me off so much and what it is I'm talking about here.)
