Since when are batteries conscious..?

I'm eternally confused by people who can't seem to understand how being aspec works. Like, heterosexual man that just asked me out, do you want to enter into a romantic and sexual relationship with everyone you meet? No? So you do understand how it feels to Not be attracted to some (or even most) people. Just take that feeling of not being attracted to Joe from the Gas Station and imagine that you felt that way about everyone. It's very simple

ultimately the problem is that it’s always phrased “aro people can still be in romantic relationships” and not “aros in romantic relationships are still aro”. and if you don’t get that then i can’t help you any further

god tumblr's aroace community is obsessed with platonic ideals of love and intimacy to the point it can be super alienating for someone who does not vibe with that model either. if you are aroace and do not experience yearning, the need for a qpr relationship, or enjoy fanfiction or media based around intimacy and comfort… you're still valid. you're not broken or weird. i've been like this forever and it has not negatively impacted my quality of life. you will be okay, and you will be happy and thrive.

No I’m not attracted to you. Quit your evil putting your finger under my chin to make me look up at you. I know I’m your nemesis and all but we really need to set some boundaries when you’ve got me tied up like this.

No look I get it. You’ve got your evil plan, you’ve gotta get me out of the way but you also want to see me suffer as I watch the world burn, I know. But like, I’m not into this. Sexually or otherwise. Wait, you thought I was doing this because I liked you? I’m trying to stop you from using a death laser. No I don’t think death lasers are sexy what on earth are you talking about

Wait. That’s why you dress like that? I thought that armor was impractical. No I don’t find our relationship to be homoerotic I find it to be tedious. Look, man. We all keep trying to get you into therapy. No I’m not kink shaming you I’m saying you’ve completely misinterpreted this relationship. I actually do think you should answer for your war crimes. Yes, really. No you’re the one not listening to me in this situation. Yes that is the alarm the others will have cut all your wires and called in the fbi by now.

What do you mean you thought we had something special? I have other enemies. You’re not the only one. No I’m not doing kinky things with them either I blow up their nefarious devices. Speaking of which, you might want to move like… ten feet to your right.

The henchmen in the tags who have been assuring the villain since the beginning that “of course he likes you back, why else would he keep coming to destroy your death lasers”

The henchmen have been reading too many romance novels.

Awfully defensive are we? I think the henchmen are onto something.

You know I didn’t intend for this character I made up to be aromantic but this whole post has turned into being arospec at a family reunion simulator

Reblog if you don't have a girlfriend or boyfriend.

1.7 million ppl are single

2.3 million people are single

I don’ need either! Romance’s overrated anyway!!!

People in romantic relationships are so weird to me because one day it's all "I have the best gf/bf in the world!" then they break up a week later

reblogged it once but I’m back for seconds like asexuals for garlic bread

(I know, I know It’s not y'know, au stuff. Just wanted to let you know that hate towards asexuals will not be tollerated in the asks.)

Reblog if you support asexuals AND aromantics and everything between.

I would be such a hypocrite not to

^THIS

I would be a hypocrite if I didn’t support my fellow arospec and aspec peeps.

Im gay but I’m also ace
