This is the stages of change model, with each circle being a part of the process of growth. You'll notice how relapse is not a failing of the model, or a set back, but an active step in continuing to grow and change. Everytime you relapse, you learn something; maybe a certain time of year is difficult for you. Maybe certain people push you back into the habit. Maybe your other coping skills/replacement habits didn't work how you wanted and you need to strengthen them, or develop new ones. Maybe it's not quite as clear cut and you need to spend the time figuring out what exactly went wrong so you can catch it next time. It doesn't matter the exact lesson, but it's part of the process.

(Also, just to be clear, please don’t ship repulsed aspec characters. Don’t put repulsed aros into a romantic relationship, don’t make repulsed aces have sex, don’t force repulsed apls into having a friend. That’s erasure, just like how shipping a lesbian with a man or a gay with a woman is erasing their queerness. Please remember we are a part of the queer community to be respected, too, and taking our rep from us doesn’t help anyone. Yes, even if it’s yaoi or yuri. Leave them alone.)

Okay so maybe this is fine

For those who don't know what a QPR is: It's everything outside of social norms, a relationship that is neither strictly platonic nor romantic. A lot of time you'll see it described as platonic partnership, a kind of platonic commitment and devotion that is supposedly not present in normal friendship(by this definition, a lot of the biggest ships would fall into this category if we look strictly at how they're depicted in canon—think spirk, johnlock, merthur, stucky, etc.), but it can look like anything: two best friends living together, or raising a kid together, friendship with a lot of physical affection, platonic kissing, a friends with benefits type of thing, anything goes. While anyone can be in a QPR, they are commonly associated with people on the asexual and/or aromantic spectrum.
