Barty: Stop, we don’t allow homophobia here.

Sirius: You WHAT??

I can see why you feel that way about “using” someone, but is it using them? Because you can love someone and date them and not be *IN* love with them and as long as you’re all on the same page about it, that’s not using someone. You’re aware of what’s going on, they’re aware- so where’s the harm? I have a dear friend who’s an aromantic ace and he’s actually going to be getting married to his romantic ace partner and yeah, you don’t have to feel romantic attraction at all to be with someone.

Maybe this is something you could talk to a therapist about, though? Since it sounds like it’s weighing quite heavily on you. If that’s not an option for you, I’d advise focusing on self-care (here is a fantastic list of suggestions) and on things that don’t have to do with relationships for now. Because the most important relationship you’ll ever have is the one you have with yourself~
