I just want to tell everyone who's aromantic and gets squishes instead of crushes. A squish can have the same feelings as a crush, you can get nervous and get butterflies around your squish(butterflies in your stomach aren't a crush exclusive thing, I get them when I'm around extremely steep roads for instance).
There are two differentiators from a squish and a crush. The first one is what do you want with that person. Do you want to be friends with them, or do you want to be romantically involved with them? The former is a squish, the latter is a crush. The second one is that a squish usually goes away when you've become friends with that person or best friends, or whatever level of emotional intimacy you want with that person. A crush... doesn't? Or at least doesn't until you've finally reached the level of romantic involvement you want? As an aro person I'm not super familiar with crushes, please help me here.
So those are the differences, hope this helps someone.
I GET TO SEE MY SQUISH TOMORROW!!!!
💚🖤💜🖤💚🤍💜🖤💚🤍💜🖤
(I mean I see them everyday bc we go to the same school but it’s been over 24 hrs since the last time I saw her and I’m lonely now 😅)
Hi I'm a romance favorable aro and I'm too embarrassed to ask this to anyone else: but is there such thing to get a crush without feeling romantic attraction? Like I have the strong desire to be with one person in particular, and besides from feeling romance I have all of the "symptoms" of a crush but I don't know if that's possible... thoughts?
Valid as hell!! I actually get these sometimes :DD There's a couple terms for this, like alterous attraction and squishes!
please remember for all the resources these are people's personal experiences and yours can differ!
Alterous attraction is defined by AUREA as "An interest or desire for emotional closeness without necessarily being platonic and/or romantic"
"Alterous attraction" resources: here here here here here
Squish is defined by AUREA as either "The platonic equivalent of a crush", or "The equivalent of a crush for other types of attraction"
"Squish" resources: here here here here here
I also recommend taking a look through the AUREA glossary, specifically this section!
If you wanna hear some other experiences or advice, posting on forums (like arocalypse) or subreddits may be a good place to start
As for my own experience ↓
looking back, my childhood was full of squishes.

Hey,
It’s pretty late at night and you’re probably asleep right now. I can’t stop thinking about you. I know that sounds weird, but I can’t stop thinking about how safe I feel with you, but I just don’t know how to communicate that. I love seeing you smile, and it’s so strange to not be able to picture it (because you know, aphantasia and all) but knowing I could pick your smile out of thousands. You’re so kind. You’re so considerate. I wish you knew how much I love you. I wish I had the courage to tell you.
I wish you knew how beautiful you are. Your energy radiates out like sunshine on a cloudy day and it makes everything seem not so bad.
You care about people. When you are passionate, it makes me want to listen to you talk for hours.
You feel like home.
I wish I wasn’t so scared of admitting how much I care for you. I guess I’m afraid of you not feeling the same way. It’s strange to feel so strongly towards someone, but it also feels right.
I hope you sleep well and I can’t wait to see you tomorrow. I love you.

If another person makes fun of me because of my crushes only cause they are different from what people are used to I'll throw myself out of a window
