Finding a label that fits you can be quite difficult, especially if you fall somewhere in the middle of a spectrum - that’s why I usually use “aro-spec” or “greyro” instead of more specific labels. If you feel like those labels don’t quite fit or you simply prefer something more specific, that’s just as fine - it might just take a bit longer to find the right one. Just remember that there’s no deadline to self-discovery. You’re just as valid whether you find your label at 15, 25 or 50 - and it’s also perfecty okay to identify as “aro-spec” (or any other label) for a while and change it later. Labels should help people to describe themselves, not force everyone into neat little boxes. If a label describes the way you feel right now, you can use it, even if your feelings might change at some point in the future.
