i appreciate seeing a ship like krusie whose expressions love and affection doesn’t totally consist of just typical, expected forms of affection that indicate closeness/romance. they can be seen as romantic (or adjacent) without amatonormative bias and expectations and i think that’s neat. more couples should be like krusie
"HEADS UP!" i shout as i swing the romo-aro baseball bat at my favorite character, they do not duck before they have been hit
People need to admit that "fandom discourse" over asexual and/aromantic characters was to simply express their shitty thoughts about sex favorable and romance favorable aspec people without being clocked as the people who were on the wrong side of the ace discourse.
AROSPECK !!
arospeck is a term for people who may technically be on the aromantic spectrum, but feel a disconnect from being aro(spec), do not fully identify with it, do not feel it is important to their identity, or feel a disconnect from the aro(spec) community / experience. they may feel like they are only "kind of" aro(spec).
this may be because: they are (extremely) romance-favourable. they do, or desire to, feel romantic attraction in some way – perhaps feeling that the attraction they do (or desire to) experience outweighs any lack of attraction they have. they may be in (or desire to be in) a relationship where romantic attraction is present. they may feel more alloromantic than aromantic, or connect / identify more with alloromanticism while still being aro(spec). they may be romance-obsessed, romance-focused, they may prioritise romance in their life, or feel like romance is a big or important part of their life or identity. they may not understand romantic attraction / have a complex relationship with it, but also not feel connected to the idea of lacking romantic attraction. they may be romo-aro, cupioromantic, quoiromantic, greyromantic, or any other arospec microlabel in a way where this label resonates.
this term was made with aro(specs) who feel a connection to romance / romantic attraction in mind – but can absolutely be used by anyone who feels it fits them.
name comes from the idea of having a "speck" of aromanticism in your identity. I liked how "speck" also sounds like "spec" (spectrum).

Liminal Aro
Liminal Aro
An aromantic person who doesn't neatly fit, constantly transitions or who feels in the middle between the "hard aro" and "romo aro" labels. Liminal aromantics are those who have a complicated relationship with love, attraction, romance stance and relationships (especially romance and qprs), and have experiences that doesn't fit into the pre-conceived notions of the aro community or expetiences that doesn't receive much attention (such as romance indifferent aromantics or strictly lovepunk aros). That is not to say that x or y is more privileged.
It is also for those who dislike/are against using microlabels for oneself.
I'm coining this term because my aromantic identity is pretty complex and i feel like the existent microlabels are pretty restricting and don't communicate the complexities of my identity properly. This is not a hate for those microlabels, they're rad af but i feel like the aro community is pretty divided between "hard aro" and "romo aro" which doesn't leaves that much space to discuss more grey, hard to define experiences.
I hope that with this label, more discussions about such "liminal" experiences begins to take form and create a space for aros who don't fit in and feel adrift.
I love you cupioromantics, greyromantics, demiromantics, and anyone else who's arospec and is romance favorable in some way. You are so valid and not any less aro for being romance favorable.
aros in relationships (romantic and non-romantic) are so important
aros who don't want any relationships are so important
romo aros and lovequeer aros are so important
heartless and loveless aros are so important
those that blur the line between any of these "opposites" are so important
