I'm currently identifying as bisexual, but I really don't like using that term. It isn't like that term is bad per se, it is just that I really don't like the idea of being into anyone. I thought I had feelings to people considering that I am noticing how attractive men are and how apparently I have "crushes" towards women, but the thought about being into someone freaks me out. Like I don't really want to see anybody in that kind of light. The act of doing so feels icky to me, and I experience a lot of anxiety to the point that sometimes I want to throw up. That is how bad it is.

People are just people to me. I don't wish to see anyone more than just that. I don't want to be in a non-platonic relationship with anyone and I especially don't want to do anything allosexual-wise with anyone either. I just want friends, not lovers.

Ah yeah that sounds like me alright

#

I really don’t like the idea of being into anyone. The idea of romance and sex disgusts me.

#

Eugh!

I like the idea of being aro ace the best

#

The moment I learned about it I immediately got it

Like it made more sense to me than any other type of sexuality or alloromanticism.
