    Aro ace people need more support honestly.
    I'm aro ace, and I always feel kinda lonely because I don't want to have a boyfriend or girlfriend. I mean, it doesn't really bother me, but I feel left out sometimes, y'know?

    • @inkyio
      @inkyio 4 ปีที่แล้ว +168

      Well being in love sucks and I understand your struggle but it's better to just not have romantic feelings for people. You should have some friends and be happy with them so I hope you're not as lonely if you do gain more friends or already have some that you love a lot. 🤧🤙🏼

    • @livbrooks4194
      @livbrooks4194 4 ปีที่แล้ว +128

      Hi! I have a question I was wondering if you could answer? If it’s too personal no worries tho. Anyway, I was wondering, as an aro ace person, have you ever experienced a “crush”? Like is there a feeling of platonic crushes? I’m not aro or ace so I don’t know and was just thinking about it. Honestly I think the only thing you’d be missing out on is that butterfly feeling when you have a crush. Everything else you can experience platonically. Platonic love. Platonic intimacy. Platonic vulnerability. Passionate friendships. Sounds like a good deal to me! Hahahah. I’m sorry you feel left out, hopefully this comment didn’t make that worse or anything. Have a good day!

    I'm not personally aro, but I really REALLY liked what Robbie said about thinking of platonic love and romantic love being on the same level, just different. That's a very nice way to think about it, and was actually very comforting.... I like it

    • @caduceusdraws
      @caduceusdraws 5 ปีที่แล้ว +153

      It might sound cheesy but I like to think of platonic and romantic love as 'two different pillars of the temple of Love™" (the temple of love part might be a bit cheesy but-) I think it shows well how one isn't superior to the other, and both are equally important (holds the whole structure up) and while different, still part of the same structure :3

      Mikolam07 that’s a fun take and it’s a very nice visual but like... aro people function without the romantic pillar, so you don’t really need both as nice as it is for some people to have romantic love. I like to think of it like... idk socks? You can mismatch them just fine (let’s say that’s friendship) but it’s a great bonus for people to have matching pairs (a relationship.) Some people don’t care or like just having mismatched, whereas others REALLY want a matching pair.

    So now I know why every single lyric Robbie has ever sung has hit the nail on the head for me... I'm also aromatic/asexual and trans. This guy would be my dream friend. I also have so much platonic love and have even tried to fall in romantic love, but immediately fell out of it, realizing it wasn't real... "Often I am upset that I cannot fall in love but I guess this avoids the stress of falling out of it;" damn, now I know why those lyrics hit so hard.

    I'm asexual and I don't understand how sexual love is considered the next step up after romantic love. People go on a few dates and stuff and are like "finally the dates are over now we can hook up", and fail to appreciate the time you've spent with that person, acting like the only thing it led up to was that.
    Also, if you're dating someone, you shouldn't just be their partner, but also their friend. Spending quality time is so important in any relationship. It isn't just all roses and candles, it's having fun!

    2) I used to be upset for not having a partner as a 12 year old kid because all of my friends are forming rElAtIoNsHiP and I feel left out. pretty sure all of the people I thought I have a crush on is just me admiring their existence and being attracted to their aesthetics. idk for sure but I'm 19 now but I don't get excited about being in a relationship. I love friendship more. and if I did get crushes on people (before, I don't get crushes on people now) it'll only last minimum of 3 days and maximum of 3 months. I dunno, it is how it is

Ive gotten a girlfriend that I really like and she is serious about me. Ive learned that I have so much platonic and romantic love to give- I tell all my friends I love them and hug all my friends (haha). i really cherish everyone around me and i make sure they know it.

    God I feel so alone sometimes being on the aro spectrum, especially cause I do want to experience those feelings but I know I can’t and I’m kind of repulsed when those feelings are directed towards me. But I think I’m similar with platonic love, I platonically love my friends so much and I do love hugs and affection, but I associate it a lot with romance sometimes and that’s why I tend to hold back on those actions, out of fear that it will come off as romantic. I think it’s really awesome to see such an incredible songwriter not write about romantic love all the time!

      Autumn g This is a big mood. I’m also aromantic and the term for being a repulsed by romance is called apothiromantic. (Which I also identify as). It took me a long time to get comfortable with the idea of doing romantic things but in a platonic way. I got to the point where a friend and I considered us to be platonically dating. But now it’s weird because they are actually dating someone and it feels really strange because I don’t understand romantic relationships

      This was commented 3 months ago but I think that if you really don't want a relationship with them then tell them that because you shouldn't have to be in a relationship that you don't want to be in. I also think you should definitely explain that you don't want your friendship to end because of this but you should also expect that they won't be happy and probably very upset or maybe even angry. You should try to understand how they're feeling though.

    I've come to grips with my being aromantic for a long time, and the very moment I had made me so unusually happy for some reason. It was as though all the burden of feeling like; this is something people "need" to lead normal lives was lifted, and I viewed myself as a little more whole of a person for it, rather than fractured or incomplete. The knowledge of platonic and romantic love being on the same plane rather than one being greater than the other is truly important, and without it, I'd still be running around confused. Sometimes I get sad watching the world around me turn, the people indulging in things I don't find much interest in, but ultimately that's them, and that's the world. You can't view yourself as glued to this grand scheme where if you don't conform to normalities, you'll be rejected and bounced off the planet. Present yourself proudly as if to say "I know myself/(I'm figuring things out). I wouldn't have you know me, unless you'd like to, but I'm here and there is no removing me, who I am, or how I feel." If you can get that mindset down, you're set for life, and you're living it right.

      @Da Koynul There can be multiple meanings to a word. Asexual also means without sexual feelings or associations. Do your research before calling people out.

    When I first heard This Is Home I immediately felt like "wow, somebody else like me exists" because each lyric was like it's own little idea and moment and I could see every one of them in my life. I'm not Aro, but Ace and people either don't know what that is or assume I don't like relationships, love, ect. I found out about Cavetown and I loved the music. All of the sonts in general have such a beautiful pale yellow feel to them, and it just makes me less lonely.

    The idea of romantic and sexual attraction doesn't interest me in the slightest and that makes me uncomfortable. What makes me even more uncomfortable is when people are like "ohhh she must be gay and just not willing to say it" like no.
    if I were a lesbian I would say so, theres no shame in it.
    It's something that I feel already separates me from most other people and it hurts even more when people don't legitimately recognize my experiences. Each and every single time I bring it up to people their responses make me feel ashamed about something that a lot of people are going through. Thank you for this video.

    • @natalie196
      @natalie196 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Ay. Your experiences and feelings are valid. You're great. I hope you find a way to make peace with the uncomfortable aspects of your person. Its easier said than done, but changing your reactions to things changes how you live. What I did (I'm bi-romantic and people call me a ho or say I'm straight but idealize the gay community because all my friends are gay so I lie to fit in which is a weirdly intelligent and completely incorrsct assumption) was I just accepted that some people just aren't going to understand. It's like when you like an unpopular food and people react in that weird extreme. You dont get ashamed for liking the food because it's food everyone's tastes and experiences are different. Their opinion isn't going to magically change your taste buds, y'know? I sincerely hope you have/find some positive people who do understand or are open to learning and I hope you can get to a slightly better place as far as self love and confidence goes. I believe in you, fam. I may be on the opposite end of the spectrum, but no one deserves to feel ashamed for who they are.

      Heya sweetie, I’m the same and I know what you mean. It’s really tough and when people make jokes and stuff it always makes me feel uncomfortable but i never know how to ask people not to because I feel like I’ll be burdening them. And yeah people always seem to assume that it’s to do with your sexual orientation but like it’s more like the lack of?
      But yeah, there’s nothing wrong with you at all, you are valid, you are beautiful, and you are amazing
      💜🖤 good luck honey
