Before the story begins,let me explain what being aroace (Aromantic Asexual) means ; if you already know about it, you can skip this part.
Asexual: Someone who experiences little to no sexual attraction to others.
Asexuality is a spectrum consisting of: 1. Asexual: experience absolutely no sexual attraction 2. Graysexual: experience sexual attraction very rarely 3. Demisexual: experience sexual attraction only after having an emotional bond with someone
Asexuality is not a choice just like any other sexual orientation.
Being asexual is a very subjective experience.
Asexual people have different attitudes to sex. Some are : 1. Sex-averse (don't want to have sex and may be repulsed by it) 2. Sex-indifferent (not actively wanting sex,but not against having it) 3. Sex-favourable (want to have sex and find it enjoyable even though they do not experience the attraction)
Aromantic Someone who experiences little to no romantic attraction
Being Aromantic is not a choice.
It is also a spectrum consisting of:
1. Aromantic: experience absolutely no romantic attraction 2. Grayromantic: experience romantic attraction very rarely 3. Demiromantic:experience romantic attraction after having an emotional bond with someone
Aromantic people also have different attitudes towards to romance 1. Romance-averse (doesn't want to be in a romantic relationship and may be repulsed by it) 2. Romance-indifferent (not actively wanting romance, but not against it) 3. Romance-favourable (wants to be in a romantic relationship and enjoys it even though they do not feel the attraction)
Allosexual -someone who feels sexual attraction Alloromantic -someone who feels romantic attraction
"Allo" is short for alloromantic/allosexual.
Some aromantic and/or asexual people want some sort of life partner; some don't.
Some asexual people are alloromantic. Some aromantic people are allosexual.
Some use the SAM (Split attraction model) to describe how they experience attraction whilst others don't.
