sullina:

told someone i was aroace today and their immediate response was “how terrible!”

like, i’ve read from others that things like this happen, but ngl, actually experiencing it myself was a little surprising.

I wasn’t really all that offended tho. I’ve only known this person for a few days.

But still. my first response was “how is it terrible?”

I’m not exactly “missing out” on anything. How could I miss out on something that sounds like a nightmare to me?
