I think I might be fucked or something; I don’t feel love the same way other people describe. No warm tingles, no sense of belonging. To me, it’s like having very close friends that I know care about me more than just as a friend.
I try to be a good partner, friend, family member, etc, because I take pride in my work. I reciprocate, but I’m just pretending at the end of the day; there’s no emotion from my side. I know my partner likes tea made a certain way at the same time, so I make it, but their smile is just feedback. All love languages are one-directional since I don’t understand it.
I haven’t told anyone, I think it would upset them, but maybe I should just be honest. I think they call it “aromantic” nowadays? Though I’m hesitant to add yet more labels to my identity.
I get that. I also like being alone, so theres that. Not for a very long amount of time, but if I get 3 days completely alone its like a whole new world.
I also am way more likely to have strong feelings for a stranger or aquantanice I’ve only met a couple times, if I really like them I can obsess over it. If I already know them it wears off fast.
There’s probably a lot of different kinds.

I feel warm tingles after a really excellent blowjob.
