It's always "aros can still date!" "aros can still be in (any type of non-romantic or romantic) relationships!" "aros aren't heartless!" "aros can still love in different ways!"
Well, sure, you do you.
But not all of us. A lot of us are *completely* non-partnering. There's loveless aros. Aplatonic aros. Hell, even heartless is a label some aros use!
We don’t need to do anything to "replace" the romantic relationships we don’t have. People can be completely happy alone! Without a partner! (Shocking, I know!)
I'm just a bit tired of all the amatonormativity I still see under some of the trending aro-positivity posts...

recognising people's ao3 usernames in the kudos is like taking out a library book and seeing a familiar name like ah, yes, we are both connoisseurs of the art. cheers bitch 🥂
you love so easily, you see a way to love everyone and I think that's amazing but somehow that's so bitter, because you love everyone maybe loving me isn't special
I tattooed the color of your lips on mine because your kiss wasn't available
It's so curious how there's a high chance that I'll never know my cause of death, because maybe it will be something sudden that my brain won't process at all before dying and then other people will know. But I won't.
In a world where a pretty face matters the most, I was cursed with acne and the scars weren't left only on my face.
Don’t go wasting your emotion Lay all your love on me
