Hey man, I kinda know where you come from. I could never do the relationship thing because I'm aromantic too but I know the feeling of thinking you must have something medically wrong with you. I went through the ropes. I talked to doctors and did all the shit. In the end the only thing left I had to stand on was the idea that it was just a part of me. That, funny enough, was not the answer I had wanted. I still have some days where it frustrates me. However, I know, deep down, that this understanding of myself is better than the confusion I lived with before. Also, it's a journey to personal acceptance you travel every day and maybe sometimes you're gonna take a few steps back. That's fine. It happens. The most important thing is to keep moving forward after a slip. Don't get stuck. Things get harder when you get stuck.

I also know how coming out to people can be hard because most people don't even think it's real. In fact, when I came out to a family member (multiple times) they still assumed it was a phase, think I'm straight, and can't understand why I don't have a boyfriend yet. I gave up trying to explain myself. That hurt because I'm close with this family member. The thing is though, that was not the only experience I had. I have loving friends who accepted it and made me feel not only comfortable with it but welcome. I've had friends who support me and give me the human connection I need and defend me when others say that what I have is not enough. You're going to probably get both reactions, good and bad. You'll have to navigate how you react to that, how you accept it or don't accept it.

I wish you the best with that you're going through. Let me know if I can help.
