And I probably would say "Sorry, not interested in romance" rather than going into the whole aromantic/asexual spiel. How is that at all relevant? The secret poster doesn't even say that this girl identified as asexual in response to his romantic interest. Just that, hey, she's asexual and he's interested but discouraged...which doesn't mean he said "Hey I dig you!" and she said "Hey I'm asexual!" it means she said in the course of some conversation "Oh BTW I'm asexual" and he realized she was unlikely to return his interest.

there are heterosexuals and homosexuals and bisexuals who sometimes, believe it or not, are not interested in romantic relationships. it doesn't automatically make them asexual. it makes them...NOT INTERESTED.

...okay. I believe it. I know heterosexuals and homosexuals and bisexuals who are not interested in personal romance. Most people who know me casually tend to think that I'm a bisexual with no interest in romance, because I'm not shy about expressing my aesthetic appreciation of pretty people but don't want to date any of them, and hey, most of the time there's not really an appropriate conversation or point to correctly identify my orientation. It's also not usually relevant.

You're getting very aggressive about this issue. And if that last comment was meant to imply that I'm generalizing that sexuals are always interested in romance, then...um...I'm sorry? I didn't mean to imply that. I know that's not true. But we weren't talking about sexuals at the moment so I don't exactly see how I could have interjected that.

If, on the other hand, that last sentence was just meant to point out that an awful lot of people in the comments here are generalizing, then, yes! I agree!
