Vent incoming.

As a platoniromantic person, I feel an unreasonable jealousy when my friends become romantically involved, or get married. I think, "Why does that person get the best of you, your time and energy, your vows of commitment, your diamond rings and all that stuff? Why, when I have known you for longer, loved you as much, and served you so well?"

"Oh, but I have special feelings for that person!" they say. "It's different to Just Friendship like I have with you."

Well, I have special feelings for you, idiot! Why does that person get your special feelings exclusively? Why is my love worth less because I distribute it more even-handedly? Why is your relationship with your romantic partner more valuable than your relationship with me just because you and your romantic partner don't love the same way I do?

Why is my love "just friendship" when I have loved you so devotedly and so well?

Why do you love that person more because you love them differently?

i cant even tell my friends about this new obscure aro label i found that fits me like no other label has before. because that would entail telling them that i felt quasi-romantic feelings for them before and i dont know how to deal with that.

#platoniromantic #do i have to come out to every new friend i make?#thats tiring #and this label is so bloody obscure so even if i did i would need to explain it each time #damn that sucks

Redefining Nebularomantic to be more open-ended as a label, like its Nebulasexual counterpart

Introduction:

Nebula- as a label was meant to be quoi- but specific to people who feel their neurodivergence and/or (action/attraction type)-related intrusive thoughts influences the respective orientation for them.

If you look at the nebulasexual label it is defined broadly, just as I described in the above paragraph. However, the term nebularomantic has almost always been defined only as "cannot distinguish between platonic and romantic attraction because of neurodivergence" unfortunately.

Now there are generally a few problems with equating platoniromantic with quoiromantic:

Quoiromantic is an umbrella term with many definitions it can include. It generally includes any difficulty in comprehending or fully understanding an attraction or relationship type. Platoniro definitely is included in this but it is inaccurate to define quoiro as only platoniromantic and it disrespects the broader definition of quoi- that the coiner intended

It assumes that we all have a connection to platonicism and understand the concept of "platonic" well. Not all quoiros use the arospec label and some are more alloromantic-spec aligned but there is an assumption that arospecs must have a huge connection to platonicism (due to platonormativity) which undoubtedly sidelines those of us who don't (aplatonics and plato averse or repulsed people mainly)

It implies that you cannot confuse other attractions with romantic if this is the only way quoi- gets (mis)defined

Anyways, seeing as how the nebulasexual label functions as "quoisexual if orientation influenced by being nd and/or having sexual intrusive thoughts", it is very reductive to make the romantic orientation of nebula- spectrum mean only "platoniromantic and neurodivergent"

For those reasons I am now redefining Nebularomantic as follows:

Nebularomantic: Being unsure whether one experiences romantic attraction, being unable to fully understand romantic attraction, or otherwise identifying as quoiromantic or similar experiences, and this being influenced by one's neurodivergence and/or having intrusive thoughts about romance

The main reason I am doing this is because I'm an apothiplatonic sexuromantic who is quoiromantic and does not want people like me to be excluded from the label of nebularomantic. I also want arospec and adjacent terms to be defined properly, instead of being forcibly made to involve platonicism, despite the other orientation types' counterparts of the term not even specifying confusion with ANOTHER attraction type (while still including it under the term if one wishes to id w it for that reason).

This very much means people who fit the older definition of nebularo are still nebularo !! Just that it will no longer be the ONLY way to be nebularomantic because there was no necessity for that label to be that specific to begin with, especially compared to the usage of it in the acespec adjacent version (nebulasexual).

Additionally if anyone wants to coin another term that specifically ONLY means "platoniromantic and orientation influenced by one's neurodivergence" you definitely can. I think that can be a useful label for some people if they want it. (I might coin one like that for sexuromantic myself at some point)

Additionally at one point I will coin a term 'Nimbusromantic' which is explicitly inclusive of nebularomantics who do not experience platonic attraction and/or don't feel a connection to platonicism thus don't relate to the older definition of nebularomantic.

platonirose/platrose: an orientation in which romantic and sexual attraction are experienced the same as or indistinguishable from platonic attraction; being both platoniromantic and platonisexual

[pt: platonirose/platrose: an orientation in which romantic and sexual attraction are experienced the same as or indistinguishable from platonic attraction; being both platoniromantic and platonisexual. end pt]

for anon! the flag is based on the original platoni- flag, which seems to have been specifically intended as a platoniromantic flag, and my platonisexual flag.

Ya know, I've come to dislike the term "friends with benefits" for platonic-sexual relationships because...friendship is a benefit in and of itself! It brings so much joy into life! Sex isn't necessary for it!

And it feels like most of those who do engage in fwb just value the sex and not their friend or the trust and affection gained. Like, pleasure is great, don't get me wrong but...

I think there's something to be said about having a friend you care deeply for and trust enough to have sex with, without the sex becoming the forefront (if said friend has agreed to it)

I guess a bit like how some view romance, but without the romance? I don't know, I can't tell difference between platonic and romantic anyway

Personally, sex is something I could only do with those I knew and trusted. And that friend would be in the deeper end of my platonic feelings to even offer a platonosexual relationship (while also knowing if they'd be down/available)

This has been brought to you by a quoiromantic who feels very deeply platonically and is horny

Shoutout to aros that don't know if or how they feel romantic attraction. Shoutout to aros that definitely feel romantic attraction at some point in some way. Shoutout to romo aros and shoutout to aros who see having a partner of some kind as important to their life goals. Shoutout to aros that aren't ace. Shoutout to aros that enjoy romance and nevertheless experience romantic attraction differently than alloros do.

Just a big ol' shoutout to aro ppl that don't relate to the restrictions that uneducated and alloro ppl may project onto the aromantic label, because they don't understand that aromantic is a spectrum. You are aro enough, and your experiences with attraction and romance are not alloro!

I am giving you big hugs if you like hugs, and a big serving of your favorite refreshing beverage if not!

Angst, and internalised aphobia, incoming.

Sometimes I hate being platoniromantic.

Sometimes, I really, genuinely, loathe it.

I hate the fact that any time I start getting platonically close to a person, I start feeling romantic about them too. I hate all the little crush-like twinges or pangs that I feel toward anyone who is particularly kind or understanding toward me. I hate the fact that every close friendship I have starts to feel like a romantic affair, complete with jealousy and the longing for more intimacy. I hate the jealousy — the stupid, unreasonable, irrational, nonsensical jealousy which is utterly unfounded and unethical: it is wrong to make one's friends feel as though they shouldn't date and shouldn't have other close friends. I hate the fact that I hate it when my closest people get romantic partners. I hate the longing that I feel: it's ridiculous to want to cuddle, caress, kiss and hold hands with one's friends, to think wistfully of sleeping in the same bed and snuggling … especially if said friends would not be willing to do such things. I feel guilty and foolish when I daydream about touching a dear friend. I don't want to make them dirty with my horrid little feelings and desires, my bastardised hybrid version of love, friendship contaminated with misplaced romance that my friend never consented to. I think this is the crux of why, for me, being platoniromantic is hard: the feelings are real but it feels unethical to feel them. Moreover, the feelings are real but seldom reciprocated in kind: most people are not platoniromantic, and thus one cannot expect them to understand or reciprocate my bizarre cocktail of 'normal', friendly, platonic affection and interest paired with passionate, romantic feelings.

I hate the way every close friendship is accompanied by this pointless drama that occurs only in my own mind and compels me to perform complex emotional gymnastics in order to keep these stupid feelings away from my unwitting friend, because it would be cruel and unfair to expose them to my ridiculous emotions.

But the feelings are real. The jealousy, the longing for intimacy, the silent internal swooning over how wonderful and cool and desirable my friend is ... And although the feelings are real, the friendship is still just friendship: my romantic feelings are occurring over nothing — or rather, over something that only I am feeling. I'm doing this to myself. And I hate that, too, because it means that I am being my own enemy in this situation.

I just — why does every relationship have to feel like unrequited love, damn it!?
