#it’s just #it’s weird man #the line feels simultaneously very thin and blurry for close friends and like this massive leap #I wonder if it has something to do with the whole demiromantic thing #like #I haven’t romantically liked every person I’ve been close friends with #but every person I’ve romantically liked I’ve been close friends with #if that makes sense #I don’t really get crushes #it feels more like some line being jumped between close friend and More #but I cannot for the life of me figure out where that line is #and sometimes shuffle back and forth over it #there’s no real set of rules for what’s what when it comes to romantic-platonic I feel #because people go ‘cuddle your friends! kiss your friends! platonic love can still mean those things!’#but when those things are also shown as indicators of romantic love #where the hell is that line #what’s the DIFFERENCE #idk man #I’m just rambling at this point #asexuality - at least my flavour of it - feels pretty clear cut #that’s easy #but the rest? especially when it’s not solid aro and it’s Demi or gray or whatever one might have?#the lines feel so very blurred #asexual #aromantic
