(loveless) Aro Culture Is Not Wanting To Talk About Your Birthday When Someone Asks About It Because

(loveless) aro culture is not wanting to talk about your birthday when someone asks about it because it is very close to valentine's day and people tend to give you love-themed presents

i think stars r probibly like hot ice

i think stars are like apples . cold apples . stars would be cold if they were edible . they don't look hot . some stars would be like caramel coated apples tho , like the sun would def be caramel coated .

Hey, I'm getting more and more romance-repulsed by the day and with Valentine's Day coming up, it's gonna be unbearable... Is there any way to stop being romance-repulsed? Or any other advice?

hi! i’m so sorry this is coming after valentine’s day. there isn’t really a way to stop feeling romance repulsed, but the best advice i can really give is...

acknowledge that you’re feeling romance repulsion/exhaustion. I find it useful to phrase it as “I am feeling romance repulsed right now” - it both validates your emotions but also frames it as a thing of right now. I personally try to avoid the phrasing “this thing is making me romance repulsed” because it feels like I have no control then.

do what you can to avoid the situations that cause repulsion, but also have plans for ways to tolerate it when it happens and sooth yourself when it’s over. can you apply tactics from managing anxiety or other negative emotions? can you practice setting boundaries and giving yourself extra self-care when you’re having a tough emotional time?

if you can, identify people you can vent to. if you can’t, you could try journals, art, just - anything that works for you to help you release emotion. please don’t feel like you have to shove it down and ignore it - that doesn’t help if you never give yourself time for release.

I hope this can provide some basic resources, late as it is.

Stars are sorta hollow, like they got the crunchy apple shell then its empty, kinda like those gumballs that have the crunchy shell, then the gum, then are hollow in the center, but instead of having the softer gum part, it has a more crunchy apple part, does that make sense?

hmmm i can see how this might work but i believe stars are full on apple crunch . no hollow , no gum . just apple crunch

in my professional (not really) opinion, stars taste different depending on the color and size. yellow ones are most common and they taste like oranges except with the crunch of an apple.

you can even get rotted stars if they’re old enough. -💌🌸

hmm agreed ! i feel like blue stars are sort of a blue raspberry mixed with watermelon . extremely refreshing . yellow stars can range from banana to mango , lotta options there . red stars can be spicy but most of the time they're sort of rich flavored like chocolates or caramel . white stars can either be flavorless or like just straight up sugar . or maybe marshmallow
