Hi! I think very little relationships are not based on attraction.
Platonic attraction is the desire for platonic relationships. It's looking at someone and thinking 'I really want to be their friend'. I know other aroace people who talk about how much they want to befriend people they think are cool.
I'm aplatonic and that just doesn't happen to me. Sure I like talking to people and you're right to say people need connections but I just don't have the desire to be close to any specific person. People I call my friends are people who have stuck around with me for years. I don't look for friends and if someone doesn't stick around I don't really care.
I want people to like me but beyond that it doesn't matter to me.
Familial attraction is how people talk about "I don't get along with so and so but she's my mother/he's my father/she's my grandmother etc). I guess it is kind of obligation but from a more emotional perspective it's the urge to be close to your blood and to get along. It probably stems from the biological advantage of wanting to be close to your family for protection advantages.
For me, as an afamilial person, I don't care for my family members any more than I would for a stranger. I don't actively wish them ill will. I just don't feel bonded with them anymore than I do the average person. In my case, this is likely related to trauma but that might not be the case for everyone.
The anattractional spectrum refers to relationships between people. I love sunsets, my pets, the rain and so many other things. However, my types of attraction to human beings are limited.
It can definitely be lonely. I think it's more lonely because people don't understand. I'm entirely happy the way I am but people's lack of understanding/knowledge and people's expectations of what I should feel are very restricting.
I live my life differently and experience things differently but that doesn't make the quality of my life less.
Hope this makes sense. Feel free to ask about anything else!

People out there say that afamilal people aren’t valid and familial attraction isn’t a thing and then turn around and say stuff like ‘oh yeah this person is like a sibling to me’ and ‘my chosen family’ and ‘my mother-figure’ and ‘I love my pet like a child’.
Anyway, afamilial folks are awesome. Loveless folks are awesome.
I know there are more alt flags but I'm tired.
Happy pride y'all are awesome

"love is love" until it doesn't include sex
"love is love" until it lives in separate beds
"love is love" until it is queer platonic
"love is love" until it does not comply with compulsory sexuality and amatonormativity
love IS love, for aspecs, for sex repulsed folk and for platonic relationships
"love is love" apply to more than same-sex relationships in a world where romantic and sexual relationships are considered more valuable
Remember to advocate for Asexuals and Aromantics this pride. Because we are also here, and we are also queer
WHAT FUCKING PART OF DON’T POST NUDES, SEMI-NUDES OR ANYTHING SEX-RELATED ON THE #asexual TAG WAS UNCLEAR
Was it the DON’T???
i am so fucking tired of seeing posts like with tags like #str¡p tease #hook me up and other shit like that on the tag which is literally made for “garlic bread> sex”??? FUCK OFF and post that stuff SOMEWHERE ELSE.
No I don’t want pictures of you in your lingerie looking provocative with a caption like “dm for a good time~” shut the fuck up and leave me to my garlic bread
"Sex and romance is what makes us human!"
What if I fuckin' bite you and take a chunk out of your arm? Hm?
the asexual tag is trending again. y'all know what that means.
THE BOTS ARE RETURNING, MAN YOUR BATTLE STATIONS
I want to spam garlic bread in the ask box of every aspec person on this app . I'm not kidding, this is my project, it's important, you can reblog, start chains under this post, do what you want, but if you're aspec, write something in the comments or in the reblogs, so I will gift you some garlic bread. WRITE SOMETHING IN THE REBLOGS, ANYTHING, EVEN JUST "#garlic bread", otherwise I won't find you among all these notes
Let me know if you don't receive your garlic news in two days! I might miss some orders!
Btw I'm keeping a journal of my orders. I write your usernames, so I can remember the great people who supported this project
being aroace and also a picky eater is just a constant stream of "well how do you know you won't like it if you never try it"

I’m asexual.
I read NSFW fanfics like fantasy novels disconnected from reality until I remember that people actually do a lot of these things.
I see provocative advertisement and think it’s exaggerated as a joke until I remember that people actually get turn on by this.
It feels unbelievable to me but apparently these are real things.

@psychicdamage-identified yoohoooo I'm in need of a little boost here *wagging my tissue like a damsel in distress*
SCREW IT!!
MY FELLOW ACESPECS! WE NEED A NEW TAG!
BOTS HAVE TAKEN OVER OUR TAG TO THE POINT IT IS UNUSABLE, SO THEREFORE, I INTRODUCE A NEW TAG:
#Acespec Mafia
(This was the only thing I could come up with- 😭)
I had no idea there was a bot war in the asexual tag
so now I feel like I’m walking through a ruined battlefield looking for survivors
