Who Cares Who Ends Up With Who? - Tumblr Posts

Oh God, me too.

Sadly, most fans just focus on the shipping and their OTP beyond anything else, even the plot. It's why I don't engage much with the fandom; that would raise my blood pressure too much to be healthy.

The annoying thing is, that you see this with every show/movie/book series. Fans get super invested in romantic relationships, despite the medium they are reading/watching not being focused on romance.

And then they end up hating the thing they used to love only because it didn’t give them the happy couple they had hoped for.

Maybe it’s part of being aromantic that prevents me from understanding that mindset but I can tell you that, from the outside, it can get pretty frustrating.

Why does everything have to be about shipping? That’s what fanfiction is for.

Marvel writers don’t have to fulfill your romantic fantasies.

I wish people could look at the show beyond shipping
