It is strange and incredibly heavy to realise your love operates on a completely different level to the societal expectation that is romantic love. As an aromantic person, it can be maddening and deeply isolating to watch the world treat romance as the only form of love that matters, while non-romantic connections get minimised. It feels like you're speaking a language nobody else can understand.

Sometimes I wish I could feel emotions in the "traditional" sense too and that life would be easier if I could. But I think it's important to be yourself. Your love (however that may look) isn't any less significant or impactful just because it doesn't follow a romantic script. Maybe one day you'll find people who truly see and acknowledge the weight of what you have to give, even when it's not wrapped up in a romantic package. But maybe you won't either, it can be lonely when society operates differently. However, there is a strength in knowing your emotions are real, special and entirely your own even if the rest of the world doesn't recognise it.

genuinely and it doesnt help that nobody wants me like dat but it Is What It Is :P

There, there lad. I don’t think there is anything wrong with you mentally for not easily falling head over heels for any creaton that has a decent personality or a body for that matter. Also you do know that you can fall in love with more than just humans, it could be seasons, smells, things and animals. I find it’s better to focus on falling in love with life and yourself and generally people will slip in and try to love life with you and end up loving the reality that you fell in love with.
