Post 3: What Not To Say To ArosDon’t ever say these things to an aromantic, but also to people in general when talking about romance/dating.Happy Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week 2021 Each day I’ll be posting something to spread awareness and positivity about aros!Post 1: It’s a Spectrum; Post 2: Aromantics Aren’t Broken; Post 4: Aros Are Awesome; Post 5: What Is My Aromantic Label?; Post 6 (Final Post): Have Pride![ID: Three statements on what not to say to aros. 1. You just haven’t fallen in love yet. This is a dismissive/invalidating statement. just like allos can want to date after seeing people dating in media/real life, aros can know they don’t feel romantic attraction/want to date.2. You’ll find the right one eventually. This a dismissive/invalidating statement. you are equating an aro’s lack of romantic attraction/desire to find a partner to them not meeting “the one” yet. There is no such thing as “the one”; no one is made for another person. Aromanticism is not something to be “cured” by a “special someone”. It is an orientation that doesn’t need to be fixed.3. You’ll change your mind. This a dismissive/invalidating statement. While it is perfectly normal for an aro’s aromanticism to fluctuate, it is not for you to decide/assume that it will and it is certainly not up to you to decide that an aro will stop being aro after XYZ. Aromanticism is not a phase. End Description.] -- source link
