It says aromantic means either lack of romantic attraction or lack of want to be in romantic relationship. Would anyone disagree if I changed this to the first? The latter seems like a choice, and not what aromantics are about (as abstenence is seperate from asexual, but the two usually go together).

Hi Drant! Good job on updating this page, it needed it. Do you think squishes should be mentioned? -Hexaquark 01:45, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

aromantic

I consider myself to be an aromantic asexual. I have no need for a relationship and can't understand why some of you see this as a choice and in fact it annoys me. I have little romantic attraction. I only once have been madly in love with a very good friend with whom I had a very close bond. The only reason why I could have wanted a relationship, was because I didn't want to loose his friendship and not because I wanted one. The thing is I simply have no need for a relationship, I only care for friendship. And it would be nice if this could be included in the wiki again. Especially as this really says what I am. Friendship is one thing for me. A relationship and the sex that comes together with it, is something completely different for me. I know you can have an asexual relationship, but that doesn't appeal to me either.
