This may be a dumb question....
But I was just diagnosed with traits of SPD yesterday and was wondering about something.... I've always felt like I might be aromantic.... (may be a duumb question) but do you think the diagnosis and romanticism are related? i just had this thought and I think they might be... my mind just kind of went..."hmmm that makes a lot of sense" lol __________________ ~Dx: Bipolar 1 with Psychotic features, Dysthymia, OCD with tics including dermotillomania, Complex PTSD, Anxiety, Dysgraphia, Medication Induced ADHD ~Self-Dx: BPD, ASD with tics, Depersonalization-derealization disorder ~Rx: Wellbutrin 150mg, Gabapentin 2700mg, VIstaril 50mg, Prazosin 2mg, Klonopin 3mg, Trazodone 100mg, Thorazine 50mg |

I don't understand what people mean when they say something is romantic. I know some of the things that are typically considered romantic, but I get no special feelings when I participate in them.

Did you mean you don't know what aromantic means? Or that you don't have romantic feelings like I don't?

I don't have romantic feelings. I am married but just never feel anything that I would call romantic. Candlelit dinners? Sunsets? They just don't stir up feelings that I would identify as romantic.

I feel exactly the same way.
People don't take me seriously though because I'm only 17 and I "can still fall in love" but I feel like- at least at this time- that it's b.s. __________________ ~Dx: Bipolar 1 with Psychotic features, Dysthymia, OCD with tics including dermotillomania, Complex PTSD, Anxiety, Dysgraphia, Medication Induced ADHD ~Self-Dx: BPD, ASD with tics, Depersonalization-derealization disorder ~Rx: Wellbutrin 150mg, Gabapentin 2700mg, VIstaril 50mg, Prazosin 2mg, Klonopin 3mg, Trazodone 100mg, Thorazine 50mg |
