PROBABLY BAD ENGLISH & GRAMMAR

In 2025 or 2024, I was still unsure if I was truly aromantic, so I chosed my oc and began to put onto her experiences, thoughts, and feelings that I felt but didn't fully understand, all related to being aromantic.

Ever since I was little, I felt strange and like something was off about me. I didn't feel the romantic "spark" that other people seemed to feel, so I put that onto my OC. Also the fact that I feel extremely uncomfortable and even annoyed when someone confesses their feelings to me, and that I simply didn't and don't understand romance, why people fell in love so quickly, and many other things.

These were probably things I already knew about myself but couldn't realize well (maybe), but projecting them onto my OC was like looking at another person and truly seeing what I felt and still feel.

That's how I came to the conclusion that I was aromantic. It was a slow process of self-discovery, but a very helpful one.
