How to know if I´m aromantic?
Hi, I (M,27yo) have never been in a romantic relationship in my life. I have had sex and I like it and enjoy it, but it's always been casual.
The thing is, I have never felt anything close to romantic attraction to anyone, never had "butterflies in my stomach", never had a crush, never felt ANYTHING. But I do want it, I would like to feel it for someone, but doesn't matter how much I try, nothing happens. My friends usually describe their experiences and I couldn't relate less and tbh I don't understand half of the things they say, I don't get how they can feel/do such things.
I'm not sure if that makes me aro cause everything I have read about it also includes the fact that aro people don't want not desire that romantic feeling/experience, but I do, I feel like I'm missing something from life, from the experience of being human.
So in a nutshell, how do you tell the difference between being incapable of feeling romantic love for someone and just not having found the right person? Cause I don't wanna set myself in a cage thinking I can't feel that when in reality I can, but I also don't wanna be holding on to the hope of something that will never arrive.
Any help/comment is appreciated. And sorry if I didn't use a term in the right way or if my understanding on the topic is clearly limited, cause it is, I'm new to this concept and I'm trying to fully grasp it in order to find out if it applies to me.
