I never have any interest towars making a relationship in my life. Ngl ive encountered some people that express their interest so honestly and they have a good prospects as a partner but I always run away after a date or two or if they shows too much interest. I dont think im asexul too as im a pervert towards some anime characters... How do I differentiate whether im aro or ace?

Heya, as I'm not aro I can't really tell you much about it, but my best friend is aro/ace and, well, I haven't seen him develop any kind of romantic interest in anybody ever. If you don't feel interest in the idea of a romantic partner, I would think you may be aro. I can't really be sure about ace either, because every person goes about it in a different way, some are disgusted at sex, some just don't feel anything interesting from it, and some like me were uncomfortable with that but unable to get away from it, until I started taking a medication that killed my libido and now I feel free from that. I guess at some point you maybe will find out, don't rush, just be you and slowly try to understand yourself

As far as I've seen what it means to be aro /ace differs from how ppl choose to identify by such an identity so ya keep monitoring the way u feel and think and give urself some time ull find your own answer

I'm aro and probably ace. For me romantic relationships are only transactional relationships that people romanticize and call it love. There is nothing wrong with transactional relationships but I don't really believe in love and I'm not attracted to anyone.

I'm still on discovery when it comes to being ace. These days I think I am ace because of the lack of romantic attraction which leads into lack of sexual attraction.

However the reason for being ace or/and aro can change for everyone. For me it is basically like this. It is something you will discover yourself.

And for the anime characters part, I think that since fictional characters can be changed in your own mind and you can create the ideal person for you through them, they do not count.
