I think trauma has made me aromantic, which sucks, because I really want to date.

Maybe autism too. I don’t know at this point. I think I’m better off alone. I’d cut off my friends too if I wouldn’t go insane.

Yep. :’) I’m “proudly” an avoidant now, after years of anxious attachment and realising that, no, they just don’t like me. Now, it feels like I have no feeling left. Not in a vindictive way, just in a damaged and numb way. But I still want companionship, I just know it would be bad for both people.

Idk I was able to be in a relationship pretty easily with someone I wasn't overwhelmingly attracted to. So that helps but maybe it wasn't really fair to him
