Aromantic (Aro) individuals typically don't experience romantic attraction and may not be interested in romantic relationships.

Aromanticism is part of the LGBTQIA+ community and is represented by the "A" in the acronym.

There are many identities on the aromantic spectrum, including greyromantic, demiromantic, and more.

Remember

Aromanticism is different from asexuality

Your identity is valid however you experience attraction

You can still have fulfilling relationships

Queer-platonic relationships (QPRs) are an option

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean to be aromantic?

Being aromantic means you typically don't experience romantic attraction to others. This doesn't mean you can't form deep, meaningful relationships—it just means those relationships may not include romantic feelings. Aromanticism is a valid sexual orientation.

Can aromantic people fall in love?

Aromantic individuals typically don't experience romantic love in the traditional sense. However, they can experience other types of love, such as platonic love, familial love, and aesthetic attraction. Some people on the aromantic spectrum may experience romantic attraction rarely or only under specific circumstances.

Is aromanticism the same as being asexual?

No, they're different. Aromanticism relates to romantic attraction, while asexuality relates to sexual attraction. You can be aromantic and not asexual (experiencing sexual attraction but not romantic attraction), or you can be both aromantic and asexual. Each identity is independent.

Can aromantic people be in relationships?

Yes! Aromantic people can have fulfilling relationships. Some may choose queer-platonic relationships (QPRs), which offer intimacy and commitment without romantic expectations. Others may prefer friendships, or they may be comfortable in relationships that include romantic elements even if they don't experience romantic attraction themselves.

How do I know if I'm aromantic?

Only you can determine your romantic orientation. Reflect on your experiences: Do you experience romantic attraction? Do you desire romantic relationships? How do you feel about romantic gestures? This assessment can help guide your self-reflection, but remember that labels are personal tools—use them if they feel right, and don't worry if they don't.
