I'm on the aromantic spectrum but I feel like I experience it in a weird way. i love the idea of going on dates and cuddling and truly feeling romantic attraction. I daydream about it and feel jealous that I won't ever experience the giddy teen romance. the thing is, no matter how hard I try or who I talk to, I can't feel romantic attraction. I've had maybe 2 crushes my entire life and even now I can't say if they were true crushes or squishes. I want to have a girlfriend and do cute couple things but I've never been able to be in a relationship where I actually feel romance. I just can't develop feelings. romance and love seems so cool in my head but I can never get it in real life. I can never form a real crush, I can't get the lovey dovey feelings, I just can't fall in love. it's weird and honestly a little frustrating. when I talk to other aro people most of them don't want to date, they have an indifference towards dating or find it pointless. I want to date but I know I can't because it's not fair for someone who does feel romantic attraction to be with someone who can't reciprocate those feelings

does anyone else feel like that? they want to date but just can't get themselves to feel romantic attraction?
