Am I still aroace or am I grey-romantic?
I identify as an Aromantic asexual but recently I have been having doubts about myself.
I have an ex-boyfriend and we are close friends now it has been over a year since our break up (we broke up for mental health reasons).
I now find that I am smiling whenever on the phone with them or texting them, I don't meet them in person much though. Because of this, I think I may be grey-romantic but I am unsure because I still don't feel what romance or crushes apparently feel like, my stomach doesn't flutter and I don't get lumps in my throat, I just smile and I feel genuinely happy being around them.
I get excited when I think about them but I never become nervous maybe this is because I am fully comfortable with them as we have known each other since primary school and they have been my best friend for years.
Maybe what I am feeling is the sensual attraction? or maybe it's love as I don't feel nervous around them. I do remember when we first got together, that I just picked them to be normal around my friends but I think I did get feelings because I remember holding their hand in the planetarium one day and I haven't forgotten the gesture. It may sound novelty but it plays in my head over and over and it's been about a year to six months since that happened.
sorry about my bad grammar lol
