Romantic Dinner

When either you and or your partner makes food, or the two of you go out to a nice restaurant, and you and your romantic partner eat the meal together, by yourselves so you can enjoy each other's company and have a nice time together without being disturbed.
Natalie: How are you and Alexandra doing?
Zuko: We're doing pretty well. I took Alexandra out to Stoneforge for a romantic dinner last night; something we have not done in three to five months. We enjoyed it a lot.

Natalie: Good to hear.

romantic entitlement

Two ethical problems that arise when an individual asks someone out. They include:
-The assumption that if you ask someone out, then they have to say yes to the person who asked them out. However, this is not true as it is up to the person getting asked to decide. They should say no if they don’t like you to avoid causing both of you to suffer a lot of unnecessary pain down the line.
-The presumption by one or both of the people involved that it is acceptable to spread bad rumors about the other person if the person asking the individual out gets rejected. This leads to unnecessary conflict and distrust of each other which benefits neither of you. Just because it didn't work out does not mean that they are entitled to spread bad rumors about each other or that you two can't be friends anymore.
Romantic entitlement causes a lot of unnecessary suffering to a large number of people. People should try to avoid making these presumptions about romantic relationships in order to reduce their own and the person they like's suffering.

Aromantic

Someone who experiences Little To No Romantic Attraction, there’s a wide Aro spectrum.

Some Aro’s can feel romantic attraction in some circumstances and others cannot feel it at all, either way they’re all valid.

Also I’d like to add that Aromanticism is Not a sexual orientation. It’s a romantic orientation, I often see people calling it a sexual orientation when it isn’t (Aromanticism is not related to sexual things.)

A good place to learn more about it is a website called AUREA Aromantic because they have a wide variety of definitions and even a Frequently Asked Questions section for anyone.
Person 1 “Have you heard about Aromanticism?”

Person 2 “No, what is Aromanticism?”

Person 1 “It’s a romantic orientation where someone feels little to no romantic attraction, there’s a wide spectrum too!”

Person 2 “That’s pretty interesting, does it have any other names?”

Person 1 “Yup!, some people shorten it to Aro or Aromantic”

Person 2 “Thank you for the information!”

Person 1 “You’re welcome, also Aromantic Spectrum Awareness week is from the 20th of February till the 26th of February”
