'Romantic bullshit' consists of things that detract from romance - objects like gross scented candles which induce suffocation; or clichéd thoughtless things like lousy poetry that make one of the parties involved feel awkward; ie, "roses are red, violets are blue, I have a gun, so get in the van."

Get the Romantic bullshit mug.An amazing shounen-ai anime (also a manga) that revolves around 3 couples (Junjou Romantica ((main couple)) , Junjou Egoist , and Junjou Terrorist). People who aren't even much of a fan of yaoi love this anime. The makers of it also made Sekaii Ichi Hatsukoi .
Non-Fangirl-" Hey what're you watching?"
Yaoi Fangirl- "Junjou Romantica. Look! There are 3 couples!"
Non-Fangirl- "Yaoi isn't really my thing.."
Fangirl- "Try it!"
10 minutes later...

Get the Romantic Cataracts mug.An aromantic (often shortened as aros) is an individual who experiences little to no romantic attraction to any person of any gender. The aro culture is represented by a flag with 4 horizontal stripes, black, grey, white and green. You might find many wearing white rings on their left middle finger as a symbol of their aromanticity. The aromantic community often overlaps with the asexual community and they share many values.
It can be hard to understand aromanticity without being able to defferentiate between platonic, sexual and romantic attraction, so I'll explain that first!
Platonic attraction: The desire to be friends with someone, no more.
Romantic attraction: This is the desire to be in a romantic relationship with someone, this does not include sex or intimacy. Only the wholesome parts of your typical relationship, like dates, kissing, handholding, loveletters ect.
Sexual Attraction: Sexual attraction is the desire to have sex with someone, simple as that.
Now that you know the difference, here are some variations of aromanticity:
Repulsed Aromantic: These are Aros who want absolutely nothing to do with romance.
Greyromantic: People who experience very little romantic attraction, or only feel it under certain curcumstances.
Demiromantic: Only feel romantic attraction after a strong emotional bond is formed.
Aromantic Asexuals: Aromantics who don't feel sexual or romantic attraction.
Note that aros can still have romance and aces can still have sex.

Examples:
(Tom) Hey that guy over there is hot, I'd love to hook up.
(Harry) I thought you were aromantic?
(Tom) Yeah, but I'm a gay aromantic, I just don't feel the emotional connection. I still feel sexual attraction though.
(Guy over there) Haha, you can't get in my pants anyway, I'm asexual and aromantic!
