Fem aro rep in media

So I've been digging for stories with women who have aromantic tendencies to just see myself in the media. And I have come across a few so far my fav being Jo from little women. And I Just finished this webtoon and it was great, very found family and friendships and it felt like a warm hug but right at the end the mc ends up in a sapphic relationship with one of the friends and it is beautiful and I love it and I know aromantic people do find love and relationships and it's still really good representation fr. But I guess I'm just sad cuz I low-key wanted it to be a no romance at all kind of story. Like I want more Jo like aro rep where she ends up content single yk. 500 days of summer felt great in that regard and i felt somewhat represented as an aroallo but then summer gets married and pregnant 😣. All in all these are great stories and I'll just keep on looking for ones with no romance as tbe conclusion

Edit: Omg guys I've gotten so much recommendations, thank you so much. I have enough to occupy me for a WHILE.

Tips on dealing with loneliness and jealousy

I'm not going to get into the details as I'm sure you all know that being aro can be an incredibly isolating experience and as much as I love being single and not even having a desire for partnership, it can be very lonely especially if everyone around you is coupled up. So does anyone have any tips on what to do when the feelings of loneliness or even jealousy ( for wanting special treatment) pops up? Like I understand that what I'm feeling will fade away as it always does but I'd like a hack or something or maybe an affirmation or mantra to help get through it.

Book/Video Essay Recs on RA

Hi guys, I'm a 22 year old queer woman and I think I might be a bit of a relationship anarchist but idk if it's something that I am or if I'm aromantic or if I'm just still young and haven't found love yet or whatever. What I do know is that currently, I put strong value on community and platonic relationships and as much I appreciate love and romance, it has never been much of a priority in my life. I don't yearn for romance or long to be anyone's partner but I do love meaningful connections and all. Idk if it's because I'm scared of commitment (I doubt this) or because I'm incapable of romantic attraction.

But someone said I sound like a relationship anarchist and I have heard of the term but I'm wary of picking up a label if I don't fully understand the history behind it. So does anyone have any books or videos for a beginner? I'd like to learn more and understand if that's who I am or maybe who I'll choose to be as I grow. Thank you so much.

22F | JHB | Queer Friends

Hi guys. Thought I'd just post it. I'm a black queer woman looking to make some friends, preferably ones I can hang out with irl. I'm an immigrant so I'm still relatively new to the country and I'd like to have some more connections.

I am very open minded, i like anime, fanfiction and tv shows. I'm really into going for events and activities and the likes.

I'm finding it hard to list out my interests and disinterested😭😭. But yeah, I'd like to make some queer friends or queer allies and hopefully have a community I can rely on.

You can send me a dm❤️

I accidentally registered for CompTIA SecX instead of CompTIA Sec+

I'm looking to get into GRC and I was supposed to start with the + introductory to cybersec but I accidentally registered for the X, the super advanced one. And I can't swap so I have no choice but to continue, I'm worried on how that'll affect my career journey moving forward

I accidentally registered for CompTIA SecX instead of CompTIA Sec+

I'm starting of and was looking to specialize in GRC, and now I'm worried that taking this advanced certification might hinder my journey. I reached out and I can't swap to the +. I don't know what to do, it was very expensive
