Does anyone else see Peter Claffey as Carl?

Ever since seeing him in Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, his demeanor and size remind me of Carl. He looks like what I’d expect of Carl. I think if he could produce an American accent, he’d sound a lot like him as well. Id also love to see this actor do some of the crazy shit Carl does

Am I aromantic?

Sorry, I know you guys probably get this a lot but I’m genuinely uneducated, and still feel a little unsure after researching.

I enjoy watching romance on tv, I do get crushes and I have fallen in love. I feel lust and sexual attraction, even though I do have some intimacy issues stemming from anxiety.

The biggest thing is that as soon as there’s any implication that i am committed to someone or they expect something from me, I tend to become very uncomfortable and grossed out by the idea. When someone implies that they want to see me in weekly basis, whenever I feel that there’s an expectation for me to act touchy and flirty or be physical every time(or even most the time) I see a person, anything along those lines makes me feel immediately overwhelming, impossible, and kinda grossed out.

The one time I fell in love with a man, we were in a very lusty “situation-ship” when I was very young, and i ended it due to being “overwhelmed and depressed”

The woman I am in love with is my best friend whom I’ve slept with and we have decided to remain just friends, but we often talk about how if she never finds anyone, we may just marry eachother and raise kids together. We are very platonic despite knowing this, we just occasionally flirt mostly as a joke. She’s the only person I’ve ever been able to realistically imagine marrying.

Everyone else has been an endless stream of me having a crush, them wanting to move on to the next level, and me becoming avoidant, overwhelmed, and just immediately uninterested.

Edit: I’d like to add, I am from Utah and suspect that I sometimes feel more “trained” to try to find relationships due to cultural norms here
