r/autoromantics

Being autoromantic has been great! Falling in love with myself has been good. I have written many love letters to myself and text myself using the app Antar.

Being my own boyfriend/self partnered has been a blast! I love to show myself some romance by dating myself. I have kissed myself before, and it was super great!

Basically I was calling with my friends and I was talking about how I was gonna go out to the mall. I was internally monologuing when I got to thinking about how its sad I'm going alone, so I thought about it like dates with myself and its like something just clicked. The rest of the night I was just giddy over the fact. I didn't even know autoromantic was a thing until I did my research. I was reading posts talking about how in love they are with themselves and I feel like I'm on a lower level than them. Like I'm obviously attracted to myself but I can't see myself ever going past talking to myself and going on dates. Is this the right label for me?

It really doesn't help I just rewatched the Rick and Morty episode about Beth getting with her clone.

Do you think you changed after discovering you were autoromantic? I think I kind of did but kind of didn't really

i feel like i've seen alot of different experiences that people talked about here. what dyou think some common ground would be apart from just loving ourselves romantically? or is there none?

Even if you haven't yet, I'd love to hear ideas. I don't know how to explain it well

This is pretty random, but I'd love to hear how life is going for you! Or anything else you'd like to share about your autoromantic experience. Have tips? Need to rant? Go right ahead

This is just for gauging interest, we'll probably post more about this if anyone's interested (meaning we're not gonna straight up add anyone right here)

I'm just gonna say right now that I can't pay you and probably won't ever be able to lol... it's definitely a bit of work, but I find it rewarding. We're looking for an autoromantic who can answer questions, and just keep on the lookout in general. Maybe like 20 minutes a day, but we won't get mad at you as long as you're doing something. We'd probably just take people on for a little and then have a discussion about whether they want to join the team. If people are interested, us current mods will think about how we'll choose team members. We were honestly just thinking we'd probably just have random choosing or like have a post later and choose the first few people... Like idk, you are all amazing!!! I would add all of you, but having a huge mod team could also get tedious, so I might just resort to being random..... if anyone actually wants to do it lol

By being here, you're already doing so much for our community and I really couldn't ask for more because you are all helping so much!! But that said, if you do want to try helping in a different way, consider joining our mod team :) we're very friendly!!! But we're all kinda busy all the time lol... So yeah, also if you're busy a lot it's still workable ish if you can give a bit of time. Hopefully as we add more team members the work will be less...

As our community grows, I feel that it's increasingly important to have more surveillance, just in case. Anyways, please comment if you're interested!!

In the time since I realized I was autoromantic, I feel like I've had some personality changes (unrelated to figuring it out, just from traumatic experiences). For a while I found it really hard because I lost a lot of the things I used to specifically love about myself. This was really devastating for me and made me question whether I was still even autoromantic. I still loved myself somewhat, but much less. My feelings and some of my old self have slowly been coming back, but I'm still nowhere near where I was before. Also, for many months after the change, I was intensely grieving the "loss" of my former self. Like, seriously grieving. Honestly, I still am grieving a lot but it's really hard to talk to others about, because I've lost something mostly intangible to them. I was wondering if you guys had any advice or just anything at all to say about this. I'd just honestly love to hear more perspectives

Well, I already have posted here but I'm 14M autorose, and the question is that, I love myself A LOT, but there's no romance lately, it is like the passion has gone because my surroundings are more annoying and I have been dealing with a lot of problems, even though I'm THE BEST BOYFRIEND in the question of supporting me, being kind, etc.

But I want romance too, and, I simply haven't acted as my boyfriend lately in this question, like, I kiss myself sometimes for "routine" but, not even a passioned kiss, just simple ones, is just like my relationship with myself has ended up becoming routine lately, and, I'd like to go out on dates, but, besides having no time, I also don't know how and where to go besides my routine points (school and gym) I know that everything can be a date if you see it as one, but is kind of I cannot feel everything as a "date" as before, it has been being a really annoying time, because I love myself a lot, but even though I can't give myself the best of my love, and end up wasting my time and doing things that I don't want due this and the ambient.

i think i like other people too as well
