    Well, I guess it feels more like, all I have to offer is friendship with intimacy. But not that I don't want to. What I mean to say is: Is not being (or not knowing how to be) a romantic type the same a someone who is aromantic?

    You're on to something here.

    Can a relationship even be considered a relationship if it is just friends? If it can, please explain how that works. I'm not pulling your leg here, I really want to know.

    Also, is sex a confirmation of a relationship or just an added bonus?

    I know I just answered your questions with questions. But that's why I'm here on no stupid questions.

  • Dating is odd to me. I do not really know what my motivations are. If I actually find someone. What then? What will we do? How different will our relationship be from a regular friendship (besides you know what). And should it be? Should you be wanting to do other things with your SO then a very good friend? What I'm getting at is, have you ever thought to someone: "They don't really want a relationship they just want a one particular friend with benefits." I don't know if I'm rambling over here. But I'm really having difficulty digesting this one. Edit: The reason I ask is because I'm thinking to start dating again but I don't know my end goal.

    For reasons I may not disclose freely on the internet. I am going to celebrate new years eve this year by myself. Does anyone know of ways to solitarily celebrate new years eve? Note: Englisch is not my first language Edit: Thank you all so much for the responses. I ended up making it a good movie night, and watched the count down on tv. Along with some retro video games, plus pizza. All things considered it was a night well spent!
