Sure, the people I’ve ‘friended’ are nice, and I’d want nothing but for them to be happy, but I don’t really have a bond with them. The only people in my life that I’ve bonded with are those I feel romantic attraction to.
So, don’t get me wrong, I have friends and care about them; but love is a powerful word, and one I cannot apply to them.
I’ve theorized its because my parents were abusive, so I never learned how to love those I don’t feel romantically for; [but] how would one even change that? I’m an adult now, and I don’t know if I can learn to have [feelings] for friends.
That’s where the title comes in.
Aplatonic.
