You dont need public displays of affection to show others how much you love and care for your partner.

This kind of performance has never been of interest to you.

You Think An Overuse Of Pet Names Is Icky

You find that pet names can be too much.

Your partners name isnt Sweetie, Baby, or Honey.

So whats the point of always calling them by some doting and sappy name?

You Get Annoyed By The High Expectations Of Romance

Who said beer and pizza arent romantic?

Why does that person get to define what romance should be?

You find that romance doesnt have to be a big production.

When you do something that is considered romantic it is usually as low key and relaxed as possible.

While sex can be that, it is also so much more.

As an unromantic person, you also find sex to be fun, playful, and quirky.

Sex isnt confined to a king sized bed covered in rose petals.

You struggle to understand why romance has to have such gendered roles.

Why does it matter who pays or who holds the door for whom?

Toxic masculinity has directed gendered roles in relationships for far too long.

You Stress Over Whether Or Not Your Partner Knows You Like Them

Articulating your love can be challenging.

In return, you worry if your partner knows how much you truly care.

You overanalyze how you make your partner feel and whether or not they are happy.

However, you are always in your head because you worry that you sound fake and insincere.

Romance does not come easy to you so you second guess everything.

You like that you’re able to choose how you want to love.

While you face some intimacy struggles in a relationship, you live your life with integrity and authenticity.
