Noah Czerny I LOVE THIS

no aro.

EYE-
i think if you're the opposite gender it would be no hetero (heterosexual = straight) just as it would be no homo if you were the same gender
*“often i am upset that i cannot fall in love but i guess this avoids the stress of falling out of it”*
the lyrics has so much more meaning now.... I'm stunned
no please I’m stunned aswell 🤯
I’m Aromantic so I always related to that part of the song so I’m so happy that it was actually probably about that feeling of being unable to fall in love the way other people do. It makes me so happy!
THIS MAKES MUCH MORE SENSE NOW
This makes way more sense now
He's so adorable
Y'know, I was at his concert and someone screamed "HOW'S JUNO?????"
He stopped and said "how's Juno? For anyone who doesn't know Juno is my kitty cat."
Everyone awed
How is Juno tho
yeah we wanna know how the FUCK is juno???
omg i think i was there!!!!!!
thats so cute
awwww
Aro ace people need more support honestly.
I'm aro ace, and I always feel kinda lonely because I don't want to have a boyfriend or girlfriend. I mean, it doesn't really bother me, but I feel left out sometimes, y'know?
Well being in love sucks and I understand your struggle but it's better to just not have romantic feelings for people. You should have some friends and be happy with them so I hope you're not as lonely if you do gain more friends or already have some that you love a lot. 🤧🤙🏼
Hi! I have a question I was wondering if you could answer? If it’s too personal no worries tho. Anyway, I was wondering, as an aro ace person, have you ever experienced a “crush”? Like is there a feeling of platonic crushes? I’m not aro or ace so I don’t know and was just thinking about it. Honestly I think the only thing you’d be missing out on is that butterfly feeling when you have a crush. Everything else you can experience platonically. Platonic love. Platonic intimacy. Platonic vulnerability. Passionate friendships. Sounds like a good deal to me! Hahahah. I’m sorry you feel left out, hopefully this comment didn’t make that worse or anything. Have a good day!
Same! I'm also aro/ace and I also feel left out. All of my friends have partners and I don't. I don't even want a partner. I know how ya feel.
Yeah I’m figuring out who I am and I’m pretty sure I’m aro/ace and my friend was talking about how being ace makes absolutely no sense to himself and he was judging it and I was like oh
All your close friends get a girlfriend/boyfriend and you feel alone as fuck and you get sadder thinking that you'll be more alone when they'll have a family

Thank you for the aro part, I recently just came out as aromantic and non-binary yet my mum doesn't really support it and keeps on telling that I'm ''who I was born as'' and it knocked my confidence a bit. Thank you so much 💕
tecnically she's right. you're who you were born as: enby and aro :)
@@sami1503 Had us in the first half, not gonna lie.
i think i’m on the ace spectrum
I can understand you’re situation because mine is very similar. Hopefully things get better!

*Robbie for president*
no he doesn't deserve such stress
JHope Le Happy Flower hi army
I wouldn't wish the stress and hate of politics in such a purehearted human being. I do however, wish everyone or at least MORE people would be like Robbie.
Unfortunately that’s impossible
Robbie for immortal ruler of the universe
I'm not personally aro, but I really REALLY liked what Robbie said about thinking of platonic love and romantic love being on the same level, just different. That's a very nice way to think about it, and was actually very comforting.... I like it
It might sound cheesy but I like to think of platonic and romantic love as 'two different pillars of the temple of Love™" (the temple of love part might be a bit cheesy but-) I think it shows well how one isn't superior to the other, and both are equally important (holds the whole structure up) and while different, still part of the same structure :3
I’m not aro but that part comforts me
Mikolam07 that’s a fun take and it’s a very nice visual but like... aro people function without the romantic pillar, so you don’t really need both as nice as it is for some people to have romantic love. I like to think of it like... idk socks? You can mismatch them just fine (let’s say that’s friendship) but it’s a great bonus for people to have matching pairs (a relationship.) Some people don’t care or like just having mismatched, whereas others REALLY want a matching pair.
That was exactly what I was thinking
It makes me feel better about catching myself at 3 am thinking about someone I dont have a crush on.
So now I know why every single lyric Robbie has ever sung has hit the nail on the head for me... I'm also aromatic/asexual and trans. This guy would be my dream friend. I also have so much platonic love and have even tried to fall in romantic love, but immediately fell out of it, realizing it wasn't real... "Often I am upset that I cannot fall in love but I guess this avoids the stress of falling out of it;" damn, now I know why those lyrics hit so hard.

i know im late :(
I'm asexual and I don't understand how sexual love is considered the next step up after romantic love. People go on a few dates and stuff and are like "finally the dates are over now we can hook up", and fail to appreciate the time you've spent with that person, acting like the only thing it led up to was that.
Also, if you're dating someone, you shouldn't just be their partner, but also their friend. Spending quality time is so important in any relationship. It isn't just all roses and candles, it's having fun!
Lovely
I do agree, your partner is your friend and not just an object. 😖
I personally am not asexual but I totally agree. Sex should not be the main part of the relationship
ghost girl
Me neither but yeah.
Thank you thank you thank you! I feel like this is a good comment I'm bisexual btw!
@@ed-xq5jd I mean, sex is an important part of the relationship but it's not the only part. It really depends from person to person. I don't think I'd be able to hold a relationship with an asexual long term.
⚠️⚠️⚠️ HANNAH IF YOU ARE READING THIS ⚠️⚠️⚠️
You are worth it. Your life is worth living. If your friend make you feel like you aren't enough, YOU. ARE. EVERYTHING. We will always be here for support. We care. I care. Cut that friend off. It might be hard, but you won't regret it. You are amazing.
Personally, I’m gay but I support all sexualities and I’m glad to learn more about beautiful aromatics 🥰

what robbie said about love is really cool to hear, even though i myself don’t fall on the aro spectrum i feel like a lot of people don’t appreciate platonic feelings and act like it’s such a limited relationship. like cuddling w/ homies is the best.

Robbie: *gets a question about a person being sad and suicidal because of a friend*

I'm lesbian, and I think I'm aro.
I like watching others falling in love, but I don't quite....get it emotionally. I've always felt like I belonged in this spectrum, and lately I realize that you don't have to fall in love romantically.
I'm glad you've found yourself.
I’m aro and recently my best friend asked me to date her, knowing I’m aro. I had to reject her and she’s been ghosting me since. This video honestly helped, I can’t stop hating myself for not being able to love her romantically, thanks robbie

5:22 small things really do make the difference when you’re insecure :) i wish everyone knew that something as small as texting first in a conversation can make us happy for an entire week :’) but things like saying hi in a different tone than you usually do can make us feel like we did something to upset you and you hate us ehe
It really is a rollercoaster isn't it, one second you're laughing and having the best time of your life and as soon as they leave, you wonder if they actually hate you.

What is this profile
** viv ** the beauty herself quensadilla
*i just died cuz my heart exploded*
i've been avoiding from talking about this online because i don't know for sure if I'm really aro ace.
1) I never been sexually attracted to anyone so no see someone attractive oo I wanna be *BE* with them
2) I used to be upset for not having a partner as a 12 year old kid because all of my friends are forming rElAtIoNsHiP and I feel left out. pretty sure all of the people I thought I have a crush on is just me admiring their existence and being attracted to their aesthetics. idk for sure but I'm 19 now but I don't get excited about being in a relationship. I love friendship more. and if I did get crushes on people (before, I don't get crushes on people now) it'll only last minimum of 3 days and maximum of 3 months. I dunno, it is how it is
i thought i was aro for a while. I felt sad sometimes looking at others. i just wished i loved someone- I realized that i wasn't aro, I'm just so scared of rejection that I beat my feelings into a ball. i realized that was unhealty and im trying to help myself. ive had a girlfriend since then, and it didnt end well, further sending me into my fear of rejection. Ive gotten a girlfriend that I really like and she is serious about me. Ive learned that I have so much platonic and romantic love to give- I tell all my friends I love them and hug all my friends (haha). i really cherish everyone around me and i make sure they know it.

I don't know if I'm aro, I'm confused and i can relate to this is home
Update: I realized I’m ace, told my boyfriend and broke up with me. Lol
I am late but yeah me too.
That's why it's a spectrum. You might be grey-romantic or demiromantic. I'm personally demiromantic, which just means that I don't feel romantically about a person until I have a strong emotional connection with them first.
fkfjfjf same
Hope things are going well! It took me years to figure out I was aro spec.
@ルビー actually there's a lot of people that fall for others just based on their looks, so far I know both of my sisters are straight and fall in love with random guys they see and haven't even talked to I don't understand why though because I think I might be ace
bless this video
If you ever do another one:
One of my close friends recently told me that she’s had a crush on me ever since we met, but I don’t really like her like that..I want to still be friends with her though
This was commented 3 months ago but I think that if you really don't want a relationship with them then tell them that because you shouldn't have to be in a relationship that you don't want to be in. I also think you should definitely explain that you don't want your friendship to end because of this but you should also expect that they won't be happy and probably very upset or maybe even angry. You should try to understand how they're feeling though.
I just want to say, thank you SO MUCH for talking about aromanticism. As an aromantic person myself, this is so amazing to see, and makes me feel so happy!!! Thank you for helping me become more confident in my orientation!!

God I feel so alone sometimes being on the aro spectrum, especially cause I do want to experience those feelings but I know I can’t and I’m kind of repulsed when those feelings are directed towards me. But I think I’m similar with platonic love, I platonically love my friends so much and I do love hugs and affection, but I associate it a lot with romance sometimes and that’s why I tend to hold back on those actions, out of fear that it will come off as romantic. I think it’s really awesome to see such an incredible songwriter not write about romantic love all the time!
Autumn g This is a big mood. I’m also aromantic and the term for being a repulsed by romance is called apothiromantic. (Which I also identify as). It took me a long time to get comfortable with the idea of doing romantic things but in a platonic way. I got to the point where a friend and I considered us to be platonically dating. But now it’s weird because they are actually dating someone and it feels really strange because I don’t understand romantic relationships
Ah yes me too
I can relate
Yeah I'm not aro but I really wish more of my friends weren't afraid of being seen as gay for hugging.
I can relate. I really really want to experience romantic love but whenever it gets directed to me I just get so so soooo scared of it. The whole concept of it is so happy and nice but it scares me.
i’m a big fan of his music but he’s such an adorable person too! he seems so kind and honest
I like how you take the time to answer people's questions and help them out. Giving advice is nice. You are very wise too.
One word: hair
I've come to grips with my being aromantic for a long time, and the very moment I had made me so unusually happy for some reason. It was as though all the burden of feeling like; this is something people "need" to lead normal lives was lifted, and I viewed myself as a little more whole of a person for it, rather than fractured or incomplete. The knowledge of platonic and romantic love being on the same plane rather than one being greater than the other is truly important, and without it, I'd still be running around confused. Sometimes I get sad watching the world around me turn, the people indulging in things I don't find much interest in, but ultimately that's them, and that's the world. You can't view yourself as glued to this grand scheme where if you don't conform to normalities, you'll be rejected and bounced off the planet. Present yourself proudly as if to say "I know myself/(I'm figuring things out). I wouldn't have you know me, unless you'd like to, but I'm here and there is no removing me, who I am, or how I feel." If you can get that mindset down, you're set for life, and you're living it right.
@@stelladenee
There are a lot of dark places people can go, but the lack of belonging is one we've all been to for one reason or another. Even passed that point of revelation; even when we can officially breathe easier, there's a lot of points in life that generally take that breathe away for better or worse. Rest assured that if you are breathing, you are and will always be valid. Regardless of how bad things get and even well beyond our lifetime, having lived at all *means* something- as corny as that all sounds.
Why do aro ppl look so friendly and wholesome

LOVE YOU SOSOSOSOSO MUCH!!
ive always wanted to sing but my music doesnt really make sense ever. when i heard you play it kinda hit me and you made me realize that its possible. that i can make whatever i want i dont need to follow music norms. thankyou.
When I first heard This Is Home I immediately felt like "wow, somebody else like me exists" because each lyric was like it's own little idea and moment and I could see every one of them in my life. I'm not Aro, but Ace and people either don't know what that is or assume I don't like relationships, love, ect. I found out about Cavetown and I loved the music. All of the sonts in general have such a beautiful pale yellow feel to them, and it just makes me less lonely.
Thanks for talking about aromanticism, I’m asexual and any bit of positivity for our community goes a long way!
@Da Koynul There can be multiple meanings to a word. Asexual also means without sexual feelings or associations. Do your research before calling people out.
Da Koynul Einstein wasn’t even a biologist wtf
Da Koynul lmfao dumbass
Da Koynul asexual also means a lack of sexual attraction
Da Koynul ... you tried
As an aro person, thank you bro
His voice is sooo soothing and dullest and he just makes me cry but I love him and we are so lucky to have some one giving advice to you and at the same time being a lovely singer ❤❤
Lemon wisdom.
The idea of romantic and sexual attraction doesn't interest me in the slightest and that makes me uncomfortable. What makes me even more uncomfortable is when people are like "ohhh she must be gay and just not willing to say it" like no.
if I were a lesbian I would say so, theres no shame in it.
It's something that I feel already separates me from most other people and it hurts even more when people don't legitimately recognize my experiences. Each and every single time I bring it up to people their responses make me feel ashamed about something that a lot of people are going through. Thank you for this video.
Ay. Your experiences and feelings are valid. You're great. I hope you find a way to make peace with the uncomfortable aspects of your person. Its easier said than done, but changing your reactions to things changes how you live. What I did (I'm bi-romantic and people call me a ho or say I'm straight but idealize the gay community because all my friends are gay so I lie to fit in which is a weirdly intelligent and completely incorrsct assumption) was I just accepted that some people just aren't going to understand. It's like when you like an unpopular food and people react in that weird extreme. You dont get ashamed for liking the food because it's food everyone's tastes and experiences are different. Their opinion isn't going to magically change your taste buds, y'know? I sincerely hope you have/find some positive people who do understand or are open to learning and I hope you can get to a slightly better place as far as self love and confidence goes. I believe in you, fam. I may be on the opposite end of the spectrum, but no one deserves to feel ashamed for who they are.
I don't feel ashamed so much as like, everyone treats me like my sexuality and romantic preference is a facade because they think I'm afraid of being gay or something... like what WILD assumption fam. people need to chill, but thank you for your kind words
I’m not asexual but I don’t want to date or anything and I’m at an age where I guess everyone has already lol anyways people claim I’m “bi” and hiding it or I’m lesbian and that’s why I won’t date guys. When in reality I just don’t want to
Heya sweetie, I’m the same and I know what you mean. It’s really tough and when people make jokes and stuff it always makes me feel uncomfortable but i never know how to ask people not to because I feel like I’ll be burdening them. And yeah people always seem to assume that it’s to do with your sexual orientation but like it’s more like the lack of?
But yeah, there’s nothing wrong with you at all, you are valid, you are beautiful, and you are amazing
💜🖤 good luck honey
thank you so much

Didn't know what being aro was before this video. Thanks for telling me. Found out I'm not weird or broken I'm just aromantic. Again, thank you very much for telling me. I really appreciate it.
Whenever I'm feeling down, I come back to this segment. I know it's an older clip, but it soothes me.
