Legitimately trying to understand, what is there in being AroAce that someone who is a friend might have issue with? I can understand parents who want grandchildren, or someone seeking a romantic relationship. Im just a bit confused

For me, it’s not really about the “issue” it’s more about how valid they think it is. Your friend might not know what aro/ace is, or they don’t believe it’s a real thing. They might be really aphobic, or say that you haven’t found the right person yet. You never really know. They might not be accepting
