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.
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?
