Is Aoi aromantic? Like he I thought he was a jerk at the beginning and although I still don’t approve of his method, I feel the reason he was so chill with this was that he loves everyone equally and doesn’t have any bond to someone that makes them special. They’re all his friends and he loves them but that’s it.

    that's feasible. his "love" is more akin to sibling or parental love, but he doesn't shy from sexual endeavours, so maybe he's just aromantic and not an ace.

    Bro, I’m aromantic and I wouldn’t pull bs like that. You don’t bet SOMEONE ELSE’S virginity without their consent. That’s just full on wrong. Seriously tho, wtf, him being aro doesn’t mean he can be an asshat of a human.

    Im pretty sure it's just who he is as a person. I find myself quite similar to him in some ways; I feel good when I give someone love and I feel good when I receive love, but it's not like it's only with one person. I wouldn't call it parental love, I'd say it's actually romantic love but because of the lack of love for ourselves and not necessarily understanding of "empathy" (I don't know what to call it) and the usual love it turns out quite... well, fucked up. This kind of love seems shallow and, well, *is* but it's also the way we understand it and feel it.

    In any way it doesn't excuse the fact that he was a manipulative asshole of course.

    I wouldn't label him in any way, because we don't know what's necessarily going inside his head and the gender he's attracted to. I'd leave it at him being not necessarily mentally well.

    Yeah, my main issue was the fact that he offered someone else’s virginity like it was no big deal. The biggest no-no, and if I ever met someone like that in real life, I would slap them 50 times over, until they started thinking straight.

    yeah, I understand that, that's why I admitted to him behaving like a manipulative asshole. I just wanted to explain the way he talked about love in the last chapter ^^

    True, I wouldn’t call him ace or aromantic though since I’m aromantic, and he seems to love everyone equally to the point that he can’t really love someone, whereas an aromantic person just doesn’t feel the feeling of love in the first place XD (not that big of a deal tho. I can still feel like love for my family and friends, just not in a romantic light towards real people. Tbh, I’m fine with it since I wouldn’t want to be in a relationship lol)

    Exactly; that's why I suggested to not label him as "a";
    he just loves and likes being loved in return but not necessarily connects love with relationship and rather likes giving other people an equal amount of it

    Don’t get me wrong, I think that was a dick move and I fully put that on him and not his sexuality. I only meant it in the general sense where he doesn’t seem to love anyone more than another.

    That makes sense lol, however, I wouldn’t really call him aromantic since he does feel love, but for everyone equally so nobody is basically more special than the other.
