Did I feel anything during my first kiss?

I'm asexual aromantic, but didn't quiet know about it back then - thought I might be a late bloomer, or whatever. So, since that's said, I can tell you about my first kiss.
It was when a guy came up to me, saying he fell in love with me. I didn't know what to do, so I gave in when he asked me out on a date. After the movie we went to, he pushed a kiss on me and I happened to return it, cause I thought it might get better. But I realised soon enough, that it felt only disgusting, since I didn't feel anything, his cavern felt cold and tasted of cigarette smoke. I was about to puke, to be honest.
So I ended it and that's how it went ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I don't want to change nor will myself to be something else but understand myself from every aspect

just because we r the way we r even if this is how we r born does not mean we don't deserve happiness in any way or form

and i personally am not looking for sex and sex is not everything esp in a relationship

there is more to life and I know I am a aromatic by looking at myself from different ways
and understand whats missing even now I am still processing all that I learn

I am sorry u feel that my opinion was off but know I am sure of myself and I was just sharing my experience but not telling u what to do or change urself

An aromantic is a person who experiences little or no romantic attraction to others. Where romantic people have an emotional need to be with another person in a romantic relationship, aromantics are often satisfied with friendships and other non-romantic relationships. What distinguishes romantic relationships from a non-romantic relationships can vary diversely, but often includes physical connection (holding hands, cuddling, etc.) The aromantic attribute is usually considered to be innate and not a personal choice, just as the lack of sexual attraction is innate to asexuals. It is important to note that aromantics do not lack emotional/personal connection, but simply have no instinctual need to develop connections of a romantic nature. Aromantics can have needs for just as much empathetic support as romantics, but these needs can be fulfilled in a platonic way.

It is possible for an aromantic individual to be involved in, and enjoy, a devoted relationship with another person, but these relations are often closer friendships, naturally reflecting the closeness of the two individuals and not a purposely initiated monogamous separation as is often found in romantic couples. Aromantics may experience squishes which are the aromantic or platonic equivalent of a romantic crush. When an aromatic get's into a relationship that's more than friends - but less than romantic - that is known as a queerplatonic relationship.

Like all romantic identities aromatics can be of any sexual orientation

i am aromantic I found out last year while reading an article online one thing is sure u don't fall in love it will take a person with really strong impact to move u and they say u can be involved in relationships but it don't sound promising

I been this way all my life I can say u can change when u try to figure out ur emotions and life up to now

my life have a lot of people that made me think that love is worthless and I think this play a part how we think
if u have things that happen that made u this way try a different approach in life
like meditate, listening to music u like, exercise change ur prospective in life

I am still working on me so I'm no expert lol
I will be 30 soon so that goes to show but I have a feeling u can do better than me

good luck

I don't think you can "change" the way you were born - or even should it.
I get the chills, only THINKING about being in a relationship. I don't love.
I don't believe that love is worthless - and that's not what being aromantic is about.
I would have to force myself into a false love, and that can't be the right way, in my opinion.

Maybe you're just not actually aromantic, but someone who never loved but could. I don't know how to explain ... but let's say that I feel, that I'm not able to love anyone like "that". I feel already caged when I think about a relationship, in addition, I don't want sex either.
So what's the point in being in love, for the sake of being in love?
