So I always thought that I was asexual (or gray maybe), but not aromantic, because I always wanted a romantic relationship. But I guess that's wrong, because aromantic doesn't mean "not wanting a romantic relationship" but rather "not having romantic feelings towards other people", right?
Now I found the term "fictosexual/fictoromantic" and that's exactly how I feel. I've only ever fallen in love or been attracted to fictional characters. I've had a few relationships with real people and some were even good, but it never felt quite right. I don't think I've ever been in love with any of my ex boyfriends.
So I'm kinda confused now. I guess, fictosexual and fictoromantic are the terms that best describe my feelings. But does that mean I'm not aro/ace? Because technically I do feel romantic and sexual attraction, just not towards real people. But I've also seen fictosexual as a microlabel under the umbrella of asexuality, so I'm confused now.
Also, as I said in the beginning, I really want a real life romantic relationship. But apparently I can't fall in love with real people. Seems like an impossible problem. Anyone else feel that way?

DFR Lab sent the image through Microsoft Azure's Face Verification program and found that it was "highly unlikely" that the person in the second photo was the same as the first woman. The fact-checker Logically AI also found the claim to be false. The woman, Olena Kurilo, was also captured in a video after the airstrike and shown to have the injuries. I want a secure messaging app, should I use Telegram? In December 2021, Sebi officials had conducted a search and seizure operation at the premises of certain persons carrying out similar manipulative activities through Telegram channels. If you initiate a Secret Chat, however, then these communications are end-to-end encrypted and are tied to the device you are using. That means it’s less convenient to access them across multiple platforms, but you are at far less risk of snooping. Back in the day, Secret Chats received some praise from the EFF, but the fact that its standard system isn’t as secure earned it some criticism. If you’re looking for something that is considered more reliable by privacy advocates, then Signal is the EFF’s preferred platform, although that too is not without some caveats. Telegram, which does little policing of its content, has also became a hub for Russian propaganda and misinformation. Many pro-Kremlin channels have become popular, alongside accounts of journalists and other independent observers.
