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?

Pavel Durov, Telegram's CEO, is known as "the Russian Mark Zuckerberg," for co-founding VKontakte, which is Russian for "in touch," a Facebook imitator that became the country's most popular social networking site. What distinguishes the app from competitors is its use of what's known as channels: Public or private feeds of photos and videos that can be set up by one person or an organization. The channels have become popular with on-the-ground journalists, aid workers and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who broadcasts on a Telegram channel. The channels can be followed by an unlimited number of people. Unlike Facebook, Twitter and other popular social networks, there is no advertising on Telegram and the flow of information is not driven by an algorithm. This provided opportunity to their linked entities to offload their shares at higher prices and make significant profits at the cost of unsuspecting retail investors. In 2014, Pavel Durov fled the country after allies of the Kremlin took control of the social networking site most know just as VK. Russia's intelligence agency had asked Durov to turn over the data of anti-Kremlin protesters. Durov refused to do so. In this regard, Sebi collaborated with the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to reduce the vulnerability of the securities market to manipulation through misuse of mass communication medium like bulk SMS.
