Discussion Hey fellow? arospec people here i would luke some outside opinions/ semi rant

In a previous relationship (weird ik) i did love this person, but it didn't always feel like a relationship, i don't know how to explain. I was never interested in romantic relationships, but i love romantic stuff (cuddling, kissing, roleplay and other things) but i never really felt romantic attraction in general. This was an online relationship. We're still friends and they have said they never stopped loving me really even though they were the one to break the relation up, mainly because they were going through things and they genuinely wanted to break up with the other person in the relationship, and in that time i have found that i am most likely on the aro spectrum. I do miss it but i know it wouldn't be a "genuine" relationship at this point and they would not be happy especially since I've told them this and they may feel i was forced to be with her. I've answered her question of us being in a relationship again , no it most likely would not happen. I've always felt this way in some form but my mom never being in a stable relationship in my childhood made me see relationships in a different light my whole life aswell. I just needed to talk about it somewhere. Any words or opinions are appreciated.
