Aromantic: means that an identifying person does not feel romantic attraction. Might not believe in romance, only everything else in between. Including, casual bonding activities. (Yeah, it's not all about.. you know.. nature doing its thing.)

Does that mean, no movies, no restaurants trips and etc? No actually: because an aromantic person may go to the movies, or anywhere with a friend or their family casually.

They can still go to a movie with their partner, or partners. without any romantic ideals, and it might still be considered just as a casual visit to the movies, or they might just casually go to a restaurant to eat some foods together.

It wouldn't be looked at as romantic to the aromantic person in the context. Now to the partner it may vary on how they perceive it but certainly both will see it as quality time together.

The idea of a romantic attraction, while I don't judge others romantic attraction; I hadn't always been directly attached to romantic dates. As I was beginning to discover myself, I went from deciding on being a demi-sexual, to then realizing I was more of an aromantic type. I had been made fun at for not going on dates, but not everyone was arophobic towards me and meet some nice and accepting people, after coming out as aromantic publicly.
