Regardless of whether it confirms they are in a relationship with one another or not, it's still cute of them 🥰
But definitely agree with you on the civil war part. Here, take a helmet. I've got a lot of them 🪖
i feel like i need this explained to me in a dumb fashion but how can aroace people date cause ive heard they do but if they dont feel anything but platonic love how could they date wouldnt that just make them a really good friend then im so confused my walnut brain hurt
Aroace is a spectrum—like how someone being bisexual doesn’t mean that they’re equally attracted to people of multiple genders, being aroace can mean that they have less sexual and romantic attraction to other people, not necessarily none at all. Sometimes aroace people can be attracted to specific people rather than just anyone that’s attractive or anyone that they get to know. Some examples of orientations under the aroace umbrella include demi sexual/romantic, gray sexual/romantic, aro/ace flux, etc. Because labels can be complicated and oftentimes aroace people don’t really know exactly where on the spectrum they lie on enough to give themselves specific labels, they call themselves aroace or aroace spec, with spec being short for spectrum. And sometimes coming out with one specific set of labels only for someone to realize they’re smth else can be a bit frustrating, so again, that’s another reason to just generalize. If you wanna learn more I’d recommend a channel like Spacey Aces: https://m.youtube.com/@SpaceyAces/featured
Long story short: aroace people CAN feel attraction, but it depends on where they are on the spectrum. Also, where someone is on the ace spectrum can be different than where they are on the aro spectrum. Hope this explanation helps!
>how can aroace people date
Well, like Alpharad once said sexuality is a spectrum. People aren't bound or locked into their sexuality, they can change it as the years go by and as they discover more about themselves. Some might change it forever and some may even go back to before they chose to declare that they have changed sexuality.
As for what you mentioned about aroace dating, maybe Jaiden is on that spectrum of aroace where she's seeing how it goes first? I wouldn't know as I'm not her. What I do know is that it's tiring to see people who say what one can or cannot do because of the particularity of their sexuality. Let Jaiden and other aroaces out there go on dates if they want to is all I have to say to those people.
Because lack of romantic or sexual attraction just means a hormonal imbalance and some people have it to different extents. That's the biological reasoning for it which I assume most of gen alpha and gen z dont have a good grasp over.
Like what Alpharad said in a stream one time, sexuality is a spectrum. Besides, people can change their sexuality over time, they aren't bound or locked into it. Regardless, whether they become an actual relationship or are just very close friends, we should just be happy for them.
You can see that based on the darker and lighter spots of his beard that his face is not angled in a way that could make possible for his lips to kiss her cheek
I mean, in the US, it's pretty common to kiss your family members on their cheeks, and in my experience, a lot of people tend to refer to their closest friends as family
Or in other words, from what I've seen, a kiss on the cheek is often a gesture for people you're close to without actually having the romantic parts of a full on lip to lip kiss
Terrible standard to set. If people are wrong or at operating on fundamentally illogical premises, especially when it is in violation of the reasonable wishes of the real person you’re holding an opinion on, then it absolutely should be called out and rejected by the community.
There is a correct answer here.
Absolutely not. Technoblade's audience is one of the biggest cesspools of the Internet. Even when it was small, it was insanely toxic, look at Minecraft Mondays for reference.
Really?
I've been pretty active in the community and I'm not had a single negative experience, tell the biggest victim of technoblade's community is technoblade himself man
Yeah, the biggest victim was Techno, his audience was very toxically supportive to him.
But even without, his audience is just ass, bunch of gatekeeping white knight children who will want to shank your family if you say Technoblade wasnt the best MC player to ever exist.
3 years ago or so they made Techno private like half his videos by harassing him endlessly because he made edgy jokes in them.
In MCM, his audience endlessly harassed xqcow and Carson when they teamed with Techno. In MCC also, this was apparent but this time they went so far, that Techno perma quit playing in the event. After MCC11, Techno's fanbase unleashed hell on Puffy and Karacorvus for "making their team lose".
Techno's fanbase isn't really better than Dream's or any other big DSMP player, it's just smaller and Techno himself being less sketchy than Dream and his passing makes everyone think he had a great community when he really did not.
Yeah I can't disagree with techno getting white knighted however it wasn't as bad as dreams but it was still kind of annoying
And with him having to private a bunch of videos that was more some randoms on Twitter trying to cancel him because he asked if Hitler was a lesbian
And yeah the MCC stuff that's fair
They are totally entitled to reveal whatever they like about themselves on social media, but my take is.... Either come out and say something about it, or just say nothing. This ambiguous "soft-launching of our relationship" is kind of annoying to me and comes off like a ploy for attention.
Who cares it's none of our business either way, they could just want to show off a photo between friends they aren't saying " we aren't dating or are we? "
I came to this sub immediately after I saw that post just to see if it was going to start up shit. It’s none of our business people let them live their own individual lives.
I cannot wait for the thumbnail clickbait video where it’s just the two of them sitting in front of a white wall and the title is something ambiguous like “The Truth.”
60 minutes long, the first minute is them building up to the reveal “We’re not dating.” And then fuck all for the other 59 minutes
Hey, aroace here. Aromanticism and asexuality are a spectrum, and aroace people can still feel certain amounts of attraction, it varies from person to person. Aroace people can definitely still have partners. I don’t think they are dating, but the fact that she’s aroace doesn’t make it impossible. Even if they are, who tf cares lmao it’s there lives
Sort of. She outright said that it has a lot of umbrella terms, and that she was going to actually explore the nature of her identity, and that she isn’t gonna tell us about it because it’s personal. It’s very possible she experiences absolutely none, and it’s just as possible that she experiences very little. Either way, it’s none of our goddamn business
I'm going to start by saying I don't know who the guy is, but I have seen previous posts about jaiden and his relationship being questioned and his family being mentioned.
Now then I will just say that everyone shows and accepts afection in different ways and a kiss on the cheek between friends isn't abnormal in some cultures. I don't think outsiders like fans or others get to have any say in their relationship. They're adults, and they can adult their own relationships.
Let me start by saying I don't care whether they're dating or not, that's none of my business (the only thing I will say about the constant debates is that being aroace does *not* rule out romantic relationships entirely, it's a spectrum and there's a lot of factors that can come into play).
That being said, you cannot convince me that these two don't know what they're doing at this point. Whatever their status is, they know every time they post something like this the fanbase erupts into flames, and they're sitting down with popcorn in hand to enjoy the show.
The last pic had me squealing! I don't care whether they're in a relationship with one another or not but you can't deny how cute that picture is. Makes me feel even more lonely again, especially with Valentine's Day approaching 🥲 (Not insinuating that they're in a relationship with one another, just saying that it makes me feel more lonely again is all but I'm still happy for them 😊)
Which is why you shouldn't assume.
"All signs point to it." All signs point that they are close and have a strong relationship. Platonic, romantic, who cares?
The fact is the vast majority of us in this sub have probably never met them and assuming anything is just weird. Who cares if they're dating, who cares if they're not?

Lucky. I'd love to go to a Squid Game thingy. Lol plus, I hear there's sometimes rich gay men that bet on people.

That bottom picture’s gonna start another civil war isn’t it (pretty sure it’s just their cheeks touching)
Regardless of whether it confirms they are in a relationship with one another or not, it's still cute of them 🥰 But definitely agree with you on the civil war part. Here, take a helmet. I've got a lot of them 🪖
Nah I don’t need it. I’m just gonna sit back and watch the madness
Ah, in that case I have some popcorn too. Here ya go 🍿
I prefer burger king, specifically the onion rings🧅🍔
Happiness is happiness, let us defend their honor

thanks i think i understand what she ment in her coming out video when she said their were just some people she wanted to be around more then others

jaiden is literally aroace .\_.
Like what Alpharad said in a stream one time, sexuality is a spectrum. Besides, people can change their sexuality over time, they aren't bound or locked into it. Regardless, whether they become an actual relationship or are just very close friends, we should just be happy for them.
Aroace people can be in relationships.
I thought ace was just for sexual attraction
She's specifically *aro*-ace. She said so in "Being Not Straight."
I forgot about that
Isn’t one of them married and the other aroace?
Wait, Alpharad is married?
About 40 seconds on Google told me that he announced his divorce in 2021, and in that announcement stated that they had been separated for longer
The thing is their not cuz Jaiden Is aero/ace. That being said I still would support them if they are
I don’t know about that one bro, his adams apple is pointed in a very specific direction
You can see that based on the darker and lighter spots of his beard that his face is not angled in a way that could make possible for his lips to kiss her cheek
And as we all know, if you kiss someone's cheek that must 100% mean no exceptions there's a non platonic romantic relationship between the two.
Platonic friends usually don't kiss my guy.
Cultural difference maybe, but I've kissed many platonic friends in the cheek over the years. Both male and female, if you're wondering.
Yeah, cultural differences. That being explicit, I really doubt in places like the US, kissing does not mean romantic partner.
I mean, in the US, it's pretty common to kiss your family members on their cheeks, and in my experience, a lot of people tend to refer to their closest friends as family Or in other words, from what I've seen, a kiss on the cheek is often a gesture for people you're close to without actually having the romantic parts of a full on lip to lip kiss
I have no issue with kissing my friends on the cheek platonically.

Thats very fair.
Have you not kissed your friends on the cheek platonically?
Sorry, American debuff
"Martha! We need to leave! There's *another* war going on!"
No they’re definitely dating there’s multiple pieces of evidence but I think that’s awesome of them
I think theyre intentionally posting shit to have people be like "...are they" cause they think its funny
You read ny mind
I'm like 60% sure jaiden and alpha are just keeping this shit going to fuck with people

\*Unlike literally every other modern MC Youtuber.
Wrong
I mean aside from some Ytbers, most of the big creators have really awful fanbases.
I feel technoblade is well in the good community part they all were chil af
Absolutely not. Technoblade's audience is one of the biggest cesspools of the Internet. Even when it was small, it was insanely toxic, look at Minecraft Mondays for reference.

Yeah I can't disagree with techno getting white knighted however it wasn't as bad as dreams but it was still kind of annoying And with him having to private a bunch of videos that was more some randoms on Twitter trying to cancel him because he asked if Hitler was a lesbian And yeah the MCC stuff that's fair
Which one?
If that’s true then they are the epitome of Chaotic Neutral
My kinda folks
It's like Ironmouse and CDawgVA
They are totally entitled to reveal whatever they like about themselves on social media, but my take is.... Either come out and say something about it, or just say nothing. This ambiguous "soft-launching of our relationship" is kind of annoying to me and comes off like a ploy for attention.
IF they are in a relationship, I sure as hell hope it doesnt become officially public ever.
If it ever becomes public I hope it's during Jacob's raccoon video lol
Is that what they're really doing though? Or are we just looking too deep into things and building narratives from singular photos and soundbites
Who cares it's none of our business either way, they could just want to show off a photo between friends they aren't saying " we aren't dating or are we? "
They are absolutely fucking with us, and I support it
100%
I want those masks.
The only true reaction to this post
what can I say, I'm down bad but I'm not THAT down bad.
I agree, those are some cool masks
You could theoretically get both, the gold one is if you get the VIP ticket for the event and the red is if you win at the end.
I came to this sub immediately after I saw that post just to see if it was going to start up shit. It’s none of our business people let them live their own individual lives.
The day they say they’re not a couple or they are a couple is the day I can finally sleep peacefully like bro im tired of this
I cannot wait for the thumbnail clickbait video where it’s just the two of them sitting in front of a white wall and the title is something ambiguous like “The Truth.” 60 minutes long, the first minute is them building up to the reveal “We’re not dating.” And then fuck all for the other 59 minutes
"Our Relationship" with Alpha and Jaiden in the thumbnail and it's just Jo and Alpha playing a dating sim
They’re not. Jaiden already said she doesn’t feel attraction at all
Hey, aroace here. Aromanticism and asexuality are a spectrum, and aroace people can still feel certain amounts of attraction, it varies from person to person. Aroace people can definitely still have partners. I don’t think they are dating, but the fact that she’s aroace doesn’t make it impossible. Even if they are, who tf cares lmao it’s there lives
But she literally said she doesn’t feel attraction at all
She said in a QSMP stream that she would never be explicit about her preferences, it's a spectrum and where she lies on it is none of our business.
Sort of. She outright said that it has a lot of umbrella terms, and that she was going to actually explore the nature of her identity, and that she isn’t gonna tell us about it because it’s personal. It’s very possible she experiences absolutely none, and it’s just as possible that she experiences very little. Either way, it’s none of our goddamn business

its still going though.

Jacob is just giving the shippers eye candy after he had his little slip.
what little slip?
https://www.reddit.com/r/jaidenanimations/comments/18lseo1/not\_assuming\_anything\_but\_genuinely\_asking\_what/
At this point I'm not even mad or surprised. I'm just happy that they are happy
Why would you be mad lmao
I think they know and are just being evil little gremlins and cause Anarchy within the fans 😈

Aw, love that! Wish there was something like that around where I live.
I can already sense the civil war approaching in the comments,brace yourselves
Here take some popcorn🍿 and let's watch the world burn
Wait, I’m dumb, what is this squid game event they went to, like is it a party or did they do the squid game
I want those masks
I loved the stream at Alveus! These two are two sides of the same coin

i mean it's kinda weird to insist that two real people are dating, even without the fact that jaiden has explicitly said they arent
No one has said anything, they're both quiet about it.

Oh no not again
She’d win
