So these are two things that people seem to get confused so let's explain what they are first.
Asexuality means having little or no sexual attraction to others.
Aromatic means that you have little or no romantic feelings for someone.
Both of these sit on a spectrum. This means that you could have a different level of asexuality or aromatic than someone else; there is no one way to be these things. People seem to get these confused a lot. Someone who is asexual can still be in a happy relationship that doesn't involve sex and someone who is aromatic can still have sex just without dating. I've heard so many people say that "you are asexual how are you dating someone?" and that isn't how that works at all.
I know there is a debate over whether it should be under LGBTQ+ but even if it does or doesn't, I still wanted to speak my mind over this because it's definitely an important thing. It is one of the labels that people misunderstand which can create issues for many people from that. Being asexual or aromatic shouldn't be something you have to be ashamed of at all. It's a normal thing that people experience and I personally would never judge anyone for that and the people who do aren't fair. Stay strong okay? If someone makes fun of you for these labels then they aren't a real friend.
