I can help with that one! Similar to how asexuals don't feel sexual attraction, aromantics don't feel romantic love. It's important to remember that aromantic people can still cherish friendships and other relationships, but their interest isn't in romance. Sometimes people will be asexual but still feel romantic love (hi, hello! it's me! I'm asexual and gay married!) A tricky position societally speaking is when people DO have sexual attraction but do not feel romantic attraction. The reason I bring this up is because oftentimes aromantic people who are allosexual (experience sexual attraction) are considered to be heartless and cruel for not being romantically involved.

However, as some others have said, it sort of feels to me that this is on accident and maybe they didn't really intend for him to be aromantic? It certainly seems weird for him to be a "romance" option if he's aro. That's not to say being aromantic is an inherently callous or bad thing, but it's just weird the way it's written and presented I guess?
Thanks!
