How to understand if I'm aroace or aromantic

Hello everyone. I'm certain that Im aromantic like 99% because I'm not interested in having romantic partner and never was in love. I only wanted to be someone's best friend and special person in my friendships, but when i tried to imagine kisses or something more (i thought i had crush so tried to understand what i felt to them) it felt wrong and made me feel bad cause it's not something i wanted. I also was in relationships several times, but first time it happend when i was kid and i don't remember fully what i felt. And after that somehow i just ended in relationships few times. I guess because i liked the person as a friend and they confessed me and i thought "okay then it might be a crush". But i don't think it was because i didn't want to imagine romantical stuff with them and the only "romantic" thing was that we called eachother with cute names and sayed we in relationships lol

​

But for the ace part, I'm not sure what to think. I used to think that I'm bi/pansexual. But i have low libido and most of time i don't think about these things. I'm not interested in having sex with someone and have never been. Still i can see someone attractive (when i next to someone i find attractive i feel something like a thrill of excitement) and dont want to do anything with it at all. And I've always been put off by the idea of sex. I used to think that something wrong with me and even had paranoia that somehow something i dont remember could happened with me in the past and thats why i felt this way, but it's impossible.

Labeling is important for me because i don't want someone to see me in some romantical / sexual sence. And i also want to understand if something is wrong with me or it's something that happens with some people and is okay
