/u/AceEngineer on Mary, mother of Jesus, was married and never had sex. Jesus was probs aro. Anyone who uses a "christian" excuse to invalidate your (a)sexuality is absolutely rediculous, thanks.

Christians: “you should have sex unless it’s to have kids” Aces: ok Christians: “wait no...” May 20, 2020 at 12:10AM

In that case we are gonna need to take it into the lab and examine it to find what ingredients were used. Pretty sure it is a war crime to deprive an asexual of cake recipes. May 20, 2020 at 12:08AM

When you’re asexual but also gluten intolerant so you can’t have cake or garlic bread :( May 20, 2020 at 12:07AM

Chocolate bread sounds good. Not so sure about garlic cake. May 20, 2020 at 12:05AM

/u/daacehueman on hey

im 14 and i figured out im ace the same age as you. your not to young. it's certainly possible that we could just be young, but if the label works you now, you are absolutely allowed to use it. don't rush into a relationship, that's stupid. you have plenty of time to figure out your sexuality and develop a romantic relationship. if you find yourself interested in a romantic relationship with someone, make sure they know that you are(or think you are) asexual. if they pressure you to do anything you aren't comfortable with or ignore or dismiss your sexuality, they don't deserve a relationship with you. i am currently in my first romantic relationship and I've learned that communication is extremely important. if something is wrong in your relationship, talk about it and work together to find a solution. learn to say no, that's also very important. i kinda got off topic sorry. it does sound like your ace. asexual just means the lack of sexual attraction, so y...

That cake looks so good! May 20, 2020 at 12:00AM

/u/Cho0x on My asexuality is not accepted

You have no right to slap someone else's mother in the face. You are the child, you are the one that knows nothing, just as your mother knows more than you. 99% of a caring mother's advice is good for her child. 25% of what a child believes is likely to be correct, only experience and suffering and learning and pure joy can improve that percentage.

/u/Flamebay on My asexuality is not accepted

I agree you should check with the other person first if it’s okay. But there’s lots of people on here who have sexual partners that are okay with them being asexual. And they compromise on things. May 19, 2020 at 11:57PM

I wouldn’t put too much stock in anything the Bible says. She was apparently like 13 when she got pregnant but no one brings that up in sermons. May 19, 2020 at 11:55PM

Ah asexuals, my favorite food. 😂 Jkjk. Fr though I feel this. May 19, 2020 at 11:55PM

When a girl reaches out first

Girl says she's working now and that she'll talk to me later. I say sounds good and don't reach out until I hear from her. Next day, she texts saying good morning 🙂 From a girls point of view, why would she reach out first in this instance? I'm having a hard time based on a majority of our conversations, determining if she's interested or just being friendly.

Advice on FWB

So a friends with benefits situation and here's my prior post: https://www.reddit.com/r/relationship_advice/comments/gkauyn/confused_about_my_fwb_relationship/?ref=share&ref_source=link Everything is still the same. I haven't brought anything up yet and am taking time to really reflect on everything so far. I think the uncertainty comes from points of conversation that happen. We will both say things that seem to elude to feeling more than just this. Little intimate things that just slip. But then it eventually turns into something like, "great sex, what's more to ask for" I'm good with taking things slow, or even putting up boundaries if needed. I can definitely collect myself and walk away as well if it comes to that. I'm just trying to not have any expectations in this situation. Feelings are natural and I get that. I'd just hate to walk away too soon if this more than FWB. And I'd hate to walk away too late and lose a friend. I know we...

What to do on our first date?

I'm taking this girl out of a date tomorrow and I'm not sure what do to. I'm going to take her to Chili's for some dinner but I don't know where else I can take her for entertainment.

Older guys don’t take me seriously because of my age

Why is it that older guys will sleep with me but don’t take me (22F) seriously as a potential partner? I was sleeping with this guy (30M) for a while and we ended up becoming friends. He admitted to me that the reason he wouldn’t date me is because of my age. (I’m not interested in him romantically, I was just wondering about this concept in general and asked him about it.) I know he’s telling the truth. If that’s true, why is it okay to sleep with someone you view as too young? The guy I’m currently dating (26M) told his therapist I’m 23. It’s making me feel insecure about my age. Aren’t I supposed to be so glad to be 22? This has me wishing I was 25 so guys would see me as a person and not a piece of meat. All thoughts and feedback welcome!

Are we together or not?!

I’ve been talking to a guy for over a year. Back in August, we had the “what are we” conversation, and he said he wasn’t ready for a relationship. I told him we could talk again when he was ready. I know that’s a huge red flag and I’m dumb, but he had just come out of a very long and serious relationship when we met, so I wanted to give him time. I’ve been staying at his place during quarantine (2 months now). Spending 24/7 with each other. We’ve both met each other’s families, so I’d say we’re pretty serious. BUT, we have never called each other bf/gf. I want to have the conversation but I’m too scared to bring it up since I was shot down the first time around. How should I go about bringing it up? I also want to tell him I love him.. is that going to seem crazy? Should I have the bf/gf talk first? Submitted May 20, 2020 at 12:18AM I’ve been talking to a guy for over a year.

I'm a 26 year old male, autistic, and I've never dated. I've kept numbers about who I talk to what happened to try to figure out what I'm doing wrong. Can anyone help?

I'm autistic. I work for a major tech company. I make a lot of money and hired multiple personal stylists. Although I always hate the clothes they give me, I like a t-shirt and sweatpants and nothing more, I still wear them because they seem to know what they're talking about. I also see a therapist and a personal fitness instructor once a month + lift on my own time. I've had professional photographers take my picture for dating websites. About a year ago I decided that I was going to go super hard and try really hard, harder than I did in high school and college, to get a date. These are the results from those attempts. https://imgur.com/a/C40eSV6 The first diagram shows people I've met in the past year who were women in my age range (20-35 about) who I knew on a first name basis. All the people I asked out were rejections which I didn't record. I consider 'still talking to' texting more than once a week. I use my computer to talk to people so I'm...

I am sad.

I’m mourning the loss of a love I could have had. I’m so sad. And there’s no one I can tell. It’s really all my fault it never happened. And now, it never will.

I don't believe in love

I don't think I'm cut out for love, I'm not good enough for anybody. Submitted May 20, 2020 at 12:03AM I don't think I'm cut out for love, I'm not good enough for anybody.

Will getting a job help me find love?

I'm in a small town. I know almost everyone but I can't get a job anywhere but here. I got a job at our local store and all I can think is that its going to ruin my chances of finding someone for the whole time I'm working there. I'm sick of being alone and I just want someone already I don't want to be alone for 6 months to a year longer. Its already been long enough. Submitted May 20, 2020 at 12:13AM I'm in a small town.

What are good interests to have?

Honestly this just be yourself stuff doesn't work for me. My interests are things I like but that doesn't mean women like them too, making it more difficult to make myself seem interesting to them and seem like an actual worthwhile partner. What are some hobbies I should pick up to improve this aspect of myself? Submitted May 20, 2020 at 12:03AM Honestly this just be yourself stuff doesn't work for me.

We're just friends, I like him but didn't want to come on to him too strong. Did I screw up?

So I'm super embarassed LOL. I'm friends with this guy who lives in a diff country and we've been getting closer recently. I've always had a thing for him but I don't want want him to know, I don't to initiate anything at this time, and don't want to make myself seem desperate. I just want our friendship to keep growing and strengthening over time and just see what happens. So this happened over text. On a recent phone call, he told me he'd send me videos of how he'd been improvising exercise with household objects during the stay-at-home order. So the next day he sent me videos of himself working out, which he hadn't ever done before. He captioned it something like "yup, working hard lol" (rough translation from a diff language) I totally forgot about the premise that he was gonna show me this household object technique. So I just replied saying (rough translation again) "yeah i can tell you've been working hard. -winky ...
