/u/Gaspucci-27 on I don’t know what to say

Yes I am, I don’t really get offended and when I do I get really angry, so I’m not sad, but I am pissed. August 18, 2020 at 11:56PM

/u/traaviee on i think i might be asexual??

thank u! August 18, 2020 at 11:55PM

/u/samuraiseoul on Forgot to post this earlier but there was an asexual secret last week on post secret!

I mean... That is basically the definition of ignorance, to not know something... I get what you're trying to say though. :) August 18, 2020 at 11:55PM

/u/ragtimeholly on So how are stepping on us?

I think OP was saying that because being single isn't a discrimination against asexuals / aromantics; people can be ace or aro and still live with other people or share rent or even be married and allo ppl can be single and live on their own as well : ) August 18, 2020 at 11:53PM

Same!! Also just so you know your flair has a bi flag August 18, 2020 at 11:52PM

/u/h-e-l-pp on Questioning if I'm actually not asexual, and I'm not having a good time :(

That was helpful, thank you! It brought me a peace that I think I really needed. I might still not know what I am, but that's alright for now. August 18, 2020 at 11:51PM

/u/imightnotbeabot_ on I’ve been lied to

Elaborate please August 18, 2020 at 11:51PM

/u/Kir-chan on You're valid! ❤️

I was wondering, how does hetero (or homo) romantic asexuality work? The asexuality part sort of means you are not looking at bodies/genitals, so you have romantic attraction towards what more particularly...? Gendered personalities? If you like women, do you also like assertive, dominant, tomboyish girls? I've gone from identifying as bi to identifying as ace so gender has never really been a factor for me, maybe I'm asking something super obvious to everyone in that case sorry!

/u/OneResponseAsshole on You're valid! ❤️

Thank you! As a lesbian ace I feel like I toe this awkward line where I don’t quite fit right in either community, or that one of my communities sometimes has weird misguided biases against the other community and sometimes I just don’t feel as welcome as I should. Edit: also could somehow tell me how to change my flair? Idk why it’s coming up as bi ace. August 18, 2020 at 11:49PM

Biromantic ace. August 18, 2020 at 11:47PM

/u/MissMewiththatTea on Asexuality is different for everyone, so anyone else feels like it takes forever to explain it properly?

Lol true - but definitely not true of my uncle, so it was a pretty safe bet. August 18, 2020 at 11:46PM

/u/Kir-chan on You're valid! ❤️

Or... you're grey ace? Demi? Sexuality isn't on/off, most oriented allo people also have a drop of bisexuality in the right circumstances in them. August 18, 2020 at 11:45PM

I matched with this guy on Tinder. Right off the bat he was dominating which I was okay with to an extent but he became very demanding. Brief backstory in comments. I wasn’t sure where else to post this.

Men in your 30's...honest thoughts on this...

Had posted elsewhere but want mens honest opinions... I houseshared with a guy 3 years ago. He moved home - 2 hours away. Both work 5/6 day weeks but kept in contact & met each month for dinner, stayed in a nice hotel, spent the next day together etc. Conversation, chemistry were great, he'd always thank me & contact to see if I got home safe etc. He came to visit me a few times, met my family. We had a few minor rows in the 3 years, I always got back in contact first but they were never over big things. He can be stubborn but is also shy, deep & quite sensitive. I made more of an effort to be in contact but he was always happy to meet up etc when I asked. He asked my age when we met but I didn't answer. I knew he was younger and he knew i was older. It didn't come up again. He was single a year & had been hurt, he wasn't looking for a relationship when we met. I never pushed him. This year, he contacted me more, acted like a boyfriend. I knew things ...

Anxious Attachment Style: How do you cope?

Just a question for some of you on here who may have experienced this. I've learned some techniques from therapy that help, but still find myself struggling in some aspects. As most of us are in our 30s, I can only imagine what you might have learned going through your 20's. So my questions are: How does it translate to your love life currently and how has your experience been? Do you disclose this to potential partners? Have you sought help and if not, how do you cope? And the questions I have for those of you that aren't anxiously attached: Is it a complete turn off or do you understand? What have your experiences been?

Breadcrumbing

I moved to a different country earlier this year. I’ve just about settled down and decided to start dating again. About a month ago I (M36) signed up on tinder and met a date (M40). We went on a few dates and it was quickly made clear that he’s not looking for a relationship but would be ok with an intimate friendship. I’m not opposed to that because I don’t believe in monogamy. We spoke a lot about that and seemed to agree with it. However, he’s also a bit of an asexual. After 3 dates we took things further and got intimate (not all the way). I asked for his permission every step of the way as I was trying to understand his limits. He said he didn’t have limits but as we continued I noticed the limits. But that’s beside the point. I also believe that if I’m intimate with some we’d speak regularly and not just when there’s a need to get intimate. I noticed that after our intimate session he spoke less. I told him I liked him and yes I respect his decision to not be in a relationship...
