Roses are Red, I ask as a formality Why is this in r/Asexuality ? January 18, 2021 at 12:06AM

absolutely! this is incredibly valid and homoromantic is a word. even if it weren’t a word, it wouldn’t matter because if it makes you feel comfortable, that’s what is important! sincerely, a panromantic asexual 🖤🤍💜 January 18, 2021 at 12:06AM

aaaAAAA I LOVE IT! January 18, 2021 at 12:05AM

Right? I stared at this thing for a solid six minutes and I still can't figure it out January 18, 2021 at 12:02AM

A dancer idk where the slide thing would even be considered January 17, 2021 at 11:55PM

Just break up with him. Not becouse he's sex repulsed but becouse he literally doesn't react when you're hysterically crying. Train goes chooo chooo January 17, 2021 at 11:51PM

LOL that was my logic for the three years I thought I was bi XD January 17, 2021 at 11:42PM

4 hours would be great for me tbh January 17, 2021 at 11:41PM

Well I mean, people like to talk about themselves. It's possible they are just sharing and wanting you to hear them, too. Try enthusiastically listening to them share their experience and telling them that is really cool. Then if they tell you again, and again, say "Yea you told me that." If you aren't the one bringing it up and they keep doing so, try "I think we have covered this guys, no new information to share. Maybe you need some therapy to get it all off your chest and talk about your masturbation until you can change the subject." January 17, 2021 at 11:41PM

That's a good way of putting it. I feel the same way about my asexuality as well. January 17, 2021 at 11:40PM

Awesome story dude, honestly feels more inspirational than braggy, you definitely did not come off too strongly. Glad you met your perfect match January 17, 2021 at 11:34PM

yeah that's what I meant January 17, 2021 at 11:31PM

I don’t think so, no. Sexual attraction is seeing someone and wanting to engage in sexual activity with them. It depends on the person, not the action. Arousal is seeing or engaging in activity and wanting more sexual activity. It depends on the action, not the person. You’re not dirty or invalid for experiencing arousal. It’s a normal part of life, even for aces. Aces can still feel arousal, want sex, actually have sex, masturbate, and loads of other stuff! It just means you don’t see a person and want to have sex with them. January 17, 2021 at 11:31PM

I thought I was Demi and would find “the one” January 17, 2021 at 11:23PM

I don't get this argument, you wouldn't rave about how great a feeling you get from a 5K is in front of a person who can't walk so why treat ace people any different. Everyone deserves a little respect, and no-one should have to talk about anything that makes them uncomfortable January 17, 2021 at 11:23PM

Twinsies lmao January 17, 2021 at 11:20PM

So I this is random but whenever I feel sad, I put on music I love (usually an 80s playlist) and lie on the ground with my eyes closed and let time pass. The time most people in a relationship spend doing nothing productive whatsoever is the time they're together, so it's important to have time where you do nothing that'll benefit anyone else. That might just be me tho, if this works then let me know. As a sex-repulsed ace I understand the struggle. The reason I suggest this is because for some reason if I'm depressed and put my mind off of it with a book or TV show, I finish it and am then just depressed again but the music thing doesn't have that effect for me. I could just be weird tho ://// January 17, 2021 at 11:18PM

This isn't advice, but I'm just sharing with you how I my feelings have changed. As a middle-aged person I have lots of friends that are married. These people... are not soulmates living happily ever after. Everyone has the choice to either stay together even though it sucks a lot of the time, or split because it sucks a lot of the time. I have chose to split twice. I don't have it in me. The great majority of people that stay together are just making a very hard choice to do so, for personal reasons. They have joy, but they have lots of sorrow and stress, too. Romance is absolutely wonderful but it is not something that will last happily ever once you find the right person. It is a rare sheer dumb luck when that happens. It's not the norm. You aren't going to miss out on it because you are ace. You'll miss out on it because it's not real for most people. Editing to add that my point is, you absolutely can have a long term forever relationship as an ace pe

Hope Ur doin ok m8 but remember not long til the moving out option, I know u can get there January 17, 2021 at 11:16PM

Love this, I'm kinda sex-repulsed but sex-positive/indifferent aces are overlooked wayyyy to often and posts like this are important January 17, 2021 at 11:09PM
