For example, yesterday I was getting my dreads retwisted, my hair lined up, and my beard trimmed at the beauty salon. My beautician/loc specialist and her coworkers complemented me on my appearance multiple times. I said “thank you” after each response and smiled. Last evening, I replayed that event several times in my head before going to sleep. It’s still on my mind today, and I was wondering if I should have said something else other than “thank you”. I seldom get comments on my appearance in public, even though I’ve been told multiple times throughout my life that I’m a handsome man from friends and family. If I were walking down the street and a woman said I was handsome, how should I respond?

If someone is not having sex with their partner ( or being intimate in some way), they are in a friendship You seem like your heart is in the right place, but are you seriously in the asexuality sub saying that asexual people who feel they are in a committed romantic relationship, but who aren't having sex (or other "intimacies") should recategorize their relationship as a friendship? in your worldview would two asexuals who love each other very much and get married, raise kids, buy a house, a dog, cat, lizard, fish, etc, still have to qualify their relationship as friends and not partners because nobody's getting off on the regular? I mean, you're entitled to your opinion but maybe read up a little before bringing that opinion here? Many of us come to r/asexuality because it's one of the few places we can go to escape having these sorts of judgments leveled at us. February 03, 2022 at 11:34PM

I would at least give it a try! I think I would be more confident in a throuple than a completely open relationship, because I would be afraid that they might emotionally connect with someone who they can have sex with, and want to be monogamous with that person. If there are three of us in a dedicated relationship, that seems a little more stable long term. I can love two people romantically! February 03, 2022 at 11:30PM
