/u/Fluid_Scene_1880 on I hate having to repeatedly explain what asexuality means

If I gather all explanations I read I could pass as ace, but I am not considering myself ace) that’s the difficulty) March 30, 2023 at 12:11AM

/u/DavidBehave01 on Is an open relationship the only way to solve issues in an asexual-allosexual couple?

Yes however the person I've been replying to is not. March 30, 2023 at 12:08AM

Am I being played/used?

Sorry sorry sorry for the long paragraphs I (F) met this guy through a mutual friend of ours early November. He came out of a 10 year relationship about 3-ish years ago, didn't date much especially with COVID and all that crap. The first time we hung out was more to meet and get to know each other, not even as a date. It was amazing, we hit it off immediately. Then he asked me out again. We went on more than 5 dates, gradually got more attracted to each other, cuddled here and there tho nothing sexual. His texting pattern got worse by time. I guess that's the honeymoon effect wearing off, no biggie. (he said he's a bad texter and everyone knows that, our friend even asked me once why wasn't he replying for 3 days) He admitted that he really likes me, really attracted to me and whatnot. He used to mention "if you were to be my gf... [-]" so I guess a relationship was possible. We had that talk once, at the start, if we were to ever be in a relationship. Tho

How to not be afraid of rejection? I [27F] am unable to feel attraction to anyone anymore because I’ve been crushed by every crush I’ve ever had.

Every crush I’ve ever had has led to disappointment and feelings of regret over having wasted my time in liking someone. The older I get, the rarer the likelihood of me developing feelings for someone. I’ve also met a lot fewer guys after college and after I started working remotely due to the pandemic. I have a bad habit of crushing on older men in higher positions and they’re usually not single anyway. I’m naturally pretty introverted and like to be chased. I also don’t seem to have a type - the only commonalities have been white, older male who’s relatively intelligent and pays attention to me. I’m turning 28 in a few months and I’m still a virgin! Freaking out since I want marriage and kids. I’m having trouble with online dating because I can’t seem to feel attraction towards the men I meet. I also feel apathetic towards men in general because I’ve been disappointed every time and think I eventually will be disappointed. Also I like my freedom. Submitted March 30, 2023 at

/u/FiaMadison on Difference between libido and sexual attraction

So, to me that's you being sex positive. That's it. I am an allo possibly demi because I have a very low libedo and have to have genuine feelings for my mate. But I do only imagine my mate doing these things to me...but maybe that's a demi thing. I don't do it with strangers. I only want my bae. March 29, 2023 at 10:53PM

/u/crazycreaturess on Are asexual people more likely to be asexual?

I thought my brain was malfunctioning while trying to read that 😂 But I’d say it’s pretty likely. There does seem to be an unusual amount of asexuals who identify as asexual. March 29, 2023 at 10:52PM
