/u/puzzledllama02 on As aces are we still ‘gay’?

No. I don't see myself as queer, gay, or LGBT. June 03, 2023 at 12:23AM

My exes are still in love with me and I don’t know what to do

Three of my exes are still in love with me and I have no idea what to do. One of them, who I will call Green I dated less than a year ago. And even after we broke up we stayed good friends and they’ve never had a problem with any of my other exes or partners. They were super sweet, and always felt open with me and I always felt comfortable with them. Then there’s Purple, who I dated after Green, who I immediately had a connection with and we dated for 7 months, but I never felt like he loved me even when he told me he did. He had depression episode lasting about 3 months due to something that had happened over the school year, and even then I was incredibly supportive and made sure he was doing okay. After some time he broke up with me because he didn’t feel anything for me, and he didn’t want to hurt me. So I took the time to try and move on and just focus on myself, when my best friend introduced me to her friend, who we’ll call Blue. Blue happened to be my type, check all the boxes

Why did he suddenly stop interacting with me?

Ok pls be kind to me bc ik i might sound delusional but i’m gonna be honest abt how i feel 😭 A few months back i met up with this guy from a dating app. It was both of our first time meeting someone from an app (his acc was labeled with “new here” and from my perspective, we got along really well. He seemed shy/nervous at first (he stuttered a bit when answering my initial questions) but i felt like he loosened up as we talked more because he got comfy and more confident. This guy also hardly broke eye contact, every time i spoke he really /looked/ at me and listened to me and understood me. Im usually bad with eye contact but with him i could keep looking at his eyes for a long time, smth i havent experienced before Take note we were both travelling, and in a foreign country weve never been to before. So we walked around til midnight seeing different sites and before parting ways, he asked for my instagram and suggested we meet up in another city, since by chance we were both goin

/u/Ok_Obligation_1758 on Being Ace (in my experience) is thinking you have a crush on someone, when really you just want to become closer friends with them and hang out with them more than normal (not in a romantic way though)

That may be your experience, which is great for you, but a lot of asexuals do have romantic feelings and relationships that don’t involve sex (or a very limited amount of it.) June 02, 2023 at 11:13PM

/u/United-Cow-563 on I'd be interested to know some answers

Easy! Quality time not making the sex. You know, walking and talking (walkie-talkie). The part where you put in the effort to have a good relationship. Encouraging others to pursue their goals/dreams being empathetic sharing interests/discovering interests the other never thought about pursuing Basic shit like that is infinitely more enjoyable than a series of exercises, involving planking, for 7 minutes or less.
