/u/TrappedMoose on Non-ace ally and future therapist here, how have intersectional identities influenced your lived asexual experience? Details inside. Criticism fully encouraged.

You're 100% welcome here, allies are amazing to see especially when so much of the internet makes it feel as though they're few and far between. I just thought I'd ask if you're at all interested in hearing about experiences of similar sorts with aromanticism? I'm both aro & ace and although I do have some purely ace experiences, a lot of my experiences are heavily tied into the aro side. I don't want to bother sharing them if you don't want to hear them is all 😅 Feel free to say no by the way, I won't be offended or anything :) August 26, 2019 at 12:14AM

My girlfriend and I broke up about 2 weeks ago and i want to get back together but shes moved on

My girlfriend of a year and i broke up after a year and i was okay at first, but 2 weeks later i a heartbroken. I just went away to school yesterday and i missed her so i called her and told her how much i missed her and i wanted to be with her and she shut me down saying she still cares about me but doesnt want to be with me. This has left me incredibly sad and i dont know what to do with myself. I do have friends and people to talk to, i just really miss my intimacy with her, being able to talk about literally anything. I cant stop being sad and i would really appreciate advice on either how to slowly get her back (which i really want so bad) or how to get over her. Thank you to those who respond.

Big Short Dating Strategy work?

Okay. So it's a film (fiction), I get it. But Christian Bale's character in 'The Big Short' bring's out: ' I met my wife through Match dot com. My profile said, "I am a medical student with only one eye, an awkward social manner, and $145,000 in student loans." She wrote back, "You're just what I've been looking for." She meant "honest"...' What are people's thoughts on if this strategy would work? Sure I don't have one eye and I am not a finance whizz like Christian Bale's character, but I do have a well paying job. I am tired of being told that I need to learn how to be a social butterfly. I need to learn how to make friends before I can date...when attempts have only shown me that it both beyond my capability and not something that I particularly want. What if I was just to state 'who' I am honestly, with a bit of humour and as positive a spin as I can muster, on a Match dot com profile (in t...

How do you "get out there" when you feel like you have tried everything?

I (20F) don't have a job (health reasons), live in a small town, don't go to school and don't really have any friends. For about 6 months I was on tinder and got about 5 matches and none of them worked. I had to delete the app because it made me feel bad about myself. I was on other apps at the same time but with the same result. I dont know what I'm supposed to do as you can't really find any hobbies or gatherings in my town. What else should I try?
