/u/AceOfManyYears on Questioning, and wondering if anyone else experiences this

Aces can experience arousal (have a libido). You’re correct that arousal and attraction are not the same thing. February 17, 2021 at 11:59PM

/u/Neek0TheCat on My friend and I thought that asexuality wasn't being represented enough in media, so we created a webcomic series to fix that! Pt 2

I forever draw on phone, nothing else... Only phone... February 17, 2021 at 11:57PM

/u/allo100 on I'm considering I might be ace, and I have some questions

Sexual attraction can change. Who knows. But if you haven't really liked anybody sexually, you are asexual. If you never felt a romantic attraction, you are aromantic. You can be both. If you are asexual and alloromantic, absolutely you can fall I love romantically. If you are aromantic, you can love platonically or alterously, but not romantically. February 17, 2021 at 11:54PM

/u/Welpmart on Anyone on here who already pictured themselves as "the cool aunt/uncle with an awesome carreer who isn't married and visits for the holidays and brings their nephews/nieces cool gifts because they have no children and can afford it" before they even knew they were aro/ace?

Not to steal an aroace post, but as a lesbian ace who at this point isn't sure if I'll find anyone, I've always wanted this! I wanna spoil my friends and nieces and nephews and rock up to every miserably heterosexual family gathering with 5000 times more coolness than anyone else. February 17, 2021 at 11:53PM

I‘m LIVING it! I‘m a software engineer and love to spoil my niece rotten. I even got the cool aunt certified last christmas: Got a paper from the best niece in the world that humble me is the „best aunt in the world“. I‘m so going to frame it. February 17, 2021 at 11:52PM

As an only child without friends I very much doubt I’ll ever be in contact with kids lol. I don’t like them anyway, so it’s not a problem for me February 17, 2021 at 11:52PM

/u/DarkBlueChameleon on We are all just settling in for some really good friendship.

As an aro I do not really understand the difference between romantic attraction and just being close friends, so taking sex out of the equation does confuse me even more sometimes (and I'm not even sexually attracted to almost anyone either, it's just that I think I can understand it better), but I really don't think the people who say this shit are saying it in that sense.
