Was she indeed dealing with one of those asexuals? I still don’t know…
I am now beginning to see the dichotomy of blooming alloromanticism and allosexuality versus cold aromanticism and asexuality.
Perhaps I can finish typing this and finally realize that as much as I adored you back then, that adoration is finally leaving.
They were nice guys but when I brought up if they were okay with my asexuality they seemed conflicted.
I didn’t consciously desire people's attention or affection, but I loved when I had it.
Before you realized you were different, you had already made peace with loneliness.
At my age, 64, I could use the help, especially with the carrot.
People say, “You’re in love, you’re married, and yet you haven’t had sex?” Is there only one form of love?
Self-love entails acceptance and compassion towards yourself: you begin to acknowledge that your experiences are valid and important.
According to my parents, it was too much reading on the internet that has tricked me into thinking I fit into this uncommon label.
I am here to tell a story about how societal expectations tricked me into believing that I was ultimately broken or deviant, until I was given the opportunity to rise out of those definitions.
I figured I’d grow into it one day, or at least that’s what the world tried to tell me would happen.
No word is adequate, not “lover” nor “partner,” not “friend” nor “comrade.”
The prospect of dating has never even crossed your mind, and now you’re a “girlfriend for sale.”
Just because I’m asexual doesn’t mean I escape this body, its consequence and expectation.
You learn new words and labels that you relate to. You find that other people think the way you do.
After I tell you what I mean by ‘aromantic’, you have your arms around me.
It’s fair to say the machinations of romance elude my understanding and feel undoubtedly non-applicable to me.
It blows my mind that someone would have that type of attraction to me because I would never have that type of attraction to them.
