I understand that it happens, but everything beyond genital preferences is a mystery to me

“You will change your mind”
I’m still a teenager, so every time I mention asexuality, adults tend to say the usual stuff such as “you’re too young to know” or “you’re just confused”. I already heard all that stuff when I came out as queer, but I noticed that, especially with asexuality, people are always saying that “I will change my mind”. And I find it extremely disturbing that grown ass adults would want a kid to be sexually active. Like, isn’t that the dream of every single parent, a child who has a)no risk of getting pregnant, or at least willingly b)no risk of catching STI’s ? I don’t know it’s just weird to expect literal kids to have sex so they can conform to whatever norm.

I'm not saying he wasn't rude. I'm just saying he was clearly not interested.

Came out to a friend, instantly regretted it
I (18F) came out to one of my best friends of almost 4 years and instantly regretted it. He was one of the first people I came out to and I expected him to react fairly indifferent to the news but turns out he tried to continuously convince me that maybe I’m not ace.
He started by asking if I was sure and it wasn’t just the fact that maybe I “hadn’t found the right guy yet”. When I explained that I didn’t feel that way and was fairly certain about my sexuality he then shifted gears and said that I would feel differently once I had sex and that I would “get used it”.
I thought maybe he was just confused about what asexuality was so I tried to explain why I thought I was asexual but felt uncomfortable with trying to explain every aspect of my asexuality especially since he was already fairly ignorant and insensitive when I first told him. I gave up on trying to explain and asked him what he was trying to do when he kept offering these alternative arguments. He replied saying that he was just trying to help me make sure that I thought about things and was actually asexual before I tell other people because it was a “bold claim” to make.
I want to make him understand me and explain why I was upset by his comments but I fear that he simply won’t understand and that I may lose him as a friend. What should I do?
