Fuck your birth sign, what does your ace ring look like

So I’m curious, what did you guys pick out for your first/favorite/current ace ring, and if you don’t have one, what would you look for in one?
Mine is a black stainless steel with my birthstone and a dragon decal on it.
I’ve always thought the concept of ace rings was super cool, even before I figured out that I, myself, am ace, and I just thought it would be fun to share.

How do you feel about gender?

So I'm female and i don't really care about gender. I feel like as aroace, gender really doesn't matter, as i don't want people perceiving me in any kind of way that relates to my gender.

For a while I thought I could be non-binary as I dress however I please, and don't really care for my appearance or body shape. But then I thought, it's so bothersome to explain your gender whenever you go, and I'm not really uncomfortable with my label, so why bother.

So i ask this question to you, how do you experience gender? Does this rambling make sense to you? do you think there is a relationship between gender and sexuality?

Is it considered cheating if...

I'm an asexual girl and I have this close male friend to whom I talk a lot about almost anything. (except for anything sexual) He's straight, not asexual and has a girlfriend. Our conversation is never inappropriate/sexual/romantic, it's completely platonic. The thing is I'm a person who has platonic needs and I fill those needs by talking to him. Is it considered cheating on my part even though we're 100% just friends by definition because for me romance/love = having a platonic intimacy with someone?

Found Myself...Finally

I'm a 35 y/o married mother of 2. I've been working toward dismantling my societal expectations of myself for 15 years due to strong religious background and ingrained biases to overcome. I examined the expectations of my role and accepted myself for who I am, and I embraced the ace label. I will say it took another bit of time before I was ready to share with anyone.

I just verbalized it to another person (my husband, who did not take it well) for the first time yesterday, followed closely by three (much more) supportive friends. My husband wants me to get checked out by my doctor, get my meds reexamined (depression and anxiety) for side effects, and see a counselor. I know it's not a medical issue, but to get him to understand, I'll put myself through a little bit of discomfort. I'm not expecting this to be easy, but it's so liberating accepting I am different than I was expected to be. I made this account so I could find a supportive community.

Does anyone have experience you'd be willing to share about finding your label later in life, how it impacted your relationships, and how you're doing now?

Thank you for listening to my story.
