How did your partner react to you coming out?
I've been in a realsinsip, and I've been wondering if I'm asexaul for awhile, I finally got up the courage to tell my partner who I've been with for a couple months and she's had mixed reactions. Has anyone eles came out mid relationship that they're asexaul? If so, how did your partner react?

You can be ace and heterosexual
There's some casual aphobia going on in another post. 🤨
• "Gray ace" is a term for individuals who identify as asexual, but who experience a low level of sexual attraction or attraction only in certain situations.
• ex: Demisexual.
• Demisexual only refers to how you experience sexual attraction, not to who.
• Demisexuals can be hetero, gay, lesbian, bi, pan, etc.
• ex: biromantic heterosexual demisexual (some might shorten it as demi-hetero or hetero-demisexual etc)
• Romantically interested in multiple genders. Sexually interested in the opposite gender. No sexual attraction until a connection is formed.
Demisexuals aren't heteroROMANTIC when they EXPERIENCE SOME SEXUAL ATTRACTION and are on the ASEXUAL spectrum. They may fall somewhere else on the ROMANTIC spectrum. There's literally a word for that. 💀
Straight demis are welcome here incase you all forgot. Go consult google if you don't remember the definition of asexual being "LITTLE TO no" sexual attraction. Just because y'all don't like something doesn't make it true.

Advice Dating Asexual
Dating an Asexual Advice
Hey, new to all this :)
Have some questions surrounding how to best approach dating a ace as an allo, cis male.
1) How are some ways you personally take care of your sex drive, when your partner typically isn't open to it, and can sometimes be repulsed by sex? My drive is not high, but it's still a regular urge, y'know? Any ideas for solo remedy, or even other non-solo remedies?
2) What are some ways to keep non sexual intimacy and attraction up? She has no idea, as it's a first relationship sorta doesn't know, so ideas welcome!
3) How can I better educate myself of how she feels as an ace person, and get helpful advice or access information? It would be REALLY handy for people doing this for a first time. We've talked about it before, and not even she knows (I guess she hasn't been open online about it, or found anything online?)
Really want to be the best partner I(21M) can to my girlfriend (23F). We have been together only 2 years, but she is an absolute gem, and I love her dearly. She does suffer from depression, and other things due to chronic illness, which is a contributing factor. We have great chemistry and communication, so I'm optimistic we can make it work!
(I really don't mean to upset anyone, I know some think aces shouldn't date non aces, please be kind, I just want to make her happy)

Asexsual, do you tell people this?
Hi, After years of feeling bad I finally realized that I am not alone in this ❤️🩹
But I don't dare say it and I don't know if it's something like coming out of the closet when I'm asexual...
I'm so scared to get into a relationship because of this because I really don't want to be forced into things I don't want again. but I don't want to end up alone, I just want someone who loves who I am.
What have you done? and do you tell people or not? I've been keeping it to myself for so long.
If there is anyone around 18-25 years old who is going through the same thing and wants to talk? I have tried through different sites but I can't get in touch with someone... it would really help me to be able to talk to someone about it :( Thanks for reading and have a nice day ❤️

So is it normal to want a sincere relationship without sex?
I was just a part of another subreddit and was disgusted to read that “sex” makes up the whole world but is that really true? Can’t people simply love without being physical or am I delusional? Like being ace has taught me that love doesn’t have to be that way in the slightest but still.

Tell me your biggest non sexual celebrity crush
Jensen Ackles. JENSEN ACKLES.
Raaghhh I could go ON about how perfect this man is. And so friggin beautiful I love him sm. The dude can sing, has impeccable music taste, he’s literally one of the best actors I’ve ever seen, (and without much real classical training btw). He has proven many times to be good at basically anything he tries. He learned an entire tap dance routine within only fifteen minutes with barely any experience in dance. Can’t forget the fact that he also did a perfect J turn, after being offered a stunt double to do it for him, and he was just like “nah I’ll try it myself” and that mf only practiced it a couple of times over LUNCH. There’s many stories like this about him btw, but I’m not gonna overload this post lol. He’s also an amazing parent to his kids. A loving and amazing green flag of a husband to his wife. I swear this man cannot be real. Such a man simply does not exist like that.
Yes this was just so I can have an excuse to rant about Jensen Ackles. Glad you noticed lol.
(Seriously tho please share)
