sex-ambivalent ace here! school group-project partner made some really invasive comments about me and my s/o, asked why me and my s/o didn't [๐] yet, judging me for not having interest in it or feeling sexual attraction, even saying "you might as well date your dad"

10 minutes of your time to improve LGBTQIA+ healthcare!
Hello beautiful people! ๐
Do you want to help our community tackle mental health issues?
Then participate in my research study which I am conducting as part of my master's thesis during the Communication Science program at the University of Amsterdam.
https://uvacommscience.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV\_8x1YmpD9vO3E1pk
What? My topic is the acceptance of mental health chatbots among the LGBTQIA+ community. What we observe is that members of the LGBTQIA+ community are more prone to develop mental health issues compared to heterosexual/cisgender individuals. At the same time, mental healthcare might not be accessible to everyone who needs help, or individuals might hesitate due to feelings of shame, stigma or anxiety. Chatbots can nowadays be trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and provide valuable support, especially to those who look for a non-judgemental, anonymous and always accessible space to disclose their worries. Or to those, who feel hesitant or ashamed to share their feelings with a human therapist or who might not even have access to a psychologist in the first place.
The survey will take not more than 10 minutes and would help not only me with my master thesis but hopefully the whole LGBTQIA+ community by providing appropriate and accessible healthcare :)
Thank you in advance! โค๏ธ๐งก๐๐๐๐

I think I may be harmful to the community...
I've seen people say many times that they absolutely hate the stereotype of aces/aroaces being emotionless husks who don't like to do anything, but I think I am the embodiment of that stereotype.
Sure I do have emotions, but only those ones that are short-lived, like amusement at a joke or joy being with friends or brief sadness when watching a sad film. But when it comes to long-term passions or attachments/connections to people, I have basically nothing. Recently my mum went away for a while with our dog on a trip, but I barely noticed the difference while she was gone, and when she came back she was saying how much she had missed us and I felt kinda bad because I hadn't missed either of them.
Also I'm aroace, so I have none of those attractions, but I think I barely have any other attractions too, like I don't feel any connection to my friends (don't get me wrong, they're the best friends in the world and I'm so lucky to have found them, but I don't feel any true emotional connection to them) despite people saying that platonic attraction is a thing. Recently I've started feeling a slight "pull" is the only way I can describe it towards one of them, which I am starting to think might be platonic attraction, but it's the strongest feeling I've ever felt, so yeah
I don't quite know why I am writing this, I guess I wanted to apologise for spreading the stereotype, but I also kinda want to know if anyone else feels like this? Idk, if you've read this far - thanks for listening I guess? Sorry for the ramble
