Mom insists on marriage?
My mom just had a talk with me about me getting marriage. I finally got a long term job, and she says relatives have been asking about me so it's about time. I hinted that I might not get married, and she was horrified. She said that the only options are marriage and religious orders (we're Catholic). She asked me straight out if I was gay and I said no. She asked me my reasons, and I said mental health and a complicated reason I didn't want to get into yet (aka my asexuality).
I don't think I am aro, but I doubt the people my mom's friends are sending will be ace. Plus, I am not sure I even want to get married. I was hoping to slip through the cracks and never come out (I have a bunch of siblings), but I think she is going to start laying on the pressure and I am not sure what to do. I don't know how my family would react, but even my siblings were horrified at the idea of me never getting married, so I have a bad feeling about it...

I came out as asexual last night
I'm probably not gonna post a lot on here but..
I'm a 42 year old human male with 2 cats
And after a lot of soul searching which was accelerated in the recent months for whatever reason I have just fully realized i'm an asexual bean, and I'm at peace with this.
Of course all my friends have supported me which is great, and I knew they would.
There are so many better things than sex for me (a good video or board game, a Green Bay Packers Blowout victory, A Green Bay Packers Close victory and many more) But nope don't feel any sort of attraction outside that.
Anyways like I said i'm just posting to say hi and my little story. I probably won't post much or even reply much because, i'm an awkward derp.
I'm Ekhdal and I'm an Asexual.
Hi.
Whats up with the garlic bread memes? I forking love garlic bread.

So I married a sex addict....
I've been married to a sex addict for 4 years. I told him up front and he accepted it. In the beginning we had a lot of sex...mostly because we were on drugs and drugs are the only thing that makes me horny. Now that I am clean and so is he it's destroying our marriage. He verbally abuses me and treats me terribly unless I have sex with him on a very regular basis. He also now says he doesn't believe I'm actually asexual and that he thinks I'm just not attracted to him anymore and that I'm cheating on him. But none of that is true. I actually caught him cheating online a couple weeks ago and he's trying to turn it around on me and is gas lighting me. It's insane.
The only thing I can manage is sex once a week for him at best and I hate it the entire time.
So yeah I know he's clearly an abusive person and it's the real problem in our marriage but there has to be something to help balance it out? I just completely am sex repulsed these days. Despite my husband being an asshole I really don't want a divorce. I just don't know what to do I am so tired of having my asexualtity ruin all of my relationships in the end. :(
Eta: we have a 2 year old, if I didn't have a child I would have simply filed for divorce or skipped out a long time ago.
