My mom wants to identify as Ace because she’s tired of people?
Hi, I’m asexual myself and my mom a couple months back said she feels ace because she’s “tired of people and their bullshit” and “people are gross, I don’t want to handle all of that. I think I’m Ace.” Previously she said some really hurtful things about me and my Asexuality saying “you won’t ever find love unless you give them what they want. You’ll never get married at this rate.” That shit hurt me to my core. She WAS high as a kite. But still, and then just casually mentioning a few months later that’s she’s “Ace.” I forgot about it until she mentioned it today and I couldn’t give her a proper answer. I feel like I’m biased so I can’t give a proper judgement on this. Please help because she won’t let this go. She also said “I don’t think I can be sexually attracted to people with their bullshit” today so maybe that helps. She started saying it after a huge depressive episode after a breakup, trying to find work and people being rude and rejecting her (she’s almost there though. Going the training! I’m proud of her) our unsupportive family not helping when my grandma was in the hospital, and after she died. She’s much better now. I love my mom and if she really is Asexual/ under the umbrella, I don’t want her past actions clouding my judgement when she’s sincerely asking for advice. She’s very cool with the rest of the LGBTQ+ community, but had a hard time understanding me being Ace. She can get mad about being corrected with pronouns (she tries for my friends) but when I told her that me correcting her wasn’t about her, she got and she’s been cool. She also says she wants a “gay best friend who’s sassy, dresses nice, and tells it how it is.” Like collecting a Pokémon or smth. I don’t know. I just know that I’m Biased and I need someone to tell me if this is social burnout + voluntarily celibate. Thank you ☺️

How did you find out you’re asexual?
I found out masterbating. My face was all red and chapped as if a wrong bad product. Then when I left the bathroom I saw my coffee pot and I decided to make coffee. As I was making it; loving the taste I was like “This is so much better than any sexual activity.”
My reason for no sex is I just don’t care. No thanks.
Update: Hello fellow Asexuals whichever asexual term… I cannot respond to a lot of you. But just know; HELL YEAH! Hope you’re happy. Much love.

Frustrated about what to say to BF
I’ve identified as ace for forever, and I know I am. But my bf doesn’t believe me. He says I can’t be ace if we have sex. We do have sex, but from my end it’s just to please him. I’m always super bored and faking it and definitely not interested or having fun.
I don’t understand how to explain to him that yes, I can be ace while also engaging in sexual activity. I don’t want him to know I don’t like it or that I’m faking it.
Okay Reddit, thoughts?

how to not feel bad knowing i’m going to end my bloodline
first off, i’m out to my parents as asexual. unfortunately, i also don’t have any siblings, and i’m sure my parents are going to want grandchildren once i’m an adult. i’m planning on maybe adopting a kid or two, but i feel like that may not feel the same for them also, i’m diagnosed as autistic and i think i heard somewhere that it’s harder for autistic people to adopt children?? idk if that’s true or not
how do i stop feeling guilty about this??
