"I wish I was ace"
tl;dr Did anyone of you wish you were asexual before you understood you actually are?
When I first heard the term asexual, I was already deep in my identity crisis. While other people see straight as some kind of default, I've been considering myself pansexual since I was 12 y/o and never questioned again. Well, I started again out of nowhere in 2020 and due to my lack of sexual interest in men I thought I would be a lesbian. It took me a while to figure out my asexuality and tbh I'm happy I know now.
The title might give it away already. I had that moment when I discovered the term and was like "oh, that sounds nice... I wish I were asexual". That time I was sure that me wanting to be asexual would make me fake so I brushed it off at first.
I now just remembered that I read something like that in the lesbian masterdoc (if you don't know what that is: it's some kind of lesbian manifesto a former questioning lesbian wrote to help other women figure out if they're lesbians). Under the point "considering lesbianism" it says a lot of things that were pretty similar to things I thought about being asexual.
I guess a lot of people knew from the start that they're asexual and just needed to find the right word. But for those who were questioning a lot: Did you ever had some kind of thought like that? Did you wish you were ace but simultaneously tried to tell you that it couldn't be real?

My fellow aces I need to share a story
Sooo I'm female ace but not long ago i've realized that I like girls romantically.
This week I had a language exam. As I was waiting for the speaking exam( I think that's what they're called) a girl came next to me. She had a black ring on her middle finger and yall know what that means.
I could only see her eyes because of the mask but they were so beautiful and She was so pretty and.... okay i'll stop...
We were the only ones waiting for the exam and we started talking and guess what my socially awkward self did, I complimented her ring.
Next day was the writing. I sit down and She came to my desk and we smiled at each other and started talking again about the exam (that was the only topic we could talk about)
I've realized I can't stop thinking about her so maybe I have a little crush on her?
Anyway I just wanted to share my little story
Have a wonderful day everyone😁💜

Not sure why this was in a French subreddit, but it seems like it fits here

I might seem like an affectionate baby but pls don't confuse sensual and sexual (btw, art by @hotdogsushiikimera)
