platonic partner yesterday (after them thinking we were in a QPR for 2 months and me thinking we were still just friends because we are bad at clarifying things 😆) and I am so happy I had to share it

I came out recently and it went great!

For background: I'm kind of both in and out of the closet about being ace. I don't use the terms aro and ace to describe myself in day to day, but I also don't pretend to have crushes or want romantic relationships. I've come out once before to a very small group of friends, but with COVID and the distance involved, we don't really talk anymore.

So I have a work friend that I get along with very well, generally very accepting of everyone. One day we were joking back and forth and she noticed my ace ring and jokingly said, "Who are you married to? Wait, that's the wrong finger!" We laughed and I realized this might be the moment. So I took a deep breath and said, "That's my ace ring. I'm asexual."

Her eyes got really wide and she said, "Oh, I didn't know that ace rings were a thing! That's really cool." We just continued our conversation and she never said a word about it since.

Yesterday I got a new set of silicone rings delivered at work (shipping time was tons better) that are all in ace flag colors. When I told her what the package was, she immediately went, "You should wear them all at once, show your ace pride!"

Basically coming out to her was the right choice and it's nice to have someone know who is an active part of my life. I see so many coming out stories that don't go this well, so I wanted to share a positive one.

please help

for years ive been off and on about my asexuality. i know deep down that i am, and the thought of sex repulses me, but i ive had sex before (consentually and nonconsentually) and it makes me feel like a fake. Im also in a relationship right now and my partner has a very high sex drive. i dont know what to do, we love eachother very much but im so ashamed because i feel like i have to do something for them but i cant bring myself to. im so overwhelmed and i thought maybe some people on here could help me.

Feelings During Movie Sex Scenes

So I realize I either feel nothing or grossed out by movie/ film sex scenes.

Asexuality I know is a spectrum and many will feel things during these scenes, but personally I do not.

Anyway, I just want to know what you all here feel during movie sex scenes, if anything?

[OC] Clarification from my last post- Calling people “hot” as an ace is VALID and will not disprove or invalidate your asexual identity!

I’m an asexual comic artist, and I made a series of comics about my experiences shortly after realizing I was ace. Here’s the first one. Anyone else grow up deep in purity culture and remember thinking “what’s the big deal?”

I got a coworker fired for sexual harassment.

I (25M) got my coworker (47? F) fired because she saw my ace tattoo ( an ace of spades with the ace flag color scheme) and asked about it. I explained it and mentioned I don't like sex. She said "I can change that." And some reported her anonymously at work and HR questioned me. I told them what happened. At the end of the week, she was fired
