How do allos think like this?
A while back, I went off of my base to visit a nearby aquarium, looked at all the fish, explored the stores nearby and had a delightful time. The next day, I told my shipmates about it, and then they asked if I "got lucky." I wasn't sure what they meant at first, but it dawned on me that they were asking me if I had sex, which I did not. All I did was visit an aquarium and some stores you buffoons! Not exactly appropriate of a question for a time at an aquarium, and what made them come to that conclusion? How do they think like that?

Stop posting straight-up aphobia
I'm not even sure why this has to be said. About half the posts I see on this sub nowadays are just unspoilered screenshots of people being aphobic. This is supposed to be a sub for ace people to communicate with other ace people, not remind everyone that there are people who think we're just mentally ill losers. I get wanting to vent about aphobic encounters online, but at least spoiler it. If I wanted to see people's aphobic opinions I'd just go on some Incel sub.
Tl;dr: Spoiler your posts about aphobia, or better yet don't post it at all

Do asexual people tend to fall in love hard?
So i'm an ace (24/F) experiencing being in love with someone for the first time. For context, i didnt found out i was an ace 2-3 years ago and i've never been the type to actively seek a relationship or have multiple crushes (still boggles how people manage to have multiple crushes). Still, i consider myself a beginner in being an ace since I don't know which spectrum do I stand on, possibly a demisexual (since i never been in relationship).
Before meeting my now-crush 2 years ago, I had only experienced a crush once when I was in middle school and even then, it was not strong enough for me wanting to have a relationship with him. Since then, I haven't had another crush since (aside celebrity crush, ofc) since i don't do dating. And i genuinely believed that I was incapable of romantic love. Obviously, that all changed when I met him. We were part of a theater club and was working as light crew, and we would worked together in a small room, shoulder side by side (the good ol days lol). In the span of two weeks of getting to know each other, I started to feel something in me, something familiar. At first, i was confused of what i was feeling towards him and thought my "crush" for him was just a desire to be his friend that I mistook for a crush (i noticed that i tend to have those a lot). I also didn't think that I like him in that way since i didn't feel any of those butterfly feelings like i had with my previous crush. I just felt calm, like I can be around him, and we have a lot in common. When I finally realize what I was feeling was love when I find myself trying to ask him out, I wanted to confess to him and even have the intention to be his gf. But i guess the universe was against me because another girl beat me to it and now they're dating.
Fast forward to present day, they're still dating (its a long distance though) and Im here, trying to move on from him and its proven to be hard since how much in love i am, so much so I told myself that If he is happy, then i',m happy (even though there is some parts of me that they would break up).
I guess what i'm trying to say is: do us ace tend to fall in love hard, especially for someone who believed that they would never fall in love and now experiencing love for the first time. I wanted to move on because its making me depressed seeing them together, but at the same time, I was afraid to let go of this crush because I don't know when I would find someone to love, and i'm afraid it would take another ten years for me to crush or maybe never.
Sorry for the long post. Just want to let tell someone else other than my friends :/
