What even am I


My friend made a point that I could be asexual with a hypersexual trauma response. Personally I’m just confused.

I have DID for some context so that means I have alters or different personalities. One part of them was ace to the point of being repulsed by anything and everything sexual. We had a fusion which means he fused with two of us (3 alters/personalities became one) and since then the host has been a bit asexual but we’re confused on if it’s because of the fusion or if that’s really us

All of my life I thought there was something wrong with me because I couldn’t get there when I had solo time. After realizing I had DID I realized I had been molested and used for sex from at least 4-12.

I had my first relationship last summer (wlw) I don’t remember most of it cuz of my DID. I don’t remember if I ever wanted to kiss them. We did kiss a few times but I think I dreaded it and didn’t understand how to do it. It just felt weird. I’ve never had sex that I’ve consented to so I don’t know if I’d like it. At the moment the idea of having sex (both giving and receiving) with someone or kissing someone makes me feel sick.

I don’t want to be asexual. I want to have kids with someone. Am I just supposed to have a friend and have kids with them I don’t get it.

Then there’s people like my best friend who I’ve always had a thing for and I’ve written songs about kissing people. So I’m just so extremely confused and don’t understand plus I’m ready to start dating again this is the worst timing

I feel like no one’s going to have anything to say and this turned into a sort of vent but idk just how did you know you were asexual and do/did you still ever do anything sexual? (Ik it’s a spectrum)

What do I do about my non-asexual boyfriend?

My boyfriend (25m) and I (22f) have been together for nearly a year and now I feel stuck. We’ve only had sex once and now I feel guilty because I’m asexual.

I recently reminded him I’m asexual, since when we first got together he seemed fine. But now I don’t think he knows what it means for me. I don’t feel sexual attraction. Yeah I find my boyfriend hot but I’m just not sexually attracted to anything?

Now, we’ve been arguing a lot because I’ve started saying no more often during intimacy. He tells me that it’s because of my trauma growing up and that when I get better I’ll be normal again.

And i feel even worse when we argue and he calls me immature for this, because he’s seen cases where an asexual person was no longer asexual when they found their partner. I’m not like that. Now I feel stuck because he clearly wants to be intimate and always says that if we aren’t we can’t have a family.

I reminded him I want a family too and that adoption is always an option, and that if he really wanted biological kids instead I’d be willing to do that. I just don’t want intimacy by any other means.

He tells me to “just enjoy it” and that there’s nothing wrong with enjoying it. And that he’s “fine” with me being asexual he just wants me to want it more because my “heart is closed”.

Someone please just help me. I don’t know what to do anymore.

Question 💭

Hello I’m new here and also new to this community I’m still reading up on things for knowledge and to better understand myself going forward.

My question is can I be both Bisexual and Asexual ?

I personally align with both , I am attracted to both male and female, and I’m also asexual because my attraction to someone stops there . I don’t have the desire to interact in sexual relations , again I’m still looking into things and reading right now
( reading/book suggestions welcome)
I’m trying to figure out if I’m more inline with demisexual or Graysexual .

Do I or do I not divulge before dating?

I'm ace, 29F, and have recently adopted the label. I've dated before, but I've never slept with anyone. Nor do I want to either. But I've recently discovered I might not be aromantic as I previously assumed. I have started dating again, only this time I want people I'm dating to know what's on the table and what isn't. Personally, I'm not really possessive and am open to the concept of my partner seeking out others for physical relationships. Exclusivity is not a big deal for me frankly.

That said, my straight friends think I'm being defeatist or setting myself up for failure. That I shouldn't "reveal" that I'm Asexual before idk, before anyone falls for me I guess. I think it's a bit dishonest not to, although I do know it limits my prospects, especially since I'm straight.

What say you, internet people?

Chocolate Analogy?

I've heard the analogy used that for asexuals it's like sex is chocolate and we're people who don't like chocolate but I feel like this is inaccurate as some asexuals do like and enjoy "chocolate" and some dislike or hate "chocolate" I feel like a better analogy would be to say we don't crave chocolate but what do think? Am I over complicating things?

GF broke up with me

My gf just broke up with me after 9 months of the best relationship I've had in so long. She said she doesn't feel physically desired. I'm so frustrated because I'm very open about being Ace and I guess she thought she could deal but couldn't? I'm heartbroken. I love this girl and just want to make this work but there's no real compromises here. I wish she had realized this earlier.

💜💚🤍 “Dear Luke, Love, Me” Anew film about a queer-platonic, asexual relationship drops this Friday on Apple TV

Hey everyone! I just found out that Dear Luke, Love, Me, a film centered on an asexual, queer-platonic relationship, is finally releasing on Apple TV this Friday, and I’m surprised it’s not being talked about here yet.

Plot:
Spanning over a decade, soulmates Penny and Luke navigate their queer-platonic significant-other relationship while facing pressure to “find something normal.” It’s tender, messy, and deeply validating for anyone who’s ever had a bond that doesn’t fit traditional labels.

Why it matters:
It’s being called one of the first narrative feature films to focus on an asexual love story. Writer-producer Mallie McCown based it on her own real-life QPR-like experience, and it’s directed by Guillermo Díaz (Scandal, Weeds). The film was crowdfunded by over 1,200 backers and filmed in Virginia.

Where to watch:

I feel like this could be a big deal for ace, aro, and QPR representation 😊 If you watch it, please come back and share your thoughts! 💜💚🤍

Can you be asexual and very freaky?

Hellooo!

I've been thinking about my sexuality for years now. Based on my experience, identifying as something on the ace-spectrum would make the most sense.

I have never felt sexual attraction, to a point where I had to research the concept for weeks to understand it properly. I really don't feel it. When I researched, people often thought of arousal and attraction as different, not directly connected things to feel, what makes much more sense than to categorise them as the same exact thing.

But could there be a third 'category'? Because many things I did were FREAKY (I don't wanna go into detail, but some would even be conconsidered overly freaky for allosexuals, sooo...)

Nonetheless, I registered two crucial features in all of these actions:

Firstly, I NEVER felt sexual attraction like allosexual people describe it. It was never pointed at a specific person nor had I the active fantasy of doing naughty things with these people.

Secondly, I was never really 'aroused' or did said things because of arousal. I never had the intention to do sexual activities with said people. When something happened, I wasn’t the one initiating the act itself. I only went with it (because I was okay with it!). I was talking and texting about these kinda things, but the active wish to do them never left my fantasy. And as soon as they got too real, I wasn't finding joy in them anymore.

I wasn't aroused or attacked, I was just very very freaky. Due to the fact of these somewhat chaotic feelings and intertwining concepts, I am actively doubting my identification as asexual.

Like I already said, asexuality is a spectrum and I know I am somewhere on that. Nevertheless, it makes me uncomfortable or even worse, feeling like I am not a part of the ace community or even harming it, by using its labels.

Do you think, 'being freaky' could be categorised separately or does it fit in one of the existing concepts?

Sorry for my english-skills, I am not a native speaker and languages aren't really my thing.
