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??

I am still disappointed...
When I was in college, this guy and I kept talking about watching iron man together. I loved those movies. We never watched iron man though, and I only realized years later that he only just wanted to have sex. :( He never even liked iron man at all! And first I hated myself for having been so naive... but fuck that guy, he is the loser missing out on iron man.

HAPPY ACE WEEK！🍰♠️
This is my first ACE week. After so many years of confusion and exploration this year, now I can proudly say that I am asexual.

I don’t want to be this way
I always thought I’d “grow out of” my lack of interest in romantic relationships. In my teens I just acted like I was too cool for all the lovey dovey awkward high school dating. But as I’ve gotten older more and more I just wish to be…normal. In college I remember multiple times begging my own body to just please flip that switch that says “I would like to be physically intimate with my partner now”. Instead I went through cycle after cycle of starting to date a person, trying to make my mind and body just be normal, failing and they eventually breaking it off with me because to them I just looked like I had commitment issues. Or I was a prude. Or just a massive weirdo.
The older I get the weirder it is to society that I don’t have a partner. And frankly without a partner you miss out on alot. Just recently I was excluded from a friend event because the host said “sorry—couples only”. And don’t get me started on how many times I heard (about other people); “oh we were really worried about him but then he got a girlfriend” or “he’s so grown up now he’s even got a girlfriend!”. I am literally treated as less of an adult because I can’t hold down a partner.
And I know the rebuttal will be “just date someone who’s ace”. …do you all know how difficult that is? And I’m not a looker so I have trouble catching anyone’s attention. But trying to find that small sliver of a sliver of a percent of people in my area who are: single, ace, looking for a partner, find me interesting, and we get along in all other relationship facets? Impossible. I just want to force myself to be normal.

Wrong answers only - why are you ace?
Me first. Cause my parents said I could never have sex. Obviously I obeyed them mindlessly and made sure to never feel any attraction to anyone. 🫡 YES FATHER!
