then thank you. And I want you to know that you are not broken, you are not unlovable, you are not doomed to a life of unsatisfactory relationships. Just because something has been normalized by the majority doesn’t mean that it is “normal.” You are whole, you are fine just the way you are, and you are deserving of community and relationships (whether they be platonic, romantic, familial, etc.).

My partner is asexual but i am not- i need advice

My partner (ftm20) and i (f20) have been dating for a little over two months, and im realizing that the level of intimacy i want and the level he’s okay with are vastly different, and i really want to support his wishes but i also crave that physical connection and im not sure how to go about keeping him comfortable without sending myself into depression. I love him so much and i really want what’s best for him, but I have to think about myself too, and it feels like an intrusion to ask him about the limits, so i was wondering if any of you seasoned asexuals could give me some advice on this. :)

Am I really aromantic?

So I have been questioning for a while now.

AM I REALLY AROMANTIC?

I ask this because I was talking to my mom (who is very accepting of my sexuality) but she really got me thinking about some things. I do want a relationship one day, I would like to grow old with someone. To me it looks like a live in best friend. We sleep in the same room together maybe even the same bed, we go to dinners together, we go to the movies, we really do everything together.

It's just I don't like physical affection no hugging, kissing, touching, cuddling, I don't want to smell your skin, even words like baby, honey, and bae etc. Yeah no just call me by my name. 😭

But my mom was saying that hanging around someone, wanting to be in their presence, thinking of them is a form of romance so maybe I am not aromantic?

Maybe I just experience romance differently?

I feel as if many aromatics don't want a relationship at all but I definitely do so I don't know.

Aces of reddit: What is your toxic trait?

I'm curious. What do y'all feel like it's your toxic trait (or biggest red flag, if you will)

I'm the last one to judge of course, I just felt like it's an interesting question. Imma answer it too, of course:

For me, it's my possessiveness, if you can call it that. Or not really possessiveness, but I get jealous very easily, am overall just clingy and have seperation anxiety and stuff like that, hard to explain. And while there are supposedly some people who like that, I personally haven't met anyone lol.

Why sex?

I never really understood why people are having sex. I always was disgusted by it, at first I thought it was because my first contact with sex was when I heard about r@pe in the media when I was 5 or something. But now I understand that everyone is just different. People like sex because it's pleasurable but when I think about it I just think that it's really unhygienic. I don't want some body liquid from someone else in my bed or on me. And touching eachother's private parts?? Ewww, it smells so bad. I always thought it was pretty disgusting and when people told me about it my brain was just horrified: "No way! People real do something THAT unhygienic and they enjoy it??"

Is some of your guys' first thought also how unhygienic it is when thinking about sex?

To all asexual/aroace people here who have never been in a relationship… do you feel insecure?

I’m happy with being aroace. I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything. It’s a part of my identity that I’m proud of. Yet, I can’t help but wonder… since I’ve never been in a relationship, and no one has ever attempted to start one with me, is there something unlikeable about me? Am I ugly and I just don’t know it? Do I not mesh well with other people?

Maybe weird post, but I just wanted to know if any of you guys feel the same, and if some of you do, how you guys deal with these feelings. I’m happy with being single for life, but these thoughts keep nagging at me.

Thanks for reading.
