Hello OP. Does your asexuality mean that you don't enjoy any sexual feelings at all, or does this just mean you don't enjoy sex with other people? That is, when you are by yourself can you enjoy sexual fantasies and so on?
YouAreNotBatman · 28/02/2023 07:52
I don’t want sex with anyone.
And I wouldn’t use word ’enjoy’, but if and when my libido comes knocking I take care of it.
But I don’t think about sex, or have feeling around it.

Would you have sex for a million pounds

Does Asexual mean that you’ll never have a partner? Or do Asexuals partner up ever for friendship/emotional support etc? Also, does this mean you never flirt / dress up etc thanks

Perhaps we should make our own ace space for truly asexual people who have basic common sense? 😁
YouAreNotBatman · 28/02/2023 07:36
Hello there!
No, I don’t know any other aces.
No meet up’s in my small country.
And these days I also mostly stay away from asexual spaces / sites, for pretty much same reasons as you.
They are like 80% filled with people who have sex and want to educate how aces can be kinky.
It made no sense and if I asked about I was told I’m aphobic!
CiraAce · 28/02/2023 07:27
Hello from a fellow ace! (Also sex-repulsed.) Have you managed to find any close ace friends in real life? I have been to several ace meetups but was put off by the fact that most of the attendees were actually not asexual (many claimed to be demi/grey-sexual which is NOT asexual!). Also they all seemed to be keen on gender ideology and pronouns and that was a huge red flag.

@CiraAce
I guess I'm just wondering who on Earth you've been hanging about with all this time that you can't just enjoy a book group or afternoon tea or whatever it is like anyone else does.
I go to all sorts of social events with friends or to meet new people and sex and romance are not topics that come up. I couldn't give a flying fuck who they want to or don't want to get into bed with and neither do they.

Just out of interest, have you had a thorough hormone test. I read quite an interesting thing the other day?
PinkFrogss · 28/02/2023 08:20
Interesting thread OP, thank you.
Have you had a romantic relationship before? Does being ace have an impact on the rest of your sexuality - not sure what the term would be but for example a straight woman would only want to have sex with men, because you don’t want to have sex with anyone does that mean you’re open to dating either gender? So I suppose do you almost have a second sexuality for romantic attraction?
YouAreNotBatman · 28/02/2023 07:18
36.
So you’d really think it would have happened by now!
Vegrocks · 28/02/2023 07:13
So, since never felt sexually attraction, it’s pretty safe to say I am ace.
how old are you?

Do you feel better now that you've found a label to show how special you are?''
Do you feel better after you posted that nasty little comment?
If you are not interested in the topic, scroll on.
The OP is sharing their story and discussing it with people who actually want to engage in conversation.
No need to react in this way.
SomePeopleAreJustBloodyStupid · 28/02/2023 08:53
Why do you assume anyone is even remotely interested?
Badfootkk · 28/02/2023 08:39
Your oestrogen and progesterone. I know most people already know this. But they are very finally balanced in the body and play a vitally important role and I'm not saying you need to be fixed, but it may be indiciitve that there may be an imbalance, there that could have health implications (such as week bones, for example)

I haven’t.
Hormones? As in libido, right?
I’ve never had any problems with it.
