6 months in and he admits to being asexual

WTAF.

I met him on Tinder. Fair enough if that's your thing, but I had to drag it out of him. I'm so, so angry. How dare he?!!!

I'm annoyed with myself as well because I did start to daydream in my head.

I am so, so done with this OLD crap.

He's one person. That said, OLD you have to sift through an awful lot of mud to find a shiny thing.

Chuck him back and maybe take a break for a bit. He should have said something earlier though.

What a dick.

I'd suspect that at some point down the line he may later admit that he is not asexual at all and has other issues (eg: porn addict and only into sick shit). If you were to keep seeing him that is.

But either way, how dare he not tell you before you got into a committed relationship! Absolute head wrecker that he is. Wanted you to fall for him and then only tell you when it would be heart wrenching for you to leave. Proper selfish bastard.

I’m assuming he’s been stringing you along, sleeping with you and promising you a future?

Arsehole!

At least I didn't sleep with him. He was, at least, 'social distancing'.

Fuck him.

What a waste of your time. I'm sorry for you. Don't give up though- there are gems out there hidden beneath all the shit.

Ummm... I'd wonder if he actually is asexual or just making up some excuse for not progressing the relationship.

There are romantic asexuals who want to have a romantic relationship but without the sex (and also asexuals who don't want to have any kind of relationship, with or without sex). So to be fair to him, perhaps he was looking for a relationship like this but if this was the case he should have mentioned it much earlier and I don't think Tinder is the best place to look for a non-sexual relationship!

How old is he and has he had a previous relationship?
