I'm ace and I wish I was okay with that

...See more I've identified with asexuality ever since I found out about it in college (about 10 years ago) but the more that time goes on the more I'm struggling with being okay about it. I've NEVER had a sex drive, so I know its ME and not just being on birth control or depression. But conversely, since I've never had a sex drive I've never 'gotten around' to having sex, and I feel like I'd be cheating myself if I swore off sex without ever trying it. It is, as I understand it, supposed to be nice? But yeah between that and the constant bombardment from society that the only way I'll have a long term happy stable relationship/life is to have a sexual relationship with someone, I find myself in a weird place of cognitively KNOWING that what I am and where I'm at is okay, but not being able to really BELIEVE IT.
