Idk what to identify as
I’m asexual but I’m also straight and I’m not aromantic. Idk really know what to say when someone asks my sexuality and stuff. Also have any of you told friends and family if so how and what did they say? I wanna tell my friends but I’m just not 100% sure yet
Hi I'm so proud of you for being so open about your sexuality. I am personally lesbian, my pronouns are she/they and I haven't really come out yet. My friends know that I'm gay but my dad found out recently. It's been hard but I have friends and a therapist who can help me. Good luck xo
you can be straight and ace. there’s nothing wrong with that. there are many people who are queer and ace spectrum including myself. i definitely think there can be a difference between romantic and sexual attraction and you can have different preferences for both.
be straight and enjoy your life bro . i learned from my experience that its not a good idea to not be straight.have a great day and bye ☺️🤗
If you're not aromantic but know that you're attracted to the opposite sex/gender but not sexually, that could be Heteroromantic Asexual. I feel I come under the Panromantic Asexual label personally. My partner knows I'm asexual but not many others know. I don't really like to talk about sex which is probably a stem from the asexuality, so sharing that isn't really what I do.
Theres something called the Split Attraction Model - it's what ace/aro ppl came up with to separate romantic attraction from sexual attraction. So you can totally be asexual, but heteroromantic or biromantic or whatever fits you! For me, I've told a few different people. My online friends, my sister, I'm planning on telling my brother. I've had incredibly loving and accepting responses, which I've been so grateful for. I've recently come out to my childhood best friend, and she said that "that is just being straight", so every reaction might not be perfect. No matter what anyone says to you, your identity remains valid 💜
