How come that me being a sexual orientation that is not straight or gay or lesbian feel alienated within LGBTQ communitity? What can I do to feel more accepted?

People fear things that they do not understand. It does not mean that there is anything wrong with your sexual orientation. Education is key but people have to be willing to learn also. They have to meet you halfway. I would say to continue being your true self and acceptance shall fall into your lap.

Well first you have to try and face what sexual orientation you are, if it something like asexual and you can find that alienating, you need to first kinda realize that no community is always going to have the same beliefs within that community. You don't have to label oneself and that is fine also. Trying to fit into a community that isn't accepting of you isn't something that you should worry too much about unless it affects your rights as a person. You should self define and make your own community or reach out further into the internet to see if there are people that are like you.

I understand you here, darling. See, I identify as aromantic asexual and many LGBTQ individuals (not all, thank heavens) don't even recognize that we're any different than the straight community. I've found that the best way to deal with this is to find some people who *do* accept and recognize you for who you are. Even if it's some online group or something, the feeling of other-people-are-like-me is wonderful.

Find other people with similar orientations. They will have advice for you that people with different orientations won't. Plus it'll help you feel more accepted.

Unfortunately, internal discrimination in the community is a phenomenon that still exists. That's due to prejudice and ignorance, just like all types of discrimination. Spreading the knowledge about your identity to all willing to listen is something you can do to help limiting this phenomenon. I know it's frustrating to have to explain your identity over and over again, but if you can change even just one person's mind, it's worth trying to build a more inclusive world. You can encourage people to ask you questions about things they don't understand, and the rest will be up to them. Meanwhile, you can surround yourself with supportive people - I ensure you that there are a lot in the community! - to feel supported and gain enough strength to fight this discrimination.

It doesn't matter who you are, if you like someone then that's ok. All communities that you are a part of will accept you for who you are. Don't feel like you need to change yourself in order to fit in, because then only bad things will happen. You are special and you need to know that. Everyone is different and that is amazing.
