Its kind of annoying to tell people this and they don’t believe you or say “You’ll fall in love one day, you’ll see” Or when I say that I’m asexual they go “I’m sorry to hear that” Have you guys ever get such comments? | |

They arn`t you, and they can`t know for sure how you feel, but it`s good you know who you are. If you ever need to talk to someone about this I`m here. and best of luck  | |

“How can someone not like sex, it’s the best thing ever!”
“You’re young, you don’t know who you are yet.”
“You can’t have a romantic relationship without sexual attraction.”
“Sex and love go hand in hand.”
“You can’t have a platonic partner, that isn’t even a thing.”
THERE ARE SO MANY I COULD KEEP GOING FOR HOURS | |

450 QA Reputation0 | YokoChan said 9 years, 9 months ago: All my friends just accept that I’m asexual and they don’t even bother discussing it, because there’s nothing to say. But I heard a lot of “grown-ups” tell me that:
“You just haven’t met the right person yet.”
“One day you’ll change your mind.”
“You can’t be in a relationship without sex.”
“You can’t tell, you’re still a virgin.”
“Just try it!”
Especially the last one makes me really mad because I DON’T WANT TO TRY IT and they just don’t understand. | |
