Anonymous asked: I don't really know what I would identify as because as I form a relationship with someone I lose the urge to have sex with them. I just don't find it appealing at all. When I first meet people I can find them sexually attractive, but after that, nothing.

Anonymous asked: I'm an aromantic asexual, but I'm horny all the time. How? Why? Can I get rid of it? It's just annoying. I'm not attracted to specific people, its just about getting off....

Anonymous asked: I sort of like relationships, but I get uncomfortable if they start going to far. I absolutely will not have sex. I don't want it. I am attracted to people though. Just never in a sexual way. I want to be in a relationship, I want to fall in love, but I don't want sex to be a part of it. Would I be considered asexual?

Anonymous asked: I'm beginning to question whether or not I'm asexual, because I'm twenty and have never had a relationship or anything of any sort, and for a while I thought it was because I was terrible at them but then I realized it was because I was purposely nipping things in the bud. & I noticed I haven't been interested in a romantic connection for two years now. However I tend to...

Anonymous asked: I'm actually, physically unable to have sex due to a cocktail of physiological problems. I have an active sex drive but I do everything I can to avoid sex because of these problems and have become pretty psychologically conditioned to dread sex, arousal and even relationships thanks to this, but if I didn't have them I would probably be actively seeking those. What does this make me?

Anonymous asked: What do you think of the debate going about asexuals identifying as queer? Personally I'd just like it if people let others choose for themselves instead of argueing. Sometimes I wish I could just say that I'm queer and not have to worry about backlash.

Anonymous asked: hi, i have a question. very occasionally i have sexual fantasies, but i know i would have no desire or wish to act on them if they were to occur in real life. i'm not remotely interested in having sex with another person and i'm aromantic too, so i'm not interested in being in a relationship either. i have a guilty pleasure for romance in books and movies but it isn't something...

Anonymous asked: To the 19, female, recently started university. I'm 21, been in an Ace-NonAce relationship since I was 18 so it is possible! Maybe has different challenges (trying to find a balance you're both happy with, I'm quite lucky my boyfriend is as understanding as he can be.) I mentioned it quite early on a few months in mainly because I hadn't had a boyfriend before and it just sort...

Anonymous asked: Hi! (: I'm 19, female, and recently started university. There's a guy who started sitting next to me in lectures and tutorials and we've been talking and he flirts with me a lot and I see him watching me out the corner of my eye, i flirt back a little because I do like him but I haven't mentioned the asexuality thing and I don't know if I'll seem like a tease? Is it...

crayolagoddess asked: I asked out a very close friend of mine recently, and it went really well, and I really really love when she plays with my hair, and I love holding her hand and things, but the more I really reflect and read and things, the more I'm sure that I'm aromantic. I really enjoy how things are right now, but I'm scared she might be expecting something more, and I want her to understand,...

Anonymous asked: this might be dumb but if i "kind of sometimes want sex but not often" am i considered asexual? i saw this as part of the descriptions of asexuals. and i've always felt that i didn't like sex as much as most other people but i thought that was just that i didn't like it. but recently i've been looking into asexuality to see if it could fit me. and most of it does, but...

Anonymous asked: I've recently (i.e. in the last hour) realised I am probably asexual. But I'm just very confused as to how this can really be "confirmed" -- it seems all other sexualities have it easy and clearly defined but asexuality seems like really murky water. Help?

Anonymous asked: I'm hoping asking here is okay, since demisexual is close to asexual... I just wanted to clear something up that's been bothering me for a while. I identified as pansexual for about 2 years before I discovered demisexuality/romanticism. Now, I'm pretty sure I'm still pansexual/romantic because I have the ability to be attracted to binary and non-binary genders, however,...

Anonymous asked: there was a submission on the unpopular opinions blog, and I just have to say how disheartening it is to see people on tumblr, the place that preaches acceptance, say how sexuality isn't real, and that's its weird. Really, it makes me really frustrated.

Anonymous asked: I've never really felt sexual attraction to people, and when I was younger I just pretended to find guys hot, because all my friends were. But now, I feel more compelled to be with women (not that I've been with either a female or a male, and I'm 19) and I think I find them sexually attractive but I don't know. I don't know what sexual attraction is, because I really...

Anonymous asked: And, another question, do lots of asexual people masturbate? I know that is woefully ignorant, but I do and I love the feel of orgasms but does that have anything to do with asexuality? Because that's a lack of sexual attraction to others, yes?

Anonymous asked: I'm 13 years old and consider myself asexual and aromantic. My family tells me that I'm not because I am too young to know. My stepdad says that asexuality isn't real. But, everyone else my age is having sex and relationship. How should I deal with this. Is 13 too young to know?

Anonymous asked: This year at age 26 I finally found out I'm asexual. I try to be ok about it, but I can't help but doubt myself. Maybe I'm just too unattractive and trying to pretend I'm ok with my lack of attention by saying I don't want sex. Maybe I've just been put off by my first (and only) relationship. Or am I just too picky? These thoughts keep going through my head, as...

moriartyandmorgana asked: I've recently stumbled across some facts about asexuals, and I think I might be one. I'm attracted to males, and I'm fine with relationships, I like the kissing, hand-holding, cuddling, romantic stuff, but I have absolutely no interest in sex, I don't want a sexual relationship of any kind. I would be perfectly happy to never have sex in my life. Am I really asexual and is...

Anonymous asked: Okay, so I'm asexual and I've been trying to get it through my parents' heads, but they don't think it's the case. They think that I have to be normal with a possible medical condition. They think I have low libido and my mom wants me to go to the doctor and talk to a psychiatrist or something. Is there anyway I can convince them I'm NOT abnormal and there are more...

Anonymous asked: I’m asexual. One thing I’ve noticed since becoming asexual, and even a bit before then, is that I am uncomfortable/ fed up with gender norms. I want to be me, a person, not identified as a girl (I might even like to be a guy who can still look like a girl without it being weird to the general public—so right now I’ll stick to gender neutral). Is this something that asexuals...

fuckhitler asked: To start out, I'm asexual biromantic. I discovered I’ve always been asexual, the day after I asked a girl to be my girlfriend. Long story short, we’ve been best friends since 8th grade and always interested in each other. I think it’s only fair to tell her as soon as I can. I just don’t know how to tell her without her assuming I'm not attracted to her, I'm...

Anonymous asked: I have no sexual desires towards any gender/gender identity, I mean I might find people "attractive" but to have sex with someone is just not in my interest. My question is as an asexual person is it normal to still like being physical in the seance of cuddling, hand holding, hugging, etc?

Anonymous asked: Can you know you're asexual without having had a sexual relationship? I never feel physical attraction to people but could that actually be because I haven't met the "right" person or haven't been with someone that way? Or is it just like how people realize they're straight or gay etc. because they know what they are and aren't attracted to? Thanks!

Anonymous asked: Hi, I am an asexual girl and I am old enough to know what i want and don't want... but my mother can't see that thought. I am so scared and I feel like she deserved better.
