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 have huge mental/physical attractions to celebrities and I love reading love stories. Would I be asexual or..?

I guess the question you should ask yourself is: do you experience sexual attraction?

You’re not the only person who’s 20 and hasn’t been in a relationship yet. It’s not uncommon to be attracted to celebrities and love stories, etc. Plenty of asexuals have celebrity crushes, as, of course, do plenty of non-aces. Do you feel that you experience sexual attraction and are, perhaps, avoiding relationships for one reason or another, or that you are possibly asexual? It could take some time to figure that out, because it is not always an easy process for people to determine whether they are asexual. Good luck! If you need any more advice, we’re here! <3
