Hey Pandas, Do You Have Any Questions About Being Aromantic And Or Asexual People? (Closed)

Aromantic- little to no romantic attraction. So this means that we either don't get crushes or you rarely get crushes. Maybe 2 or 3 times in their life (this is referred to as greyromantic) and is part of the aromantic spectrum! Asexuality is the same ideas but instead of crushes its more of a sexual desire that they don't have. I hope this explanation helps a bit

I made a pride pin from an old pin I owned!

I only mention it when people ask me about my sexuality. If asked if I have a partner, I say no and then that I'm not looking. Usually that avoids conversations I don't want to have. But I have to admit, when I say I'm ace these days, it doesn't get much hassle. Years ago I was called frigid for example when ace wasn't a thing yet.

I was 13 almost 14 when I realized I was on the gray ace spectrum.

For most asexual / aromantic people; no. However, there is a type of asexuality called greyasexual or demisexual. This means that it's possible to gain a sexual attraction to someone that you've formed a very close bond to.

There's a thing like that for aromantics too

Hi, I haven't come out to my family yet but I'm out to almost everyone else who I know! Luckily my friends are all very supportive (my friends are all LGBTQ+ except for 1 and he's an ally) so it hasn't changed much! Hopefully it will stay that way. I also haven't haven't had problems with anyone I know that doesn't fit into friends or family. Just a few questions!

For me (fortunately) not much

Most if not some aces probably feel “ace enough”. In my case I knew I was ace but my thinking did not match with it. A microlabel helped me to fit in. However asexual is pretty much enough of a label for coming out

I'm aromantic and I do have a more specific label (cupioromantic look it up) but yes you are correct

You could be asexual! It sounds likely
