I identified as aroace when I was 11 and I was like - wait I'm gay
But I used to think that being ace = being sex repulsed and when I read the actual description. I was like nah. This can't be real.
Person who experiences little to no sexual attraction? Like thats just everyone? No one experiences sexual attraction? Thats absurd.
THATS WHY I REALIZED I WAS ACE WHEN I WAS 15 DUDE. COZ I DIDN'T KNOW SEXUAL ATTRACTION WAS A REAL THING.
Still think I'm still a leeeeetle bit aro (I've been trying to figure it out for over an year, but to no avail)
SORRY FOR THE YAP💔💔💔
EXACTLY!!!!
i simply didn't notice anything was different, to the point where i assumed i had crushes (which were actually entirely platonic). so i had no clue why everyone found it so exciting?!?! cause it's just like all other friends?!?! nope, apparently not !!
i could never tell if my repulsion was because of being young or ace, until i realised my "we're too young for relationships/inappropriate jokes" thought process was due to personal feelings, when everyone else was FINE SOMEHOW
my main confusion was me mistaking "oh they're friendly!" or "they have a nice looking face" for actual attraction. when i think i was just being appreciative (which is just UNNECESSARILY CONFUSING?!?)
(good luck figuring it out - it's such a blurred line it's so difficult, but i assumed my whole viewpoint was just "no" and went with it)
DWWW I LOVE THE YAP!!!
