if I've never been interested in people in any sexual or romantic way like dating but i do feel the need of being hugged or loved by someone, ( i dont care if the person who hugs me is a friend or a relative or a partner it just feels the same.) does this makes me an ace? i have read very little information about it and i cant identify neither as gay or straight. actually i dont even feel like i belong to somewhere, what's so wrong about me?
Nothing's wrong with you! You just haven't figured out how to describe the way you feel yet, and that's totally okay! First, let me start out by saying that romantic attraction and sexual attraction are completely separate and not mutually exclusive. Have you tried looking up aromanticism? It might be that you fit somewhere along that spectrum along with being asexual. Platonic love is also different, which is why you may be a bit confused. I recommend looking up some YouTube videos on aromantism and asexuality. Ash Hardell's sexuality series is pretty good, and I'm sure there are plenty of other LGBT youtubers who talk about it as well. In the end, you're the only person who can really define how you feel. I hope this helped at least a little, best of luck!
