I was tagged by dying to be different 

Sexual Orientation: Straight Favorite Color: Purple Lucky Number: Don’t think I have one, but I like 8. Last Thing I googled: Google Maps Javascript Api (i’m making a website that I think the denizens of tumblr might be quite interested in... got a long way to go though, so don’t hold your breath) First Word That Comes To mind: coffee One Place That Makes Me Happy: New Zealand Favourite Characters: Hermione Granger, Sam Vimes, Elizabeth Bennett, Arthur Dent, Granny Weatherwax Favourite Food: Lasagne, Cheese Favourite Drink: Coffee, Tea Favourite Book: Masquerade by Terry Pratchett, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. Dream Wedding: Probably in my parents backyard, or at a beach. I don’t have big wedding fantasies, I really haven’t spent too much time thinking about it. Dream Job: Writing... stuff, I think, knowing what you want to do with your life is over-rated.

Finally Figured Out How to Say My Sexuality

So I think I've finally come to the conclusion that I am somewhat of a straight-edge asexual with heterosexual leanings. I only rarely get attracted, but on if I do it is always for a cishet guy. So hence the heterosexual leaning. Straight-edge just means I don't want to engage in many activities that could harm my body and mind, such as smoking, drinking, or doing other drugs. I am not a very sexual person when it comes to other people, but if I do try sex one day it will be with someone that I love and trust with my body. I just have to keep reminding myself that labels like this are not meant to be restrictive and exclusive. This is the label that I find I relate to most, therefore I may use it if I wish. :) Thanks tumblr, you're always helping me explore myself. Thanks to shayminsalad especially. Thanks for helping me learn more about asexuality. Your recent post answering a tumblr survey contained the words "straight edge" which I looked up on urban dictionary and found it described me really well. So you've been a big help helping me in my questioning! I have only had a tumblr for like two weeks and it has really opened my eyes to a lot about myself. So thank you, tumblr.
