My accompanist: This piece needs a story. Think of someone you are in love with and you can't wait to see.

Me, an aromantic: ...okay. *plays again beautifully*

My accompanist: What were you thinking about while you were playing, if you don't mind me asking?

Me: I love to eat. I was thinking about the perfect meal.

You are allowed to stop talking to people who make you uncomfortable about being asexual. You are allowed to unfollow people who are rude about ace people. You are allowed to block people for acephobia. Your comfort matters.

Here’s to all the asexuals whose feelings about sex fluctuate

Here’s to the asexuals who flit between being indifferent and repulsed and wanting to have sex

Here’s to the asexuals who never know how they’re going to feel the next day

Here’s to the asexuals who have to awkwardly ask their friends not to use the sexual humour they’re usually fine with today because they’re feeling repulsed

Here’s to the asexuals who rarely feel sex driven and don’t know what to do with themselves when they do

Here’s to the asexuals who usually feel repulsed and are uncomfortable or distressed when feeling sex driven

Fun Fact:

Eating cake does in fact, make us aces stronger

[allyitis]

if you’re super young and you identify as ace or aro, and later that changes–that’s okay. it doesn’t mean it’s a “phase” and you’re not feeding the stereotype. you might have totally different definitions for your attractions at several stages of your life, and it doesn’t mean you were lying or wrong or trying to cling to something you’re not. it just means you changed, as we all do, and that’s okay.

Learning more abt your asexuality or aromanticism as you go along is okay. In fact its great! Look at you, you’re growing! You get stronger when you learn and damn I’m so proud of you all. We’re all still growing and that’s okay because we get to support one another when we do, you’re doing alright.
