you are so valid! i’m ace as well
So today marks the first year where there is an International Asexuality Day.
I don’t think I’ve actually stated my sexuality on here so I’m using today to make it clear.
I am ace, I found the label 5 years ago but have known that the way I view relationships was not “the norm” even at school, all I wanted to do with crushes was to hang out with them, play games and watch movies. I didn’t care about kissing and other intimate ways to show affection. A cuddle on the couch was just as fine, nothing more. I found out that Netflix and chill is very literal with me.
When I did find out that I was Ace, I was scared. Scared that I was broken because throughout my life I was taught by society that sexual attraction was the main driving force in finding a relationship. Sex was an integral part of strengthening a partnership and that it could sell anything from cars to games. With the way it was viewed, I felt lost and confused. I made excuses for myself: maybe I hadn’t found the right one to make me feel that way.
It wasn’t until I found some friends that had an understanding of what it was to be an Ace that I started to accept that part of me. My best friend of 20 years talked me through it and gave me reassurance. Things that I found to be scary now made sense and the fear had been taken away. I am now comfortable enough to say I’m ace if people ask and will show patience when the usual questions come so that they walk away a bit more knowledgeable.
So, to all my fellow Aces remember this:
You are not broken
You are capable of love and deserving of it
You are so very valid
No matter where you sit on the scale, you are here. Stand tall
