I(f20) know it sounds kinda dramatic and maybe I’m just not seeing the right people and I’m young n all but it really is starting to feel like no one will like me as I am. I have been in a few relationships where I’ve told my partner I’m ace, they seem to accept it for about two minutes before they’re back to asking for sex. If I’m meeting someone new as soon as I tell them it’s an immediate shut down of anything more moving forward. I don’t expect people to completely give up sex to be with me that would be unfair but I just want to feel loved without thinking I’m holding something back. I want to feel loved as I am and not hate a part of me I can’t control. The obvious answer would be dating another asexual person but considering I’m young and at an age where everyone is sexually active (and also just the fact I’ve never met another asexual person) that I feel like there’s no chance. I’ve tried that ace dating app but it was either people who lived in completely different countries or men twenty years older than me; no hate, just not what I want.
I guess I just want to know if anyone else is feeling like this too or if there’s anyone on here in happy relationships that could bring me a bit of hope. Thank you.
