Asexual to Bi/demisexual

I never really adhered to heterosexual norms, I don't identify with LGBT either, I don't ever intend to have kids or conventional marriage, and I always valued personality and intelligence, interests, curiousity, kindness and introspection above physical attraction.

Though I still enjoy physical aspects from an aesthetic perspective and imagination I hold a small yearning for real, tangible emotional connection.

If there were networks or opportunities where this could be explored that would still seem too good to be true.

  • I actually don’t like that we’re secluding different parts of queerness so much. Yes, there are different kinds of people and yes, it is nice to find new terms and language to properly describe certain experiences.
    Nonetheless, most of the time, it doesn’t stop there. It made me feel a bit excluded at times. It made me feel elevated pressure to be able to identify with a certain label. Thankfully, I live in a rather tolerant bubble, where there’s no need to “come out” as anything. I just let myself be. If I like a person, I feel like it’s because I like them as an individual, not because of gender. Those people nearly always happened to be female in the past, but I do think about men the same I do about any gender. Am I pansexual? Judging from the information I have on myself… Technically. Am I sure about it? Of course not, I’ve never even been in a relationship.

    I also strongly feel like I might be asexual. Could that feeling just be there because I’ve never had a relationship? Maybe.

    I’m not going to decide just yet and maybe I’m never going to have a label for everything. It’s fine. I’ll just try my best to fill up my bubble with people who do not care about the answer to those questions.
