Noticed today that one of them had dyed her hair red-brown and I liked it. My classmate thought I was checking her ass out and didn't believe me when I said I was looking at her hair. I was thinking about the amount of hair dye it must have took to dye her very long hair. Definitely not interested in her ass lol. I'm always looking at people to admire their hairstyle, piercings, tattoos, make up, outfit, things they're wearing of shows/movies/bands I like. I wonder how many of them think I'm checking them out. How does one get looking at a butt out of looking at hair?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Warsaw Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Starting to consider finding some new family members due to this new hobby of theirs of questioning my masculinity and sexuality, and making off color comments about my life and decisions. Not respecting my lifestyle and decisions, and more or less going out of their way to make me uncomfortable knowing that I take comments literally and dwell for hours on them. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It got to the point when I needed to kiss someone on stage, and I just wasn't ready for that. I'm still not ready, in fact. I'm probably lucky that I didn't get too many attraction roles. My ace vibes are probably making professors not assign me those roles. Once I did get one that got turned into a sex scene at the end but fortunately I didn't end up having to do that part. I also question the logic of it. It's a fighting married couple, the guy says that he wants to kill the girl, she says do it then. Instead he kisses her, they're both turned on, quickly trying to unbutton his pants, and the scene ends. So glad I didn't have to do that. 6 hours ago, ExanaZen said: Family: *barges into my room* Have you got a boyfriend yet? Me: ....No? Family: Why not? Me: ...Because I'm asexual.

Another cousin thinks that my uncle is trying to get him a girl so he won't be lonely. He cares too much about his job to have a girl I think. He tried one time and it didn't really work. All his younger siblings are married. Really wonder what's on his mind. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rhaenys Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Asexual Problem. I counsel a student who's of a certain religion where the man can have 4 wives and the husband wants a 2nd wife but the first has to give permission and in order to force her permission he's with holding sex from her and it has her miserable. I had so much trouble relating to that cause I can't wrap my head around the witholding of sex part I had to refer her to the Uni psychologist. There's nothing I can do but I felt bad cause I couldn't empathize. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's turned into a bit of a joke, but that doesn't make me less curious about it. I once overheard my friends talking about a Fleshlight (sex toy for those who don't know) and asked them what they were talking about, because I had heard 'flashlight' and so was really confused by what I was hearing. They spent ages awkwardly debating whether or not to tell me since I was asexual and probably too pure etc, until one finally whispered in my ear. I casually responded "Oh a Fleshlight! I know what those are, I just thought you said flashlight." It was really weird how awkward they felt talking about it compared to me, the asexual. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GryphonLover Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Not exclusively an asexual problem but... wanting really badly to make an overture of friendship with some of the opposite gender that you think would be fun to hang around with, but being too afraid of it looking like flirting. Or worse, you actually do try to be friendly and get a 'sorry, I already have a girlfriend.' There's no such thing as being friends with the opposite sex, then. Silly me. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Soraiko Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Making a friend whose also asexual and worrying that they have a thing for you. It's happened before and that person got overbearing and patronizing, among other things, and this person is pretty similar to the previous person. Having a friend who is also asexual is cool, but I don't want this to happen again. D: Getting asked if it's a date when you go to hang out with someone and then asking if they think it's a date after you say no. I don't know?! I hope they don't think that. Now I have that to worry about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lanti SF Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I left my labcoat in my apt and asked my roommate to grab it. Hopefully she didn't take a look around my room (currently a mess) to see a condom box I got from pride on the floor. It's filled with spare change for the bus. 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
