Hello and welcome to AVEN.🍰 -
PS games are something I'd like to experience more sometime in the future. I was way too carried away with PC gaming and Nintendo consoles to be able to keep up with the rest, but there were plenty of gems in the past, especially in the PS2 era.

How do you handle realising that people experience romantic/sexual attraction?

It's an infrared telescope situated at Earth's second Lagrange point 1.5 million kilometers away, or at least 3x the walk to the chemist. -

Frameshift07 replied to Aleria's topic in Romantic and Aromantic Orientations
Don't get me wrong, I still don't understand the allo experience; I'd need time with the JWST allocating in order to find what it is that makes the stakes so high for allo people! -

What’s it like, for you, too not know who you are?
verily-forsooth-egads replied to binary suns's topic in Gender Discussion
It wasn't like that for me. I didn't like the way gender labels made people think they knew things about me. Rejecting them made me feel more free to be myself in any way that came naturally. -

Suddenly asexual?
Frameshift07 replied to Lucimoon123's topic in For Sexual Partners, Friends and Allies
Share him this, which explains the difference between sexual attraction, romantic attraction, libido, sex-favourability/indifference/aversion, et cetera. Also check out the glossary which includes obscure microlabels such as cupiosexuality and aceflux. -

Mult replied to Aleria's topic in Romantic and Aromantic Orientations
Honestly I still don't get it. When I reject someone, I can't comprehend why they sometimes still try to get me to like them in the romantic way. It doesn't make sense me. Like, move on -
What’s it like, for you, too not know who you are?
Sarah-Sylvia replied to binary suns's topic in Gender Discussion
I guess I just felt something was missing in my teens. I'm not sure i'd term it as not knowing myself though, maybe a part of myself. I feel like even with being trans though i've always known myself, it was more that something was missing and time went by how i felt around what was missing grew. Until i acknowledged to myself how I really felt And I think there's always more about ourselves we can discover or realize. -
Well, a celibate Syrian man once wanted to be with me. I didn't reciprocate, but I imagine it would have gone well if I had.

Birding / nature / photography ~ Older Asexuals for light walking and hiking nature adventures ~
Myssterry replied to Earthling's topic in Older Asexuals
The nesting blue and great tits in the nest boxes in the garden are frantically busy at the moment. The young have hatched and are calling from the nest box. Walking past a nest box that is packed with little nestlings calling and almost making the nest box vibrate with their activity is very special. The nest box is a woodcrete one that protects them from predators but they will still be at risk when they fledge. I hang the nest boxes on the apple trees, and the blue tits always claim one and the great tits the other. The boxes aren't far apart - just a few feet, but these two species se -

Aromantic?Confused?Scared?
Sarah-Sylvia replied to Meowclipse's topic in Romantic and Aromantic Orientations
If you view someone as just a friend then that doesn't sound like you have much romantic feeling for that person ;p. I guess the question is if you can see yourself liking someone in a way where you want to be more than friends. -
How do YOU handle being aro/ace with a partner who isn't?
Yuna McHill replied to Leesii-Ta's topic in Asexual Relationships
Hey, dear! I'm panromantic asexual (aegosexual) myself and I've been in a relationship for 1 week with a boy who is allo and hetero. As a panromantic, I can tolerate things like kissing, hugging and touching in areas above the belt. Even though we've been together for one week, I do dread that he might want to be more intimate. I think I'm fluctuating between sex-repulsed and sex-neutral, but I'm so not ready to get laid, possibly never or if yes, then I want it to be with a girl. I sincerely hope that I can talk to him at length about it, that he accepts my aceness and that I was touched -
This is absolutely not fair on you, and you might want to think about establishing some boundaries for your emotional safety and wellbeing while you figure out what's going on. Do you have any friends or family that you could call on for support? If so, don't be afraid to ask for help if needed. If he has physical and mental health problems, those can certainly be contributing and/or causative to recent behavior. Has he had these difficulties for a while, or has something new happened (new diagnosis, new medication, medication change, new symptoms, worsening of symptoms, etc.)? Are
