Tetus Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Hello everyone! I'm pretty classically an introvert, so this kind of thing is hard for me. That said, I feel completely at sea trying to talk about sex and relationships with any of my close friends or family: all my attempts to try and explain myself kind of devolve into everyone involved being uncomfortable and confused. Without going into the gory details, I lived with someone for a few years, married them, loved being with them, then had the floor drop out from under me when they left about two years ago. I knew not everything was perfect with our sex life, but I was genuinely astonished when we separated, then got divorced. That was when I finally realized that I really, really, really did not understand how important sex was to most people. In any case, while I'm not sure that I completely identify as asexual, I think that I at the very least can commiserate with those who do on some aspects of life. I'm hoping to learn more about the community, the people in it, and, cheesily but no less truly, myself. Also, I'm incredibly awkward about sharing personal stuff so sorryifthisgotweirdokaybye Link to post Share on other sites
