Serb Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I’m 15 and have been sort of identifying as ace for about a year now and have just recently been looking at AVEN. I tried coming out to my parents one day but they brushed it aside and I haven’t told any of my friends out of fear of rejection. So I’m kind of just looking for a safe place to talk to people about asexuality. Also if anyone knows a good forum for discussing aromanticism, please let me know. Link to post Share on other sites

TheAP Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Welcome! There's Arocalypse; the forums aren't very active, but there's also a discord server that's more active. Link to post Share on other sites
Ousel Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Welcome to Aven! 🍰 Have some cake. It's sounds like a lot of underage folks get dismissive reactions from friends and family, even from LGBTQIA folks sometimes. I bet that if I had come out at that age I would have gotten the same reaction. And that was a long time ago! (shh) Hang in there, it gets better. Link to post Share on other sites
Lichley Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Welcome! Maybe if you help them understand the concept they’ll understand it more? Either that or you end up with some handy links anyway. http://www.asexualityarchive.com/a-parents-guide-to-asexuality/ https://www.vox.com/culture/2018/3/26/16291562/asexuality-tv-history-bojack-shadowhunters-game-of-thrones http://www.asexualityarchive.com/asexuals-on-coming-out-experience/ http://maaple.org.uk/ Link to post Share on other sites
