Void_Screamer_907 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Hello AVEN! Name's J.R. and I'm 19. I've been lurking around this site for 3-4 years now thinking that I might be ace but holding back just in case I was a "late bloomer" like my family always told me I was, and because I was scared of being unnatural, or wrong, or ostracized. I kept pushing myself to develop sexual desires or crushes to fit in, but it never felt right. After all of this, I'm proud to say that I identify as Asexual (I may be aro but who knows yet) and that I am happy with who I am. I decided to come out (haha) to the people and community that helped me understand who I am by finally joining forums and community. I did come out as ace to my mother and it could have gone better, not gonna lie. But I'm standing by what I am and how I feel and I'm glad there are others that are like me who understand. So thank you to everyone here who helped me unknowingly just by being on here and creating this community. I feel like I'm no longer invisible and it's time I let my (pride) flag fly!
