Sero, are you trying to invalidate my sexuality?? I have never looked at someone and said "I'd do that" if that's what allosexuals even say. I have never felt the need to have sex with someone like why is that a big deal. I've also never wanted to be in a romantic relationship either, for the same fucking reason.

I'm just saying asexuality is very rare, while aromantic is non-existent.
And what is allosexual?

Asexuality and aromanticism occurs in 1% of the global population. Assuming there's 7 billion people in the world, that means there's approximately 70 million people who are ace or aro.
Allosexual means that you experience attraction to others and is basically the opposite of asexual.

Allosexual just sounds like regular attraction.
Why the hell does it need a name?
I understand that and I respect your sexuality.
It's just rare and a lot of people can be faking this for attention, so I'm naturally going to take things like this with a grain of salt.

Allosexual is just used to differentiate between asexual and non-asexual.
I get that it's rare but that doesn't mean you automatically have to say that it doesn't exist and try and convince me of that.

Not saying you aren't, I'm just sceptical.
Plus, you have little to no need to prove or justify your sexuality to me.

There's psychological research that supports the idea that sexual attraction differs from romantic attraction. Asexual people have existed throughout human history. Also there is little to gain from "faking" asexuality or aromanticism, except for apparently being called out in a FS chat.

Also maybe u haven't found the right person I mean I look at a lot of people and I can't imagine myself being with them, it's kinda gross but that doesn't mean I don't like people

Asexuality is a different experience for everyone, and it exists on a scale kind of with several different. For me I've never really been drawn towards anyone in a more intimate kind of way so I just identify as ace, but I do still find some people nice looking or have an "aesthetic attraction" to them which can be different for every asexual as well.
In terms of the Second question, I would likely just tell the person I wasn't interested in them, if that was the case, as not to drag them on.
Hope that helps some :b

I'm going to write a story about a girl who falls in love with a guy who's rejecting her love. She is going mad trying to prove herself but he's actually aromantic and asexual.

Ok honestly though, I can't stand people who are like "give me a chance" like no I'm not broken you can't fucking fix me go away

I'm asexual, and homoromantic. I'm in a relationship, but I've made sure my girlfriend understands that I am not interested in anything sexually.
creativedragonbaby · 6 years ago
Ok well can u answer the questions at the top @chilledtothebone?
chilledtothebone · 6 years ago
Hm. If someone was sexually attracted to me, I'd probably just flat out tell them I'm not interested. If they persisted in their attempts, I'd go full socially-awkward mode and just avoid them.
