Problem, Young Reapers? *Trollface* or "Asexuals in Aromantic... uh... Other"

The first three tests (Microbiology, Anatomy, Funeral Directing) went incredibly well. The one we had on embalming on Friday... not so well. Fortunately, I'm not the only one

Hello :) I haven't commented here much in a while, but this entry is pretty interesting to me. If you don't mind answering, what is it like being asexual? What do you think are the differences between being a sexual and non-sexual being? I'm honestly very curious because I've always been interested in human sexuality (and you've seemed like a friend to me online). if you don't want to answer that's perfectly okay ! <3
best wishes <3 :)

Nah, I don't mind answering. Or trying to

I like the electricity analogy!

Really cool analogy!

MMkay, what about hanging out with this person in the complete nonsexual as friends mode? Or are you really introverted to where that isn't something you like to do? When I think about the countless hours I have spent with people I don't fuck and won't ever fuck, because it's not that type of relationship, it tallies up pretty high.

So long as it didn't cut into my precious alone time, then yes! Alone time is very important. That's when I get to do fun things like go to the woods and LJ and re-read vampire RPG.

Another example for scale: I consider any time I'm on Facebook as cutting into my alone time.

[x_creepy_doll_x]

lol. You do sound like a superduper-introvert.

I'm quite Fluttershy, apparently.

Hello ^^

I personally don't think you should censor yourself if questioned. You have a right to explain that you are asexual and what that may mean for you. Hopefully they won't descriminate. If they are not open minded though, you must hold your head high and represent..

I understand its difficult though, since unlike gay, straight, lesbian, bi..asexuality is not well known...but it should be.

As for the girl, you can become a really good friend of her. Hopefully she will understand your stance when it comes time to explain later on. As a straight girl with no interest in other girls, I still acknowledge some girls are cute or beautiful, but I simply want to be their friend.

Thanks, Janay!

Problem is, it takes a long while to explain myself and most people do not have the time for it. So it's easier to say nothing.

Maybe "Hey! Wanna hang out? This isn't a pass; I would just like to have coffee and enjoy a good conversation. You interested?"

Then the explanations can happen later in a relaxed setting over coffee. Or tea, whatevs.

Ya, I agree. I have no problems saying someone is cute, male or female.

[harpsi_fizz]

Not the same because I'm not jealous of you being friends with someone else, but I'd be jealous if someone and I were not dating each other a little less than we were not dating everyone else in the world and then Someone started not dating someone else a little less than they were not dating the rest of the world in addition to not dating me. Unless this person and I were also not dating a little less than we were not dating the rest of the world. But it's very hard to quantify that.

So it's not the same.

If you draw a picture for me, I will put it in that picture frame. I don't really like having pictures of people around. To intense. Feels like they're looking at me.

You are awesome. That's all I got to say.
