Ah, well so, firstly thanks for reading this :)

Damn, this is super scary, even as Anonymous, but here goes.

I haven't told anyone that I'm asexual, and I'm not sure when I'll get the confidence to do so, but I'm proud that I've come to the (sort of) realisation myself.

It was only a few months ago that I even fully understood and knew what asexuality even was.

When I first heard about it, I decided to do some research, as I was unsure of what it was. After watching videos on and reading up on what asexuality was on websites, I found myself feeling happy and that it actually really clicked with me. I remember thinking, "this is me" And I began thinking that I may be demisexual.

However recently I have found that asexual is a better fit for me. It feels right, and like I have finally found what fit's me. Sometimes I worry in case I do find someone sexually attractive one day(although I find this unlikely), and that is what is holding me back from fully accepting myself as asexual.

I also worry that I'll never find someone who will be willing to be with me, as I likely wouldn't like to have sex. This gets me down, however I try not to dwell on it.

I'm still figuring out my romantic attraction, but I hope I'll get there soon, I know there is no rush.

So that is my story so far :) I hope you find this helpful if you're going through something similar :) I just needed a safe space to share, and I knew this would be the right place to come.
