Confessions Of An Asexual Woman

asexual

To be honest, it feels completely normal. I can’t imagine being any other way, therefore I can’t say definitively how it is so different from not being asexual. Not to say that I haven’t perceived some differences while growing up.

While in school, most notably middle school, when relationships were becoming more and more of interest with my peers, I always wondered what the point was. Because I felt no internal stirrings of being physically interested in anyone I misguidedly perceived that everyone else was feeling nothing, which lead me to wonder “Why”. It was hard for me to think of an end game.

14 People Share Their Best Tips For Handling Social Situations Better

1. When sharing your opinion on subjective topics, music, movies, food, etc. There is no need to be hostile. The music doesn’t suck, you just don’t like it. The pizza topping isn’t horrible, you just don’t like it. People’s opinions of you won’t decline if you’re just sharing your likes/dislikes

Discovering this seemingly silly tip a couple years ago has been so helpful for me in becoming a more likeable person. I always wondered why no one asked for my opinion on things and it wasn’t until I was told this exact thing that it hit me. Now a couple years later, I see I got the habit from my Dad.

Picture of the Day

When “The Blair Witch Project” was released in 1999, many thought it was much more than a horror movie. In the first example of viral marketing for a movie, the film’s producers sold their fake documentary as a real one — complete with a website that featured faux police and news reports about the story’s missing victims. The movie’s IMDB page even listed its three actors as missing or presumed dead.

Life Advice From A 60-Year-Old Man

(photo: @wadeaustinellis)

I keep hearing about “adulting” and how hard it is. Well, it is hard and doesn’t get easier.

At almost 60, I still get scared, overwhelmed and don’t know what to do sometimes. I still have sleepless nights and wonder what the hell I’m going to do about some situations.

The difference is I can use my experience in prior situations to assess the current one. Or, even better, I have a circle of family/friends/professionals that I can go to for advice. Ones that I trust, not the one on the next barstool or such.
