It seems like your boyfriend is demisexual. I agree, for people who don't personally know someone who identifies as asexual, they probably have no idea what it is.Sierra @ The Nerdgirl Reviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14988689551994156529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5540391831818595631.post-89879608515798730322016-01-29T05:46:02.587-05:002016-01-29T05:46:02.587-05:00At your service (bows, trips over own feet...) ;)At your service (bows, trips over own feet...) ;)Cee Arr @ Dora Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04074909561530525221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5540391831818595631.post-20345115111932283982016-01-28T23:19:20.971-05:002016-01-28T23:19:20.971-05:00LET ME AT HIM.

My boyfriend struggled with the same thing for such a long time because for a while he felt the same way. I'm not saying it will change for you, but for him he realize it wasn't that he was asexual but it was that he couldn't feel physical attraction unless it meant something to him. I actually think there is another word for it, but I'm not positive. I agree that there needs to be more diversity for this topic alone because I wouldn't even know what it means or that it existed if I hadn't known someone who "identified" with it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01781828287211529221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5540391831818595631.post-16746353027473929042016-01-28T21:14:00.911-05:002016-01-28T21:14:00.911-05:00I CAN'T BELIEVE IT EITHER!!!!

That guy needs to learn some manners and respect others. Asexuality is definitely something that I've never really come across - I've probably only seen it ONCE in TV/books/movies. I don't blame him for not knowing much about it - but his attitude towards you, lack of respect and clear unwillingness to learn much more about it is just ridiculous. I HATE THAT HE WAS SO NICE AT FIRST AND THEN HE TURNED OUT TO BE SUCH A AASDFGHJKL in the end ugh! Diverse media NEEDS TO BE A THING - things like this shouldn't happen!!

If that guy thinks that he'll be able to pick up ANY girls with that attitude, then he is sadly mistaken. I actually talked about something similar recently, about expanding LGBTQA books to talk more about asexuality. It IS a thing that many people don't understand.
