Hello guys! It’s pride month!!!!!! Since it’s pride month, I thought it was the perfect time to talk about my experiences being aro/ace and bisexual. One thing I’d like to note is that I am in the closet currently irl about being bisexual. My parents are- how do I put this nicely, not the best-like at all. They aren’t horrible, but not good either. So I’ve been pretty scared to tell them that. Anyways let’s get into the story’s! Aro/ace stories- Story 1: so when I was in kindergarten, I remember hearing all the girls talk about their crushes (I don’t know why, but anyways) and I realized I didn’t have one (still don’t and never will) in my kid mind I thought that I had to pick a kid to be my crush or I’d be failing at life for some reason. I was very- logically in my selection and chose this blonde kid. He was the top student, everyone was his friend, and he always had his clip on green. I didn’t actually care about him in the slightest, but now I didn’t have that pressure anymore. The fun part was that I ACTUALLY told the kid and I’m pretty sure I scared him. Story 2: when I was in elementary school, I had A LOT of friends that were boys to the point of everyone thinking I liked them which I didn’t and I said I didn’t multiple times. I never liked any of them in a crush way because I just saw them as friends which for some reason is impossible to think about in other peoples minds. I just related to them more than the girl because I didn’t like any of the stereotypical girly activities that everyone expects girls to like, and because most of the girls were pretty mean. I still am friends with quite a few boys from elementary school. Story 3: in middle school, more people expect you to have a crush which really bothered me (still does) My family and a few of my friends kept asking about if I had a crush which I always replied with “no, I don’t like anyone.” After a while people started to not believe me which really really bugged me. Eventually the pressure was too much to bare and I just lied and said my elementary school friend (not going to say his real name) I never actually felt attraction towards him, but that answer seemed to stop everyone’s nagging. Story 4: So I was going somewhere for New Year’s Eve when my sister suggested the game “we listen and we don’t judge” I don’t know why, but in that moment I knew it was the perfect opportunity to tell her about me being aro/ace. After a few rounds I finally gathered the courage to tell her. She seemed supportive at first before asking if I was sure and that I might just haven’t met the right person yet. To put it simply, she doesn’t believe me and actively ignores it -~- Bisexual stories- Story 1: so last year, I was finally exposed to the term bisexual. At first I thought I was definitely not that, but the more I thought about it, the more I started to question. See I won’t be against dating a girl, but at the same time don’t know if that counts as bi. Story 3: I was watching the owl house (favorite show of all time) and started to see lumity. At first I was “cool” but over time I really connected with luz in her bi panic. I do that internally, though at a much lower level. And when seeing her coming out moment, I might have shed a tear of joy. She is definitely my comfort character.
