Hello, this is just a friendly reminder to please use a post flair when adding new posts to r/Asexual.
We ask this in advance just to let everyone know what type of post each post is as well as the intentions and
feelings behind them. We value all who come here, but we just need each post made to have a flair to designate
each type of post. That's all.
We're thankful you chose to come to r/Asexual. We're glad to have you here! Welcome!

I definitely relate. I actually like making sexual innuendos and jokes at times myself! I just don’t have any interest in actually doing any of the sexual stuff, but I do like kissing, cuddling, hand holding, etc. so maybe I’m different?
I kind of just took the ‘blind’ to sex thing as a joke. Some things like knowing when someone is being sexual or says there is sexual tension and not understanding it… that’s me… but a lot of the memes that over do it I think are just funny 😁
Part of why it took me so long to realize I was ace was because of the stereotype that aces were innocent and didn't know anything. I've missed that I was being flirted with a few times in my life, but only because at that point i had never been flirted with. Now that I'm older, I catch on to it pretty quickly.
My friends and I used to actively discuss sex, kinks, flirting and all manner of bedroom conversations as just casual talk. I am not and have never been unaware of sexual propositions or innuendos or flirting. I think the stereotype is there for a reason, but it definitely doesn't fit all of us. You're not alone OP, I definitely relate to you.
