I will never forget the time I heard someone make fun of the guy I had a crush on by saying "he's probably asexual or something" while I was sad because I knew for a fact that he wasn't, so I figured I had no chance with him since he'd want sex and I didn't.

They unknowingly chose the most ironic insult possible, from my perspective

#also made me feel like shit but in retrospect i understand they probably would have been embarrassed and apologised if they'd found out #that there was in fact an asexual person in the room with them #it was just an ill-chosen way to comment on his eccentric and standoffish nature #however that was how i found out asexuality was now known outside of the internet too so it was a bit of a slap to the face #ah 2012 (i think)#file this under reasons why ace positivity will always be important to me even though i don't identify as such anymore #technically still somewhere on the outer edges of the spectrum i suppose #;
